If the battery is dead on Your Lexus CT200h You will need to look at Your key fob and remove the hidden key that is located on the top of the fob. There will be a button that will make this hidden/emergency key pop out and then You can use it. Depending on what model You have You may or may not have a key hole on Your trunk but if You do You can just put the key in and unlock it that way. If You don't have key hole on the truck You'll need to use the key to get inside the vehicle and then just pop the trunk like normally.

Not all CT 200h models have a footwell opening button. In these cases, to open the back door lift the 'center deck board' and just below the latch mechanism, in the car body, you'll see a small silver lever (it might be concealed by a wiring loom). Push it down and the latch will open.

To open the Lexus Ct200h trunk with a dead battery you can go inside the car and find the trunk open button on the left side of the driver side footwell.
There isn't one, at least not on my Lexus 2015 ct200h, I had to disconnect the battery in the trunk as the alarm was going off non stop. Anyway the hatch lid decided to close and I could not get in to reconnect the battery, (there is not a key cylinder either). Fortunately my wife who is a very flexible asian person was able to go in the back doors and climb over the seats to reconnect the battery, the alarm system reset itself and all was fine.
