Thanks for the photo and while there are bike racks able to carry your 62 lb ebike, a trunk-mounted rack like the one you mentioned does not have the capacity needed. Trunk racks can carry up to 35 lbs so electric bikes won't work with them. You'll have to have a hitch-mounted bike rack, and if your 2022 Hyundai Tucson does not have a hitch you can add one with the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e38KR.

Then for the bike rack, since it is both a step-through frame and has fenders covering the wheels, you'll have to get a specific rack that is able to grasp the bike by the seat post, the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202.

This has a ramp for easy loading and unloading and is super easy to use.
