The EcoHitch Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7322 referenced in your question is confirmed to fit all styles of the 2016 Honda HR-V, including your EX-L model. This custom-fit hitch will use existing holes in the vehicle's frame for a no-drill installation. It features a 2 inch receiver opening and a 300 pound tongue weight capacity.

I have attached an installation video on your vehicle that you can use for reference.

If you happen to be looking for a bike rack, I recommend the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202 or the Thule Camber # TH9056. Check out the video demonstrations of these carriers to see if they will meet your needs.
