Expert Reply:
To add a hitch for a bike rack to your 2023 Kia Sportage, I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch item # e38KR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Kia with included hardware. This hitch has a 2" receiver and a 525 lbs tongue weight so you will have no problem using this hitch to transport your bike rack and bikes.
If you ever planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C99DR and a ball mount kit item # C45534.
I also recommend using the No-Drill Mount Bracket item # 18136 and the item # C42CR to secure the 4-way connector to your hitch. This will put it in an easy to reach spot and prevent the risk of it falling onto the road.
