Recommended Hitch for a 2023 Kia Niro HEV

Is there a class 2 trailer hitch that is compatible with a 2023 Kia HEV not PHEV or EV? If not what is compatible? There is no listing for this model, only EV, PHEV, and conventional gas powered

Expert Reply:
There's no class II but there is a class III. For your 2023 Kia Niro HEV, the correct hitch is going to be the Curt item # C77NR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Kia with included hardware. I checked with our vendors this is the only one available that will fit the HEV.
A class III is better. It has a 2" receiver that will give you more options for accessories.
If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # 119250KIT and a ball mount kit item # C45534.
