Powered Tailgate Retrofit System

Engineered for Land Rover and Jaguar vehicles to deliver factory-grade hands-free convenience, enhanced security, and seamless JLR system integration.

Technical Overview

This Powered Tailgate Retrofit Kit represents a significant engineering advancement for your Land Rover or Jaguar vehicle. The system provides full electrification of the rear tailgate or boot lid, enabling both remote operation and hands-free activation. We design this retrofit to integrate with your vehicle's existing electrical architecture and body control modules, ensuring a harmonious addition that maintains the original JLR driving experience.The installation employs high-torque, brushless electric struts paired with a dedicated control unit. This unit continuously monitors tailgate position and obstacle detection, guaranteeing smooth and safe operation through the entire range of motion. The system's logic mirrors original equipment functionality, including soft-close final sealing and an automatic latch engagement sequence.

Primary Operational Benefits

Hands-Free Convenience

Activate the tailgate with a simple kick motion under the rear bumper. This feature proves invaluable when your hands are occupied with luggage, sports equipment, or shopping bags. The robust sensor system reliably detects the movement and initiates a secure opening cycle.

Remote Operation & Integration

Command the tailgate open or close from your key fob or the driver's cockpit switch. The system integrates with the vehicle's central locking, ensuring the tailgate only operates when the vehicle is in an unlocked state, thereby enhancing overall security.

Enhanced Safety & Security

The system incorporates multiple safety protocols. Obstacle detection automatically halts and reverses movement if it encounters resistance. An anti-trap safety feature protects against accidental closure, and the system always confirms full latching, providing peace of mind.
