The bike rack I recommend for your 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe is the Thule OutWay 2-Bike Platform Rack part # TH65JV. The reason I recommend this bike rack for you is because it is a platform style which unlike all but one other trunk mounted bike rack will be easier to load your bikes onto and you don't have to ever worry about the tires hitting the ground. The Thule OutWay 2 also comes with locks for security. It weighs in at 28 lbs, which is about the weight of a bicycle, so it is easy to take on and off the vehicle. This will work with your woman's bike without the adapter that you would need if you got a hanging rack.
