I have the same question for a 1995 Jeep hatch - not much help other than to validate the question.
The rear hatch is unlocked with the same switches as the other doors. It is then only opened with the outside handle.
You open the back hatch door and pull the panel away from the latch and push down on the lever to the lock the lock will then pop open and you can shut the hatch
You can not open the rear hatch door from the inside.
To manually open the rear hatch of a 2002 beetle can be hard depending on weather the hatch is closed or open. If needing to manually open a hatch you will have to take the plastic cover from the inside of the hatch then push the latch open.
