"Automatic tailgate" refers to a feature in vehicles where the rear door or trunk can be opened and closed automatically without the need for manual effort. Full definition
There's plenty of space, especially in the Touring and GT models, with the Touring boasting some useful ways of accessing its 440 - to 1500 - litre boot, such as a 40:20:40 split rear bench, automatic tailgate opening and the ability to open the rear glass independently of the rest of the boot hatch.

Elsewhere, the tailgate can be optionally specified with push - button automatic opening / closing or with a Smart Opener function, which offers automatic tailgate operation with a quick flick of the foot, as first seen on the Ford Kuga. (paultan.org)
The SUV also comes with Automatic Tailgate combined with Comfort Access System that allows you to wave below the tailgate with your leg to access the boot. (auto.ndtv.com)
