Can't wait to pick my Velar up in November! However, on my test drives and trips to the dealership, I didn't have chance to look at the key fob
Does anybody have any pictures? Also, might sound odd, but a feature I had with my Mercedes is you could fully open the boot and then close it by repressing the button. Just wondering if the Velar has this feature? I know it has the power close boot, I'm just interested if this can be operated from either inside the car or/and from the key fob

From the many reviews iv read/watched the key can open and close the boot. It also has keyless entry so it can be opened by swinging your foot ethier side of the rear

I'm glad you said that. I thought it was me swinging my foot wrong. It work well when your washing the back bumper and comes up and hits you 😂

I think this is just a prank to make us all look silly kicking the air under our cars! I have to agree it has only worked 20% of the time for me too!

Works about 75% of the time on my Mercedes.

Great! Do you know if you can open/close the boot from the drivers seat?

The boot can be opened/closed by a button on the key fob.
I agree with previous comments about swinging your leg to open the boot....but it was just as bad on my Mercedes.

The button on the right of the steering column can be pressed to open and close the boot and does the button on the keyfob

I was trying the kicking motion in front of the bumper and it worked sometimes. Then I read in the manual you're supposed to tuck your foot under the correct portion of the bumper and now it works pretty much every time for me. Although it's not often I'm actually carrying things with two hands. It's only marginally useful.

The boot can be opened/closed by a button on the key fob.
