Comparing Curt and etrailer Hitch Receivers For 2022 Kia Telluride
Question:
I am looking for a trailer hitch receiver to add to my 2022 Kia Telluride. I see there is a Curt and etrailer option though both look the same. Which one do you recommend?

Expert Reply:
You are correct that there are two trailer hitch receiver options for your 2022 Kia Telluride, the Curt # C13420 and the etrailer # e95ZR. Both of these hitches are very similar in the sense that they both have roughly the same installation difficulty due to both sharing a very similar design, and both having a 750lb tongue weight rating and 5,000lb trailer weight rating.
However I recommend going with the Curt # C13420 due to it being made in the USA and in our experience the Curt hitches have a tougher powder coat finish to keep the hitch looking great for years to come while better preventing rust and corrosion.
If you will be towing a trailer with your Telluride you will also need a vehicle wiring harness # CU94FR, and a ball mount, hitch ball, and hitch pin and clip which can all be found in the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900.
I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
