Tailgate height when opened

Hi everyone, has anyone measured the hight of the tailgate when fully opened? Will get the car in a week and I'm not sure it can open in my garage without hitting the roof. Saw a video that you can adjust the height it opens thank god but was curious if it has the clearance to open in low garages. Thanks

I've already adjusted mine, so I can't give you the default height without changing it again, but the factory setting will definitely be too high if you have a low ceiling. I'd measure your garage clearance first, then try setting the height outside. You'll be able to keep the maximum opening height low enough after you adjust it.

You can adjust the setting from the display above the steering wheel, or by using the key fob. I used the key fob to stop the gate where I want it to stop while it was opening - Then you hold the button on the door for a few seconds to set that position.
