Recommended Trailer Hitch and 4-Way Wiring Harness For a 2022 Kia Seltos
Question:
Do they make a trailer hitch for my 2022 Kia Seltos?
asked by: Victor N
Expert Reply:
Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C65FR will fit your 2022 Kia Seltos. This is a class I receiver that is rated for 200lbs of tongue weight and 2,000lbs trailer towing capacity. Be sure to not exceed any limits given from Kia for your Seltos.
The receiver has a 1-1/4" opening and Curt suggests their Drawbar # C45521 which has a 2-5/8" rise and length of 7-1/4" for hauling a trailer. You should measure the difference from your trailer that you will be towing to the top of the receiver which we found to be 13" when we installed on on a 2021 Seltos in our shop. You will need either a 1-7/8" # C40001, or 2" # C40018 ball for connecting your trailer to the ball mount.
If you are going to use the receiver for carrying a hitch mounted accessory such as a bike rack or cargo carrier you will need the Curt Cam Buckle Stabilizing Strap # 18050 to stabilize the load.
I recommend the Curt Wiring Harness # C89KR to give your Seltos a 4-way flat connector. This connector will operate the lights on small trailers as well as allow you to use Auxiliary Lights # C53201 with any hitch mounted accessory that will impair the clear sight of your tail lights.
