Expert Answers about Kia Telluride


  • Best Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2021 Kia Telluride
  • There are a pair of trailer hitch receivers that fit your 2021 Kia Telluride, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13420 and the etrailer Hitch Receiver # e95ZR. Between these two hitches, the best is the etrailer because it does not require as much trimming of the fascia length-wise (so it will be a bit less noticeable) The two hitches are otherwise extremely similar, apart from the glossier finish of the Curt compared to the more more subtle-looking powder coat finish of the etrailer. Not...

  • Which Stealth Hitch Part Number for 2020 Kia Telluride Comes with All Wiring and Hitch Accessories
  • The Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring for Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # 391CONVPT5L is an upgrade kit for a Stealth hitch that came only with the opening for a hitch accessory like a ball mount. So it looks like you have a 2020 Kia Telluride and that would mean you would want this kit if you had bought the # 391KIATELL20 which comes with just the accessory hitch opening accessory. If what you really wanted was all of it together as one part number you'd just want the...

  • Recommended Roof Rack for a Kayak Carrier On a 2023 Kia Telluride
  • I recommend the Thule WingBar Evo roof rack for your 2023 Kia Telluride. You will need the Crossbars # TH711420, Feet # TH710601 and Fit Kit # TH77JV to fit your flush mounted roof rails. I prefer these rails as they have the 2 piece rubber strip which will allow you to use the channel mounted accessories like the Thule Hull-A-Port Aero Kayak Roof Rack # TH849000.

  • Does Curt Echo Mobile Brake Controller Have to Draw Power from Battery Directly
  • I copied the text of the answer page I made that you referenced below, but you don't want to power the brake controller from anywhere but the battery directly as the circuit you mentioned would not have the amperage required to power the Echo # C51180 and also because powering it from the battery bypasses the vehicle wiring which allows you to not have to worry about anything happening to the vehicle wiring in the event of a short or overdraw. So the easiest to install brake controller...

  • How Can I Carry Three 65 Lbs E-bikes With My 2021 Kia Telluride
  • I have a solution for you that will allow you to carry three 65 lbs e-bikes on your 2021 Kia Telluride. My recommendation is using the Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer - 7-1/2' Long - 1,640 lbs, part # K2MMT5X7. The trailer has a ramp and it tilts to aid in the loading and unloading. It has a maximum payload capacity of 1,640 lbs and the trailer itself weighs 451 lbs. Once you have the trailer, you will need three of the Thule Insta-Gater Pro Truck Bed Bike Rack - 1 Bike,...

  • Recommended Roof Rack And Roof Basket For 2021 Kia Telluride With Naked Roof
  • Since your 2021 Kia Telluride has a naked roof without side rails, I recommend going with Thule SquareBar Evo Crossbars - Steel - 60" Long - Qty 2 # TH712500. You'll also need the appropriate Feet # TH710501 and Fit Kit # TH98ZE. Since you mentioned adding a basket, I would look into the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 49" x 40" x 6" - 150 lbs item # TH859XT. This is a popular and very nice option that will fit your roof very well. I attached a few demonstration videos or...

  • How To Load Bikes Onto The Saris Freedom Bike Rack SA4412B
  • You are likely referring to the Curt Cam Buckle Stabilizing Strap for Hitch-Mounted Accessories - 61" x 1" # 18050. Curt recommends using this strap on some of their trailer hitch receivers, mainly class 1 receivers. This would aid in supporting the bikes on the carrier. This is more than enough support for your bikes and bike rack and you would not need any other straps to add to this configuration. Bikes are very easy to load onto the Saris Freedom.

  • Will the Yakima Big Catch Rotate on Yakima Round Bars
  • Yes the Yakima BigCatch Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs part # Y04091 will work on your Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer. To prevent them from moving they are easy to tighten down and get really secure. With that said there is the potential for them to rotate if you put a lot of pressure on them since it is a round bar it is something that we see from time to time. You will be able to tighten them down more but I do not want to tell you that no matter what happens they will never rotate. I've...

  • Best Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2022 Kia Telluride LX
  • For the best hitch that fits your 2022 Kia Telluride LX, I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e45ZR. This is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver. What sets this hitch apart from others is the matte black powder coat finish. This finish provides rust protection and also hides dirt and scratches better when compared to a glossy finish. This hitch has a bolt-on installation and is made in the USA. If you plan on doing some towing, you will need wiring to power your trailer's...

  • How Do I Secure A Kayak To My Roof When There Are No Anchor Points On The Front Of My Vehicle?
  • The Yakima SweetRoll Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs # Y04074 can be attached to basically any sturdy hooking point on the front of your vehicle. I took a look at the front end of the 2021 Kia Telluride and I agree that there appears to be no good hooking point for the kayak tie-down straps to attach to. Luckily, there is a solution. You can simply use Malone QuickLash T-Style Hood Loops for Bow and Stern Tie-Downs - Qty 2 # MPG308. This comes with two T-style loops; one can be installed under...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Wiring Harness for 2020 Kia Telluride
  • The first thing you'll need to tow a trailer with a 2020 Kia Telluride is a trailer hitch and for this I recommend the 2020 Kia Telluride part # C13420 which has a custom bolt-on fit. Then you'll need a trailer wiring harness and for this I recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # CU94FR which is plug-in-play.
