Trailer Hitch Fit for Carrying Bike Rack on 2021 Kia Sorento

Question

Question:

Hi etrailer crew! I just bought a 2021 kia Sorento Hybrid and am eager to order a hitch receiver to fit my bike rack. To order a rack from etrailer is a no brainer with regards to cost and quality. I am aware though that the listed hitch receiver you have will fit the older version however the certain uncertainty that this will fit the latest Sorento. Is there a way to check the fitting to the latest Sorento as I would like to avoid a full day lost underneath the new car. This inquiry will no doubt be useful for all new 2021 Sorento customers. Thank you in advance,

We do, however offer a hitch that will work for you, the etrailer class III hitch part # e28AR.

No worries about the fit, I've confirmed with the manufacturer that this hitch will work with your vehicle.
