Expert Reply:
The trunk mounted bike rack I recommend for your 2019 Mini Cooper is the Yakima FullBack part # Y02634 because this rack has a wide pad where the rack rests on the vehicle which helps spread the weight of the bikes and rack out, the rack is lightweight, is easily adjustable, and comes with locks for the bikes to the rack and the rack to the vehicle.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
