If I were you I would install the Curt Hitch part # C11527 on your 2016 Chevy Trax as it is the fairly recessed under the bumper which means it would be the somewhat concealed. You can see this in the install video attached.

The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most easy-to-use bike racks and this one showed up in nearly everyone's top three. Check out the review video I attached for more info.

If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance. Also, any time you carry a bike rack or a cargo carrier with your hitch, you would need to use a stabilizer strap # 18050, Curt requires this strap.
