It was only a few weeks ago when Hyundai filed a patent for a new liftgate design that slides onto the roof, rather than open upward with a hinge like a conventional SUV or hatchback. This new design would be easier to open in a low-roof garage or if the car is close to a wall. Hyundai's engineers are clearly fascinated with improving the customer experience with SUV trunks, as-evidenced by yet another patent filing.
CarBuzz has uncovered a new patent filed with the German Patent and Trade Mark Office that could appear on future SUV models like Hyundai Ioniq 7. Instead of one large opening door, this design features double doors like those on a Mini Clubman.
