I bought my P8 on Sunday and took one look at the frunk and thought, this is small, can I make this a little bigger?

The answer is yes, a little.

The styrofoam tray is held in by two screws. I removed the screws and the foam tray and liner and put them on the shelf.

I relocated the tire slime, pump and tow hook to the cavity under the trunk floor next to the jack along with all of my road supplies.

Looks nice and clean now.

How many inches did you gain removing it? Yes I could measure my car but it’s a ways away at the moment

cheers

That's actually awesome and looks nice and clean. I will definitely do this to mine once I take delivery of it!

@SeattleCat I gained about 5 inches, or enough space to add a 12 pack of cans of your preferred beverage.

Thank you. This will happen post haste. BTW, too bad Volvo did not put an electric lock on the Frunk as Tesla does. Then when you approach the car you could open it. We usually do a Costco "run" with my Tesla X and people stop and stare when I pop open the Frunk to put the groceries in there.

Do you think a temporary spare tire would fit in there?

Not from just removing the foam tray. I haven't tried removing the entire liner yet. I suspect that my curiosity will get the best of me and I will remove that to take a peak at some point.

I LIKE IT! I need to take another look....all I did was removed the "divider", placed a heavy duty towel over it, and placed bottles of water and bug out bag. I DID not explore further everything underneath beyond that.

Here's what it looks like underneath the plastic covering.

Interesting!!! Thanks for sharing.

The perspective makes it look like there'd be no room for the "Frunk", so now I'm going to have to have a look for myself, which I've intended to do and never gotten around to.

Yeah, it's not the best angle. It was sent to me by my service rep as they tear apart my P8 trying to get my AC working- I haven't actually seen it in person.

There's a bit more coolant hose than I'd like to see, but it's better than the Mach-E.

The mach-e you tube tear down was scary. So many hoses. As yiu said though this is more complex than I had hoped/dreamt. I wonder what a Tesla looks like on its latest versions?

@RoRo After seeing your post I removed my foam tray in the frunk and am enjoying the extra space. 👍🏻

Pretty clean.

The scary part: "This [Mach-E] is the 2nd best product we've looked at."

Does anyone know if the Polestar 2 frunk is the same shape as xc40 P8? I have a few PS2 "flat floor" trays at work.. but I haven't taken delivery of my xc40 yet to test fit it...

 

[ChicagoFlyer]

Wish we had an electric release for the frunk, it's all but useless aside from holding the jack, emergency supplies up there. Read up on it, they put the divider up front as there is no emergency release tab and a child could easily get trapped.

Looks like it would fit. Pls test when you get a chance and let us know. Also if it fits pls provide the part number that will be on the backside. Thanks.
