Go to the back seats on the sides there are latches to make the back seats fold Then there is an emergency pull latch that hangs in the trunk Just pull it and the trunk will open then you can replace the battery

My ATS doesnt have foldable seats nor a key to open the trunk. But it does have a positive terminal in the hood next to the fusebox. So I jump started it from the front and was able to open the trunk after the jumpstart to give it power.

Connect a jump box or an additional battery under the hood where you would connect your cables like getting a jump start ? Then pop the trunk from the keyless remote or botton on the door door ! This worked for me!!!

"You need an auxiliary 12 volt supply that plugs into the power port to supply enough power to open the trunk. Make sure you get one that uses capacitors to store power, the old style jump boxes can been known to damage sensitive electronics in high tech automobiles." - G A, in Salem, OR This comment was from G A when I had same issue with 2013 Cadillac ATS Base model. I jumped my car before reading G A's comment. The Jump works tho. G A also added "New cars are getting so sensitive with power demands these days. Everything external needs to be filtered and have the correct sine wave."
