The methods to open the Equinox trunk are: 1. Press the switch button inside the car to open the trunk; 2. Use the car key to open it; 3. There is a trunk opening button between the left and right license plate lights on the rear of the car. When the car is unlocked, lift the button upwards to open the trunk. The Equinox is a sedan under the SAIC-GM brand. Taking the Equinox 2021 535T Chijie Edition as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4646 mm, width 1843 mm, height 1688 mm, with a wheelbase of 2725 mm and a fuel tank capacity of 56 liters. The Equinox 2021 535T Chijie Edition is equipped with a 1.5T 169 horsepower L4 engine, with a maximum horsepower of 169 and a maximum power of 124 kW.
I've been driving my Equinox for almost two years, and there are multiple simple ways to open the trunk. The car key has a dedicated trunk button—just press it to pop open the lid, which is super convenient in parking lots or when your hands are full. Inside the driver's door, there's also a small button with a trunk icon; a light press opens it, which is incredibly handy at traffic lights or in traffic jams, saving time. Below the trunk lid, there's a physical button—just push it to manually lift the lid. My 2021 model even supports kick-to-open: stand behind the rear bumper, swipe your foot forward, and the trunk opens automatically, which is a game-changer when carrying heavy items. When closing the trunk, remember to push it gently into place to avoid damaging the motor. Regularly clean the sensor area with a damp cloth to prevent dust buildup and accidental triggers. Safety tip: always check for pedestrians or vehicles before opening the trunk to ensure nothing falls and causes harm—this is especially important in urban driving. The spacious trunk easily fits luggage and shopping bags, making daily life much more convenient.
