The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C77NR will fit the 2023 and 2024 Kia Niro PHEV. Gas models require lowering the emissions canister so the hitch can fit. We have only had the one instance where someone felt the need to completely remove it, but they reinstalled it after. Complete removal is not necessary. It looks like the PHEV does use some gasoline so I would expect to have to lower the canister during installation. view full answer...
Hi James,
Even with your e-bike weighing only 38lbs the compatible trunk-mounted bike racks for your 2021 Kia Niro PHEV unfortunately just aren't going to have enough capacity. Even though you'd only be using one of the spots on the rack the extra weight is going to wear on the rack and eventually break it and you'd be without a warranty. Instead you'll need a roof rack:
