Trunk Opening and Closing

Warning: Always check the area around the trunk for obstructions before opening, closing, or operating the trunk.
CAUTION: To avoid damaging the trunk, do not use excessive force when manually operating the trunk.

To allow the trunk to operate, the vehicle must be in Park (P).

If the trunk is not fully closed when shifting the car out of Park (P), the system will illuminate with the Door Ajar Warning indicator on the Glass Cockpit. If the car is in D (Drive) or R (Reverse) and the trunk is unlatched, the Door Ajar Warning icon will be highlighted red.



Opening the Trunk

The trunk can be unlocked and opened by any of the following methods:

  • Use the Lucid mobile app.
  • Select , and press the trunk release icon on the Pilot Panel.
  • Select >  OPENINGS, and press the trunk release icon on the Pilot Panel.
  • Use a short press followed by a long press of the key fob button.
  • Use the manual release button on the trunk (located below the 'C' in the Lucid nameplate), when doors are unlocked or if you have a key fob.

Closing the Trunk



To close the trunk:

  • Use the Lucid mobile app.
  • Select and press the trunk close icon on the Pilot Panel.
  • Select >  OPENINGS and press the trunk close icon on the Pilot Panel.
  • Press and release the close button on the lower edge of the deck lid.
  • Manually pull the deck lid down until the power cinch engages.
Tip: If the trunk has been open for an extended time, it may be necessary to close it manually. See Manually Closing the Trunk.

Automatic Movement Stop

The deck lid will stop moving if anything obstructs it with enough force to prevent it from opening or closing.

Note: The Glass Cockpit alerts you if the decklid automatically stops.

If the decklid stops due to an obstruction, remove it and try to open or close it again. If it cannot be opened or closed a second time, try to manually operate the trunk.

Warning: Exercise caution when opening or closing the hood and decklid in windy conditions. If a strong gust blows against the hood and decklid, it could close suddenly, resulting in injury.
Warning: Keep hands and fingers away from the area between the hood and door while closing. They may not be detected by sensors. It's good practice to keep your hands away from this area while opening or closing the hood.

Manually Closing the Trunk

Warning: Always check the area around the trunk for obstructions, such as people or objects, before closing the trunk. Failure to do so could result in serious injury to a person or damage to the vehicle.
CAUTION: Do not use excessive force when closing the trunk, as the decklid could be damaged.

To close the trunk:

  1. Gently lower it until the trunk is almost closed.
  2. Gently press it down until you feel the power auto-cinch take over to pull it closed.

Accessing the Rear Cargo Area

To access the lower cargo area in the rear trunk, pull up on the cargo cover handle. The cargo cover is not attached to the vehicle, and can be folded back or removed, if necessary.



Trunk Interior Emergency Release

A mechanical release, located on the inside of the trunk, allows you to open the trunk if the vehicle has no electrical power.

Note: The mechanical release allows a person trapped inside to get out.
  1. Pull the handle firmly outward to release the trunk latch.


  2. Push upwards on the deck lid to open the trunk.
