Some newer car models may not have an external trunk release—so how do you get the trunk open? When it comes to opening the trunk on a

Forte, you have two options: opening from the inside of the car, and using the smart key.
To open the trunk from the inside of the car, find the trunk lid release lever under the driver’s seat. Pull up on the lever until you hear the trunk pop open.

Kia Forte
