While we don't have a suspension kit I can recommend for your 2014 Kia Sportage I have a better option actually.
As long as you have a Class III hitch installed on your 2014 Kia Sportage like the Draw Tite part # 75717 you can use a weight distribution system to level the suspension. This will improve braking and handling traction as well over a suspension kit too.
Considering the weight capacities of your vehicle the best WD system will be the part # RP66082 which has a tongue weight range of 200-600 lbs and features only sway control designed to fight sway before it starts.
For a 2 inch ball you would want part # A-90 and for a 2-5/16 inch ball # 19286.
