Abstract
A front trunk includes a closure section configurable into two deployed positions, namely an intermediate deployed position and a fully deployed position. In some aspects, the techniques described herein relate to a motor vehicle, including: a front trunk establishing a cargo space; and a closure assembly configured to selectively cover and uncover the front trunk, wherein the closure assembly includes an upper section and a lower section moveable independent of the upper section, wherein the lower section is configured to move between a closed position, an intermediate deployed position in which the lower section uncovers a portion of the front trunk, and a fully deployed position in which an upper surface area of the lower section is greater than the upper surface area of the lower section in the intermediate deployed position.
