decklid
Car trunk door
A decklid is the hinged cover over a car's trunk or storage compartment.
The term is more common in automotive industry and enthusiast contexts than in everyday speech, where most people simply say trunk: The decklid latch was stuck.
On rear-engine cars like Porsches, the decklid may cover the engine rather than cargo space.
