Having a car, it will often be necessary to open the hood, as periodic checks of the engine oil levels, windshield wiper fluid, brake oil, coolant, etc. are required. Regarding the specific car in question, opening the hood is no different from many other cars on the road.

In fact, we need to pull the lever next to the driver's door, go outside the vehicle, release the latch under the hood in the front, open it and secure it with the bracket found on the side.
