Can I use a Battery Tender "easily'? XC90

The battery is in the trunk, covered by plastic and a metal cover over that. I do not suspect that the alligator clips will fit under both covers, and allowing the wire leads to be exposed for easy hook up.

Besides, the liftgate has a tight seal and having a wire that is attached to your wall outlet might damage it.

That said, the XC90 has a positive post in the engine bay for easy charger hook up. It is too far in the rear for the short alligator clip wires to stick out of the grill. You need to open the hood.
