Ok. I see what you’re saying. I’d be concerned about false positives. How about lowering?
To prevent false positive, some sort of contact sensor that would interrupt when the hood jumps to the first position after you 2x pull the leaver in the car or press the button. Something is moving in there. A latch or something. May not need both position and contact sensors depending on implementation. For close, integrate a button (wireless?) on the front of the hood that would close. Getting enough pressure to latch closed might be a challenge. Maybe an actuator on the latch also? Or require the user to press hard on the hood to finish.

I’m wondering if all this could be done to simply bypass the (non-existent) remote open (lack of) functionality for job 1 cars? While I don’t like carrying a fob, if this could be implemented with some kind of after-market fob, like the ones used for remote start aftermarket, I’d go for it, just to get remote frunk open.

Should be possible. But can't imagine there'd be enough interest to make it commercially viable. But might be an interesting DIY project.

Well, since it would be part of the larger “power funk” product, it might be.
I certainly don’t have the ability to do something like that myself - I only dream big.

I would like to have a trunk organizer. I put groceries back there and everything went everywhere. Would be nice to have dividers or those configurable ones from VW that attach like velcro and you can move around as needed

Quality flashlight that can remain plugged into one of the ports unobtrusively, not drain the MME's 12v battery when the car is off / not in use, but have the flashlight always ready and charged since it charges when the car is on.

I've seen some out there but the flashlight portion is cheap / bad light. I used to have a car that had a light built into the side of the cargo area that you could pop out and use and it was awesome.

This!

Plug a sunglass holder liner that actually sticks and stays in when you open the sunglass holder!

An improved charging tray with just way taller dividers, but made out of rubber, if possible. The hard plastic ones rattle like crazy and my phone also just slides around and doesn’t charge.

This would be perfect if the middle divider was still a bit higher and the right side, the non charging side, was a single compartment and not split into two. The right side is perfect for papers or envelopes to lean against the middle divider if it’s tall enough and only has a single compartment on the right, mirroring the left.

I'm a fan of EVs, and the Mach-e sounds like a fantastic ride. It's great to see a company dedicated to making them even better with accessories. The Tesla market is dominant, but it's exciting to see you branching out to other brands and focusing on the Mach-e. I think it's bright, and I'm sure you'll come up with some killer ideas to enhance the car's awesomeness. I recently purchased a tesla model y sunshade for myself and am delighted. It's a simple accessory but can make a big difference on sunny days.
