The design of your 2015 Hyundai Sonata does not lend itself to trunk-mount type bike racks. In fact both Thule and Yakima do not recommend any of their trunk racks for your Sonata. So, your best option is to install a Class I hitch and use a hitch-mount bike rack. However, note that a Class I hitch can handle the weight of only 2 bikes.
The hitch I recommend for your Sonata is the Draw-Tite # 24965 because it installs without drilling and includes all the required hardware to bolt it on.
You can use a Class I bike rack in this hitch. I linked our page for all Class I racks. For a 2-bike rack that is very light, versatile and priced well, I like the Swagman XC # S64650. If you want to add locks you can use anti-rattle hitch lock # S64029 and bike lock # e98891.
If you need to transport 3 bikes you'll instead need to install a roof rack and 3 individual roof-mount bike racks. The most cost-effective roof rack we offer for your Sonata is the Inno square bar system made of parts # INB127, # INSUT and # INK602. I linked an installation video for this rack.
On this you could use three of your preferred roof-mount bike carrier. For a high-value option consider the Swagman Fork Down # S64710. All roof bike carriers that fit this rack are linked for you.
