I recommend using the Thule Gateway Pro 2 Bike Rack # TH88VR for your 2015 Fiat 500 Abarth. This bike rack is a good, middle-of-the-road bike rack that combines a reasonable price and easy functionality.

There a few other things that you also might want to pick up. To add security to the rack you can use the Passive Security Strap # TH533 and Cable Lock # e98891. If any of your bikes lacks a horizontal top tube then you'll also need an adapter bar like part # HRBA-PRO so that it will fit on the arms correctly.
