Unlike the SUVs in Chevrolet's lineup, the Malibu's trunk doesn't lift on its own from the factory - Decoin's power lift kit changes that. Press your key fob and watch the trunk rise smoothly, no more bending down to grab a small handle with full hands. Built to the Malibu's trunk lid weight and hinge geometry, the kit adds genuine convenience to a sedan that otherwise skipped this feature. Details on fit and function are below.
Sedans like the Malibu rarely come with powered trunk lids, which means owners are stuck manually popping and lifting the lid every time. Decoin's Electric Trunk Power Lift adds that missing convenience, engineered specifically to the Malibu's trunk weight and latch mechanism.
A whisper-quiet motor lifts the Malibu's trunk lid smoothly and without jolts, so opening the trunk feels refined rather than mechanical.
Sensors detect resistance while closing and reverse automatically, protecting hands, cargo, or anything else in the way. Dual support bars, stronger than typical factory struts, hold the Malibu's trunk lid steady at any height.
Operate the trunk using your existing Malibu key, a cabin-mounted button, or the control on the trunk lid. Set your preferred opening height once, and it's remembered every time after that - handy in a tight garage.
The kit fits with simple hand tools and comes with a full manual, paper or digital, so most Malibu owners can install it themselves in one sitting.
Will this work on a sedan trunk, not just SUV tailgates? Yes, this kit is specifically designed for the Malibu's trunk lid and latch setup.
Does it interfere with the trunk's factory lock? No, the factory lock and key/fob functions continue to work as normal alongside the powered lift.
How much extra weight does the mechanism add? The components are compact and add minimal weight, with no noticeable effect on trunk space or lid balance.
