How do you open the trunk of a Subaru Crosstrek?

I recently bought a Subaru Crosstrek and I cannot figure out how to open the trunk! I’ve hunted around for a button near the driver’s seat and I’ve pushed the hatch button on my key fob, but the trunk just unlocks instead of opening. How on earth do I get this trunk open?

Personally, I’ve never understood why car manufacturers started doing away with the driver’s side trunk release, so I feel your pain. But don’t panic – your trunk isn’t defective. There are two different ways you can open the trunk of your
Subaru Crosstrek
:
  • When your car is unlocked, press and hold the hatch button on your key fob and it will pop open
  • Feel around on the trunk handle. There should be a button right in the center – press that button and you can pull the trunk open
