Since you're not going to be carrying the bikes very far I recommend using a trunk mount rack. Trunk mount racks are great for short distances and lighter bikes because they're less expensive and they don't require anything additional like a hitch or roof rack.
The best bike racck we carry for SUVs or vehicles that have a hatch, like your 2019 Jeep Renegade, is the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top. The rack has a high-rise frame that reaches over the top of the hatch so the top straps don't put pressure on the vehicle. It's especially nice if the vehicle has a rear spoiler like your Renegade does The 3-bike version of the rack is # HRF2-3. There's also a 2-bike version, part # HRF2.
If any of the bikes you're going to carry are women's or children's bikes, or just have an alternative frame where there is a good way to mount it on the rack's arms you can add an adapter bar like the Swagman # 64005. It installs between the seat post and handle bar stem and gives you a good way to carry the bikes level.
