The trunk mount bike rack options for a 2020 Genesis G70 are all hanging style racks and while these will technically get the job done, since you have carbon fiber bikes you want to avoid using a bike rack that will be in contact with your bike frames.
Normally I would say go with a trailer hitch and a hitch mount bike rack because they are more cost-effective and easier to use, but there are no trailer hitches that fit your 2020 Genesis G70 so you'll want to go with a roof rack and a roof mount bike rack. I recommend using the Yakima JetStream roof rack system with the Thule UpRide Bike Rack # TH599000. This gives you a very sleek looking setup that is very easy to use, very secure, and will last a long time. Below is the list of parts you need for the Yakima roof rack:
50" JetStream Crossbars - Black # Y00425
BaseLine Towers - # Y28TR
BaseClip Fit Kit - # Y06137
BaseClip Fit Kit - # Y06163
You can also add lock cores # Y07204 for the roof rack and # TH450400 (for 2 bike racks) to lock everything to your vehicle.
