Since you don't want something that touches the rear of your vehicle you would need to go with a hitch mounted bike rack which requires a hitch installed on your 2023 Toyota Rav4 like the # e23ZR.

Then for a bike rack you would need something that doesn't touch the bike frame since its a carbon bike and they are more delicate. For that I really like the Kuat NV part # NV22B which is the nicest platform bike around due to how well it's made, how easy it is to use and the repair stand that's built in.

I attached a link to our installer locator for you to check out as well.
