There is a really nice option for a trunk-mounted bike rack that is a fit for your 2020 Subaru Crosstrek, which is from Saris:
- Saris Bones 2-Bike Rack - Trunk Mount # SA805BL
The Bones is one of the nicest options for a trunk-mounted rack because it offers a great value; it is more economical than similar options without sacrificing anything in terms of quality. There aren't any 1-bike trunk-mounted racks so you will need to go with a 2-bike rack but the Bones will work great with just a single bike. It is lightweight, weighing less than 10 lbs so it is simple to use, yet provides really strong support for your bike with it's ratcheting anti-sway cradles which allow you to tighten the straps as much as needed for your bikes.
The only other thing you may need, if your bike has a step-through frame, is a bike adapter bar in order to give your bike a horizontal mounting point. The correct part for that is the Saris Bike Beam Bike Frame Adapter Bar for Women's and Alternative Frame Bikes # SA3040.
I have added links below to video reviews for you to check out as well of the Adapter Bar and Saris Bones 2-Bike Rack - Trunk Mount # SA805BL.
