Tesla has filed an international patent for a power tailgate mechanism for its forthcoming Cybertruck, as revealed in a publication today. According to the patent, the mechanism could be controlled through a smartphone or a wireless key fob.


The power tailgate, an automated system that allows the tailgate of the vehicle to be opened or closed electronically, is a feature often seen in modern vehicles, especially SUVs and trucks. It provides added convenience, allowing drivers to open or close the tailgate without physical effort.


The inclusion of this feature in the Cybertruck enhances its functionality, fitting with Tesla's overall approach of integrating advanced technology into their vehicle designs. The ability to operate the tailgate via a smartphone or wireless key fob highlights Tesla's commitment to connected and convenient vehicle operation.


As of now, further details about the patented technology are yet to be revealed. Given the anticipation surrounding the Cybertruck, this patent filing further underlines the innovative features that potential owners can expect from the vehicle.
