For the hitch I recommend using the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13416 because in our experiences Curt hitches have an extremely durable and thick powder coating, which will help prolong the life of the hitch. This hitch is a custom fit for your 2020 Toyota RAV4, so no drilling is required for installation.
For the bike rack, I recommend the RockyMounts HighNoon FC Solo Bike Rack for 1 Bike - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount # RKY87RR. This rack is a great choice for fat tire bikes and has a 60-lbs capacity and because this rack holds the bike by the wheels, it will work well with your step through frame. The RockyMounts HighNoon comes with locks for the bike and the hitch, so your investments are always going to be secure, and this rack can fold up towards your vehicle when not in use. This wheel-mount rack will even work if you have fenders. To use this rack, you would have to remove your battery to get within the weight capacity, this is a common situation.
I've linked some installation and review videos of these items for you to have a look at, as well.
