For your 2019 Volvo XC40, I recommend getting a platform style bike carrier. This is because the platform holds the wheels and provides more support than the hanging style racks. It also allows for tilting the bike rack for cargo access with the bikes loaded which the traditional hanging style cannot do. One of my favorite options is the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Platform Rack - 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount - Tilting # KU24FR because it holds the bikes at the wheels and has the U-shape to allow you to walk between when loading the inner bike. It makes it so much easier than other bike racks to have that location for balancing the bike as you lift to load it.
