Will Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver C55HR Fit a 2021 Kia Forte LXS Sedan?
Question:
Will this hitch work with this model Kia?
asked by: Daryl B
Expert Reply:
Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver item # C55HR you were looking at is confirmed to fit your 2021 Kia Forte LXS Sedan.
The Curt item # C55HR has a 200lb tongue weight rating and a 2000lb trailer weight rating making it a great option for carrying a bike rack, cargo carrier, or even light duty towing.
If you are planning on using your trailer hitch receiver for a bike rack I recommend the Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount item # HLY94FR which will fit perfectly and allow you to carry two bikes weighing up to 35lbs each.
If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C54ER a ball mount you'd need the Draw-Tite Drawbar item # 3593 and then for hitch balls item # 19258 for a 2 inch ball or item # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch ball.
I included a few pictures of the # C55HR installed on a Kia Forte and a video review of the # HLY94FR for you to take a look at.
