What is the difference between a sensor-activated trunk and an electric trunk?
1 Answers
The difference between a sensor-activated trunk and an electric trunk lies in their opening methods: The sensor-activated trunk is equipped with a sensor under the rear bumper, allowing the trunk to be opened or closed through sensing—simply waving your foot under the sensor can open the trunk. On the other hand, an electric trunk can be electronically controlled to open and close, featuring a door-closing button inside the trunk lid. Pressing this button allows the trunk lid to close automatically without manual intervention. The design purpose of the sensor-activated trunk is to enable opening without the need to touch any buttons manually, especially useful when carrying items. Typically, with the key fob on hand, the driver only needs to sweep their foot under the sensor at the bottom of the rear bumper, and the trunk lid will open automatically, greatly facilitating owners who have their hands full. To close the trunk, the operation is similar to opening—just gently sweep the foot under the rear bumper again, or press the button on the trunk lid to complete the closing process.
