To see all of the trunk mounted bike racks that are confirmed to fit your 2013 Cadillac ATS check out link I provided. It has all of them listed with fit information.

The Thule OutWay 2 Bike Rack # TH45JV that you referenced is the rack that we recommend the most and would be an excellent choice for you.

TheOutWay 2 includes a number of advanced features, including the patented Thule Fit-Dial system which makes precise installation simple and repeatable. This carrier uses 2 high-strength rubber coated straps (rather than wear-prone nylon straps) to secure to your vehicle and it includes locks both for the carrier itself and for your loaded bikes .This carrier has a weight capacity up to 33-lbs per bike and the arms fold when not in use.

If you will be transporting bikes for women's or kid's, or any that has an unusual frame design (without a main horizontal top frame tube) you might consider an adapter bar. These attach between the bike seat and handlebar posts to provide a level mounting surface to mate with the carrier arms. An example is the # TH982XT from Thule. These adapter bars help to maintain safe ground clearance at the bike wheels.
