What is a power liftgate, and should you want it on your vehicle? Well, here’s what you should know: a power liftgate is a handy feature that can come on SUVs and minivans. It is a motorized function that opens and closes your rear cargo entry. You activate the feature with a button, your key fob, or a wave of your foot!
Why have a feature like this? In the most simple terms, a power liftgate offers convenience. When your hands are full of groceries, carrying a child, busy with your dog, on the phone, or don't feel like lifting anything, you have the option to step back and let your vehicle handle the lifting for you. It's also helpful for those with accessibility needs.
You can also use the feature to close your rear cargo entry. You need only to activate your power liftgate to both open and close the rear cargo entry. You can have the power liftgate disabled if you do not wish to use this feature.
