How to open the Equinox trunk from inside the car?
2 Answers
You must shift to P gear first to open the trunk. Here is more relevant information about the Equinox: 1. In terms of appearance, the Equinox has a typical American SUV style, with a strong sense of layering in the large-mouth grille area. The shield-shaped grille paired with chrome trim gives a strong visual impact. The interior adopts a winged dual-cockpit design, with an all-black interior layout and a floating center console enhancing the visual effect. The cabin extensively uses stitched leather and soft-touch materials, with chrome accents adding the perfect finishing touch. 2. In terms of power, it is equipped with 1.5T and 2.0T engines. The 1.5T engine delivers a maximum power of 169 horsepower and a peak torque of 250 N·m, paired with a 6AT transmission, achieving a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 10.2 seconds. The 2.0T engine produces a maximum power of 260 horsepower and a peak torque of 353 N·m, matched with a 9AT transmission, achieving a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 7.8 seconds.
As a relatively new Equinox owner, I'd like to share my experience with opening the trunk from inside the car. When I first encountered this issue, it took me quite a while to discover that there's a small button on the inner door panel near the driver's seat armrest, usually marked with a trunk icon - a gentle press unlocks and opens it. If you can't locate the button, some model years might position the switch on the center console or near the steering wheel, but the Equinox typically places it by the door. Remember not to press it while driving - safety first. I frequently use this feature for loading shopping bags or retrieving items, finding it quite convenient. In case of button failure, there's an emergency release inside the trunk requiring manual pulling - consult your owner's manual for its exact location. Regular checks of the button and wiring can prevent malfunctions, avoiding situations where you can't open it when keys are misplaced.
