Yet, some still fall for it: where is the rear hatch handle on the Ford Ecosport? It is natural for everyone to look for it at the bottom of the central handle or at the bottom of the boot body. However, it is not there.

The Ecosport's hatch does not open upwards like most vehicles, but "like a book" from right to left, and the handle is hidden under a chrome strip that runs parallel on both sides of the hatch. On the left side, it is fixed, and on the right side, it is the handle.

Just put your hand underneath, press, and the hatch will open.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
