The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C77NR will be the receiver which fits your 2023 Kia Niro hybrid. The Draw-Tite # DT79YR will not fit your Niro.
The Curt Powered Tail Light Converter # C59236 will give you a 4-way flat connector. This is the common connector found on small trailers you may tow. It will also allow for Auxiliary Lights # C53201 if you use a hitch mounted accessory like a bike rack which can impair the view of your tail lights. view full answer...

We do indeed have a 2 inch hitch that works with the 2022 Kia Niro PHEV. You'll want to use the Curt 13497 Class III hitch, which we carry as part # C37BR. If your Thule rack is compatible with a 1-1/4 inch hitch, you'll want to use a reducer sleeve like # e63YR.

I have a possible solution for you.
First, though, the Fit Kit for Thule Podium-Style Roof Rack Feet, part # TH57JV, is a fit for your 2017 Kia Niro. However, it is not compatible with the AeroBlade Edge crossbars. The kit required for those is no longer available.
The fit kit I mentioned above, part # TH57JV, will work with the Evo Flush Rail Feet, part # TH710601, and the 47 Inch WingBar Evo Crossbars, part # TH711220.
This will give you a complete roof rack with aero-style crossbars.... view full answer...
Yes, the Replacement M8 T-Bolt part # 853-5715 will fit properly within the channels on the Thule Evo WingBar Crossbars. If you are looking for the correct Thule Evo WingBar System to use on your 2019 Kia Niro then you will need to obtain either part # TH711220 or part # TH711200 for the crossbars, part # TH460R for the mounting feet, and part # THKIT4076 for the vehicle specific fit kit. This system contains some of the most least noisy crossbars on the market and it installs using the... view full answer...
The Curt Trailer Hitch part # C13329 for the 2018 Kia Niro does require the exhaust shield to be removed during installation or the hitch will not fit into place. It not a piece that can be reinstalled because there will not be enough room between the exhaust and the hitch for hitch to fit into place. However, the metal hitch will now act as a heat shield for your exhaust. You are not removing the main heat shield between the exhaust and the vehicle so there is not anything to worry about... view full answer...
We can get your 2017 Kia Niro set up with a trailer hitch receiver, wiring harness and rest of the parts needed so you can safely tow a small trailer for your move. The hitch does not come with the harness, ball mount, or hitch ball, but I can tell you exactly what you will need, including the Curt hitch you mentioned.

The Draw Tite hitch part # 36600 that fits your 2022 Kia Niro electric also fits versions with the gas engine which is why instructions mention exhaust. That step in your case would just need to be skipped. view full answer...
For your 2023 Kia Niro Hybrid you will need the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C77NR. I have linked the installation instructions below which will help you with the installation and where you will need to trim your lower fascia. This is a class III receiver. view full answer...
It will not, unfortunately the trailer hitches we offer for the 2021 Kia Niro aren't compatible with plug in hybrid electric vehicles A/K/A PHEV's as the structure at the rear of the vehicle is different enough that the hitch won't fit.
If you were needing a hitch to carry bikes, I'd recommend a trunk mounted bike rack, like the Yakima FullBack 2-bike model, part # Y02634 or for a 3-bike model, use # Y02633. I've linked to a demonstration video for the Yakima FullBack trunk mounted bike... view full answer...
I called Yakima to confirm.
Unfortunately, the JayLow Kayak Carrier, part # Y04073, will not fit around the Ridgeline Towers, part # Y00145. The inner portion can allow it to go over the tower, but there isn't enough space to secure it with the other bracket. It wouldn't be safe to attempt this.
However, the JayLow can carry two kayaks, so you may be able to mount the carrier on the inside of the rack and carry both of your kayaks in that way. If you have three, you can measure the amount... view full answer...
I have a solution for you. If the width of your crossbars on your 2019 Kia Niro measure less than 3/4 of an inch tall, the For the Malone Cargo12 Rooftop Cargo Box - 12 cu ft - High Gloss Gray # MPG901 will not fit your crossbars. In order to know for sure, I recommend measurement the height of your crossbars to make sure they fall between 3/4 - 1-3/8 inches.
If you find that you need a cargo box with more maximum width and height for the crossbars, I recommend the Thule Pulse Medium Rooftop... view full answer...
The clearance restriction your 2022 Kia Niro has is a Class S restriction which means the chains have to be less than 12 mm overall thickness above the tire which the pewag Servo RS # PWRS74 chains are so they would work well for you and not cause interference. view full answer...
I do have some insight for you but there are officially no confirmed trailer hitch fit options for a 2020 Kia Niro EV. That said, we did hear back from one customer who was able to install the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13329 on their Kia Niro EV. I have attached the review they gave below but I do not have any further information of the modifications required nor can I recommend them. view full answer...
As long as you have a hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver like the # 36600 on your 2023 Kia Niro you can use the # e93YR. Keep in mind, this is only for accessories and will reduce the capacity of your hitch by 50%. view full answer...
The Curt hitch part # C13329 that you referenced has been confirmed as a fit for your 2017 Kia Niro non-plug-in hybrid and would work great. view full answer...
I have a great alternative bike rack for your Lectric 2.0 XP 3-inch fat bike. Unfortunately, with your fenders and rear platform, I do not recommend the Saris SuperClamp HD 2 Bike Platform Rack - 2" Hitches # SAR44VR because the wheel-mount ratcheting hooks will increase the risk of damage or cracking to your fenders during transport.
With that being said, the safest way to transport your bike via a hitch is by a frame-mount attachment method. For a great alternative, I recommend the... view full answer...
I contacted the manufacturer and there is not an option that will allow you to use the Thule AeroBlade Edge Crossbars on your 2023 Kia Niro.
The Fit Kit for Thule Evo Flush Roof Rack Feet # TH57JV you asked about, which works with the Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH710601 does work with the AeroBlade crossbars but they do not work with your 2023 Kia Niro.
We do not currently have an option from Thule for your 2023 Kia Niro, but we do have an option from Yakima.

The wiring harness fits we have for the 2018 Kia Niro, which include Curt part # C56376 and Tekonsha part # 118749 that you purchased, specifically exclude fitment on the plug-in hybrid version of the car. You'll see this notice on the linked page. If you have the plug-in hybrid we do not have a trailer wiring harness for it.
