Michael, for your 2020 Kia Sportage I'd recommend going with the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e72TR. This hitch has a 3,500 lbs weight capacity, a 2" receiver so it'll be compatible with just about any hitch accessory, and is made in the USA. view full answer...

The Draw-Tite Class 3 Round Tube Trailer Hitch # 76128 you're looking at is actually not intended for the Hybrid models, so I can't confirm if it'll work with the kick sensor, but I can say that we have had a customer use the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98848 and says the kick sensor works without an issue.
This one has a bit lower weight ratings (525 lb tongue weight, 3,500 lb GTW), has a bolt on install just like the hitch you were originally looking at, and is made in the USA. view full answer...
I recommend the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System # EQ37140ET for towing your Rockwood 8263MBR. This hitch system is rated for a trailer up to 14,000lbs with a tongue weight of 1,000-1,400lbs.

I checked with the manufacturer and Curt trailer hitch balls, like item # C36BR you were looking at, are made of steel and then chrome plated.
This hitch ball is designed to work with the Curt Friction Sway Control for Weight Distribution Systems item # 17200. view full answer...
