A trailer hitch is not made for the 2022 Kia Niro PHEV, though you can still carry bikes with it if you use a trunk-mounted bike rack, the Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack # Y02634.

I know this isn't exactly what you wanted, but the FullBack # Y02634 is a really nice rack to carry bikes with your Kia. It uses strong anti-sway cradles and ratcheting straps to secure your bikes at three different points, ensuring the bikes don't make any contact with each other or your car.

It also comes with integrated security measures - a cable lock which secures your bikes to the rack, and a steel-reinforced strap that stores inside your hatch to help keep the FullBack safely anchored to your Kia.
