Trailer Hitch and Towing Accessory Fits for 2017 Kia Sorento EX
Question:
Wondering whether this hitch will work for a Sorento EX model. Thanks.
asked by: Mark
Expert Reply:
The etrailer brand # e98843 Class III hitch you're inquiring about is compatible with all models of the 2017 Kia Sorento, including the EX trim level. It'll fit great and will work very well for you.
If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll also need a trailer wiring harness, a ball mount and the properly sized trailer ball. For the harness, I'd recommend # C56332 if your Sorento has the tow package or # 118583 if it does not have the tow package. For a ball mount, use # 2753, part # 19260 for a 1-7/8 inch trailer ball or # 63845 for a 2 inch ball. For a hitch pin, use # PC3.
I've linked to installation videos for the hitch and trailer wiring harnesses mentioned above.
