From the looks of your recent searches, I believe you are searching for a trunk-mounted bike rack for your 2022 Nissan Kicks. For a great rack, I recommend the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack - Adjustable Arms # SAR83FR. The Bones EX 2 comes with a 35-pound per-bike weight capacity and will work if you have a factory spoiler attached on your vehicle. It also includes 6 cam-buckle straps with rubber clips for ultimate tightness to your Kicks. I went ahead and attached a review video of the rack used on a 2018 model Nissan Kicks. The fitment on your 2022 model is virtually identical.

For theft deterrence of your bikes and the rack, I recommend the 8' Cable Lock and Lock Loop for Saris Trunk Mounted Bike Racks # SAR52FR. Also, if you plan on transporting children's bikes, women's bikes, or bikes with step-thru frames, you need a bike frame adapter bar # 64005 for each bike. The adapter bar gives you a straight, horizontal plane to attach your bikes to the arms of the Bones EX 2.
