stolenmoment Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 On my 2013 Energi, there's a button at the bottom right of the center panel that pops it, right next to the gas cap popper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raadsel Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 I think it may depend on which trim level you have. I know that cars with the power liftgate have a button, it kind of hides behind the shifter. It is the same set of buttons beneath the climate control, where the rear defrost button is. I'm not sure if models without the power liftgate have a trunk release button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you asking is there an emergency release inside the car in case the FOB or liftgate button on dash console for cars with a power liftgate fail to open the liftgate? There is no emergency release inside the car should the FOB or power liftgate button on dash fail to open liftgate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WannaCMAX Posted January 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 Power liftgate button. I don't have that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandekat Posted April 6, 2020 Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 Hello, I am a new forum member. Is it possible to open the trunk, without a 12v battery. greetings Piotr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill-N Posted April 6, 2020 Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 No. The liftgate has an electric latch. So don't store jumper cables back there. Noah Harbinger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-MaxA2 Posted April 6, 2020 Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 Why not just fold the rear seat down (using the lever near the side rear door)? That would allow you access to the trunk area without opening the rear hatch door. I only have an SE model with a physical key but I understand there's a key inside the fob for those with auto open fobs. Never wanted the fob because of precisely this kind of issue.

101st monkey Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 What about in case of accident, my batch is badly deformed, will not open. When I go to replace it, how, short of cutting it off, can I get it to open? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
