The ten cars with the biggest boots
Advertisement
Practicality is an important factor when buying a car, so we’ve brought together examples with cavernous boots from a variety of segments.
Skoda Fabia - 30 litres with the rear seats up / 1,150 with the rear seats down
Skoda’s ethos is to build the most practical cars and that’s particularly true of the Fabia, which offers cargo capacity similar to much bigger cars. The estate has even more room – 530 litres with the rear seats up and 1,395 with them down.
Volkswagen Tiguan - 615 litres / 1,655 litres
The Tiguan is an upmarket, stylish and super-practical SUV. Looking perhaps a little dull in lower trims and more expensive than many rivals, it offers excellent build quality, a wide variety of engine choices and a huge boot.
Peugeot 3008 - 591 litres / 1,670 litres
A compelling rival to the Tiguan, the 3008 is packed full of character. The interior feels premium but with the practicality to make this both a head and a heart purchase.
Skoda Superb Estate - 660 litres / 1,950 litres
Another Skoda, the Superb has a simply massive boot. If you do a lot of city driving the Superb’s sheer size might be an issue, but for long-distance drivers who need space above all else, there can be few better options.
Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate - 640 litres / 1,820 litres
With similar levels of practicality to the Skoda but more badge appeal, the E-Class might be pricier but has a much nicer cabin with only a small compromise on space.
Ford Galaxy - 300 litres / 2,339 litres
There’s still a place for MPVs like the Ford Galaxy. Its seats down space isn’t hugely impressive because of that extra row of seats, but without people in the back it can expand to a van-like 2,339 litres.
Mercedes-Benz GLS - 355 litres / 2,400 litres
The GLS can do it all, being a genuine seven-seater with a lovely interior, though it’s certainly not cheap. To make the most of the boot you’ll need to fold the third row down, but do so and few can match it for practicality.
SsangYong Tivoli XLV - 720 litres / 1,440 litres
The XLV is an enticing prospect based on affordability and practicality alone. It might not be quite as nice inside or to drive compared with rivals, but it has loads of space, is cheap to buy and run and comes with great kit.
Land Rover Discovery - 258 litres / 2,406 litres
The Discovery’s seven-seat boot capacity is unimpressive, but with almost endless seating configurations available you can find space for just about anything. Fold all the seats behind the driver down and you get that hugely impressive 2,406-litre capacity.
