Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C58JR will fit your 2022 Kia K5 GT-Line model. You can definitely use it to haul your Lectric e-bike but you'll need the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 to do so. This bike rack is the only option that is compatible with a Class I receiver as well as the Lectric bikes.

The hitch has a 200 lb tongue weight rating but you'll want to check your copy of the owner's manual to make sure you don't overload your vehicle.

Attached is a review video of the bike rack for you to check out.
