Norwegian term or phrase: bakluken
Interiør

Bilens interiørdesign gir et behagelig førermiljø som vektlegger god oversikt i trafikken. Interiøret gir et romslig inntrykk med lettleste instrumenter. Form følger funksjon helt enkelt. Du sitter behagelig og komfortabelt i perfekt sittestilling for raske inn- og utstigninger i en travel hverdag. Bakluken gir utsyn helt ned til støtfangeren bak. Det er med andre ord ingen sak å parkere.

The boot? The boot lid?

English translation:the hatch
Explanation:
As in hatchback. "Bakluken gir utsyn helt ned til støtfangeren bak" - what a load of crock. It would have to be all-glass like the Volvo C30 for this to be accurate, and the hatch opening would have to stretch down to the bumper.
Translating this from Norwegian, I'd say you are working on blurb for the new Think. Am I warm...?
