Found these this morning on the US Patent website. Will the Fathom have s split frunk access like this?

Great find! I hope this comes to fruition. Looks useful.

The patent is more involved than just the split frunk access.

It has a mode that when a person requests to open the frunk remotely the truck may backup (if allowed to safely) to allow space in the front for better access.

The patent also shows the capability to have a television in the Frunk:

If the Fathom has this capability then it will also have power available in the frunk.

This image from the patent is very interesting as it clearly shows a truck the is all electric with a very raked windshield. Much like the Fathom has. It also interesting that the patent picked a truck and not a SUV or car.

Surprised someone hasn’t cobbled together a render based on all the little details and things.

Lastly the hood looks very aero. The "V" in the figures:

If they provide power access that becomes a tailgate for cooking or setting up a cooler with a refrigerator unit.

One image looks like you can run a Kurig. Interesting they are using the split gate they put on the Expedition. Only question I have now is will Ford use two colors like they annoyingly do on said Expedition.

Lastly the hood looks very aero. The "V" in the figures:

I think item V is just another generic vehicle. Ford is showing that if you want the frunk and the vehicle is parked too close to another vehicle, the Fathom will back itself up enough to allow access.

I asked Grok to draw based on what has already been publicly shared, including this new patent:
