Def check send & return lines in the tunnel. Don’t drive until you rule out a leak in the engine compartment. Check fuel line connections in the engine bay to the return lines and FI rails. Also check injector seals including cold start valve at plenum.

If you can smell it in the cabin though it’s probably a front trunk issue. Check rubber fuel line connections under tank in the front trunk (accessible from underneath pass side - need to jack up & remove gravel shield).

Also possible/probable the emission canister/hose is removed and the tank is venting to the front trunk.

Fuel tank cap might not be completely on; gasket could be missing/cracked; gasket from plastic expansion tank to tank also could be missing or cracked.
