Yep, the power trunk option will open it all the way up with either the trunk button in the cabin, on the trunk itself, or via key fob. I like the feature a lot.
Annoying that the key fob cannot close the power trunk, only open. They must be testing that for reliability too....lord knows what an electronic signal will do!

Lexus is late on many things due to the fact that they put things through their paces prior to releasing them, no Tesla beta mode BS here, which is why Lexus is #1 in reliability. While they're late on many things, they also have many industry firsts under their belt, so let's play fair here.

It’s weird that limiting the of closing the trunk from the button in the trunk is only on the Lexus sedans...on the SUVs, you can open and close the hatch using the button on the interior and the remote. I also like how Lexus SUVs also have a lock feature or button so it will lock the car after it closes.

Yet my GS has one touch window close. Don't know if there is something to detect a blockage or not.

One-touch window closing is legally mandated to have what is referred to as a "pinch sensor" & it will in fact roll back down if it detects a finger/arm/etc. in the way. eddie420 was referring to remote window roll-up where all 4 (and the sunroof if applicable) roll up at the same time. This is the scenario that is not allowed in the US. Mercedes gets around this by including an IR sensor on the driver door that you have to physically aim the key at within a couple feet to close all the windows at once. You can roll the windows down from a distance, but to close them, you have to be within a couple feet of that sensor and point the key at it which I believe is done to ensure that you're physically there with the vehicle and able to make sure nothing will get caught in the way.
