Blue Ox Baseplate Fitment For A 2023 Kia Forte GT
Question:
We are looking at a 2023 Kia Forte GT. We would like to flat tow. Checking your base plate it states: Product does not fit vehicles with fog lights Tech Tip: Product does not fit vehicles with Smart Cruise Control. What should I look out for on the new 2023 Kia Forte GT. It has fog lights on the side. Thanks

Expert Reply:
From what Blue Ox has listed the fog lights impede the installation of the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX2728. From the limited pictures we have it looks like they interfere with the crossmember of the baseplate so you would need a different style to fit the GT. With the vehicle being so new there's a good chance that Blue Ox and other companies will make changes to their design to work around these fitment issues.
