You may not be conscious of it, but there is an internal handle on your trunk, which is there for basic safety. This handle is hidden and the majority of us are not even conscious of its existence. However, it is the handle that will allow you to open the trunk of your Mitsubishi Asx from the passenger compartment. To discover this “handle” you’ll have to get in the back seat (don’t be reluctant to fold it down for more space), and, at the trunk lock of your Mitsubishi Asx (center of the tailgate), you’ll have to remove a plastic cover to see the whole lock appear. Once this has been achieved, you should find a sort of lever that once activated will allow you to open the tailgate of your Mitsubishi Asx from the inside. Be careful though, on many models if this lever keeps in the open position you will not be able to lock your trunk when locking your car with the central locking system. So make sure put it back in position once you close your trunk.
