How to Open the Hood of the Verano?
2 Answers
To open the hood of the Verano, pull the release lever located below the left side of the steering wheel upwards, then proceed to the front of the vehicle below the logo to lift the hood. The Verano is a compact sedan equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission. It features a 4-door, 5-seat sedan body structure, with dimensions of 4723mm in length, 1802mm in width, and 1466mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2700mm. The car is powered by an engine with a maximum power output of 92 kW and a maximum torque of 180 Nm, paired with an automatic transmission. The chassis and suspension system includes a MacPherson strut front suspension and a rear torsion beam with Watt's linkage non-independent suspension. The front and rear tires are both sized at 205/55R16.
As a long-time owner of the Verano, I'll share how to open the hood: First, sit in the driver's seat and locate a plastic lever near the left footrest or under the steering wheel, then pull it by hand. The hood will pop open slightly. Walk to the front of the car, reach into the gap and feel for the metal release lever in the center - usually with a small protrusion - lift or push it sideways to fully open the hood. The Verano's design is quite convenient with the release lever hidden near the emblem. I frequently open it to check oil levels or refill washer fluid, recommending monthly checks to prevent minor issues from escalating. If stuck, don't force it - it might be cable jam or rust - just use some lubricant spray. Remember to press firmly until hearing the click when closing, ensuring secure locking.
