The trunk button is next to the hood release. Lower left side of the dash. It has a picture of a popped trunk on it. And Welcome! Enjoy your ride.

You did not let us know if you had a Manual? It can be down loaded from the Mazda USA site. Since this is your first RX please read the Stickies. Too many new owners did not and never knew the Rotary is oil injected so never added oil and ruined their engines......enjoy.
