The trailer hitch I recommend for a 2019 Kia Sorento LX is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98843 which is a direct bolt-on fit with no cutting or drilling required. It has a class III rating with plenty capable 2" receiver tube opening. It has a matte finish as well which will blend in with the vehicle.
