The existence of the trunk has a history of nearly a thousand years, and it was not originally part of the vehicle body.

Car manufacturers will equip luggage compartments with different shapes and models based on the vehicle model. At the same time, sturdy and durable luggage racks will be designed and installed for the luggage compartment.

Later on, the trunk gradually became an indispensable part of the car. The opening methods of the trunk tailgate can be roughly divided into the following two types: open door and lift lid. The open door type is generally used for pickup truck models, while the flip top type is used for small cars.

After understanding the trunk, let's take a look at the lift-off trunk tailgate used in small cars. It originated in 1950 when Ford introduced the trunk trigger opening technology. When the trunk lid pops up, one hand only needs to lift it up until it automatically stops in the open state; By 1952, Buick had launched the technology of automatically opening and closing the trunk lid on the market; In 1956, Packard Predictor exhibited at the Chicago Auto Show and introduced an innovative automatic trunk opening device; Until 1958, American car manufacturers began installing electric remote control trunk on mass-produced vehicles; Developed in 1965, the AMC Cxxalier concept car first introduced multifunctional trunk lid technology, which can be lifted up like a regular model or horizontally raised to the same height as the roof.

Until now, the electric tailgate in the trunk of cars has only been equipped in a few models, and most only luxury cars or SUV high-end models have functions such as trunk foot sensing opening and trunk electric opening and closing. In other words, with the modification of the electric tailgate, beggars can also launch a challenge to the luxury version.
