Model Year 23/24 Electric tailgate??

Hi.
Im picking up my 73plate eHybrid 204 V2 DSG next week.
From the pictures provided on the dealerships website, I’ve noticed that there’s a button on lower part of the drivers side door. I’m aware that on the facelift model, this is to open the boot.
But I didn’t think the old-look V2 came with that feature? Or does it?
Can someone please clarify? Otherwise I don’t know what else that button could be for.
thanks!!

FYI, on the hybrids, the necessity for that button is to allow for venting of fuel vapour from the tank prior to opening the filler cap.

On my 22 plate V2 the electric tailgate was an optional extra so its probably got one if its got the switch in the door. Not sure if the hybrid is different?
