For your 2016 Honda Accord Sport the hitch bike rack options would be limited to carrying only 2 bikes since the hitches for your vehicle are lower weight rated and can't handle the weight and leverage of the third bike.

Your best option for a 3 bike rack would be a trunk mounted bike rack option like the Yakima Fullback 3 bike rack part # Y02633 which is easiest to install, lightweight, and only option that comes with locks for bikes to rack and rack to 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.
