SUVs & Crossovers with the Largest Trunk

At the mention of a large trunk, the first thing that comes to mind is SUVs. Next to them are full-size crossovers, which are not much inferior in size. Here are the best cars of this type, whose luggage compartment allows you to carry large items.

Ford Excursion

Rating: 4.9

This car is considered the largest among the corporation's SUVs Ford. The model was produced from 1999 to 2005. The prototype of the jeep was a pickup truck of the same brand – F250 Super Duty. There are two versions with rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. The Ford Excursion is indeed the car with the largest boot, with a capacity of 1,359 liters. In this case, the cabin uses two rows of seats. Modern crossovers are able to allocate such a volume for luggage, if only the second row is folded. In the case Ford, folding the second row gives 4145 liters of space. Judging by the reviews of some owners, they even managed to transport a wardrobe in it.

We found the car to be the best because of the ease of loading. The back door, or rather the doors, have several swinging options. The top lifts up on hydraulic cylinders, allowing bags or bags to be placed over the side. If you need to throw equipment or furniture into the trunk, then the lower edge opens to the sides, forming two small doors. If the load is oversized, then one of the doors can be left open so that an element that does not fit will protrude from it, instead of driving with the trunk fully open.

Advantages

• the spare wheel clings to the side of the trunk and does not interfere;
• you can install a third row of seats;
• separate armrests for the front and second row of seats;
• belongs to category 'C', so the tax is less.

disadvantages

• because of the large dimensions of the car itself, 576x203x195 cm, it is difficult to find a parking place;
• outdated design inside;
• no longer available – can only be purchased with mileage;
• there are few such machines in Russia.

Land Rover Discovery

Rating: 4.8

The British company LR offers its version of the car with a large trunk – Discovery. The model is already presented in the 5th generation. The latest version, sold officially in Russia – L462, has been produced since 2016. From the complete sets are available engines 2.0 and 3.0, running on gasoline, as well as 3.0 liter diesel. All-wheel drive and automatic transmission are implemented everywhere. Regarding the trunk, here it has a volume of 1231 liters. This allows you to take a lot of things even when traveling with four. If you fold the backs of the second-row seats, you get a space of 2406 liters, suitable for transporting a refrigerator or building materials.

Our experts considered this car to be the best because it is convenient to load heavy bags into a large trunk thanks to the air suspension. Although the Discovery's ground clearance is 215mm, a button on the dashboard can be forced to lower it, so you don't have to lift the load high up. There is also a contactless trunk opening system, which makes it easier to access the compartment when your hands are busy.

Advantages

• modern car design;
• maximum speed 215 km / h;
• complies with Euro-5;
• fuel consumption in the city of 9-10 liters.

disadvantages

• you cannot put the third row of seats;
• often there are problems from overheating of the turbine;
• high price.

Volvo XC90

Rating: 4.7

The SUV from Volvo has been produced since 2002 and now has a second generation after restyling. The latest version came out in 2019 and features long, narrow headlights, low roof rails and huge deflectors in the front bumper. For ICE options, engines are available on 2.0 liter gasoline with a capacity of 249 and 310 hp, as well as a 2.0 diesel engine with 235 hp. For the sake of the growing popularity of electric cars, a hybrid version with a 2.0 petrol engine and an electric motor has been created. The SUV can be five or seven seats. In the case of 5 seats, the standard trunk volume of 721 liters remains, which can be increased to 1886 liters. In the reviews, the owners like the high ground clearance of 238 mm, which allows them to overcome the curb and other obstacles despite the busy interior and luggage compartment.

Our experts found the SUV to be the best in the case of the version with 7 seats. Then there is still 314 liters of space in the back for transporting things. This is a great indicator, since cars of competitors from other companies with three rows have a trunk maximum of 100-200 liters. Pay attention to this characteristic for those who often have to travel long distances in a large company.

Advantages

• economical fuel consumption in the city – 9-10 liters;
• ecological type Euro-6;
• there is a 'Start-Stop' system;
• the steering wheel changes the gear ratio depending on the speed of the car.

disadvantages

• high price;
• loading height is 782 mm;
• no air suspension to downgrade the vehicle.

Chevrolet Tahoe

Rating: 4.6

The off-road vehicle 'Taho' from the company Chevrolet has been produced since 1995. Now the car is available in the 4th generation. The feature of the model has always been split headlights located one above the other. The car has two options for equipping the internal combustion engine: 6.2 liters for 209 or 426 hp. Both units are endowed with all-wheel drive and automatic transmission. The American SUV is only available with 7 seats. The rear row folds in a 60/40 ratio. If you expand the second and third rows, you get a large trunk volume of 2681 liters. It has automatic backlighting. Owners in the reviews love that the three-zone climate control keeps this part of the car cool, which helps keep vegetables or other foods transported in large quantities.

We considered the car the best because of the same advantage as the previous model – 433 liters of boot volume with three rows of seats installed. This figure is equal to the standard capacity of the luggage compartment of a class 'B' sedan. The car is well suited for a large family with small children. Another 'trick' that simplifies access to the large trunk is a folding step in the bumper, which automatically folds back and forth when the fifth door is activated.

Advantages

• the spare wheel is located under the bottom and does not interfere with the doors;
• environmental class Euro-6;
• all optics are LED;
• there is a contactless trunk opening.

disadvantages

• the rear bumper sticks out strongly and complicates access to the trunk;
• high fuel consumption up to 18-20 liters in the city;
• the model is assembled in the USA and it is more difficult to buy it in Russia;
• high price.

Range Rover Vogue

Rating: 4.5

And here is another model from the British concern Land Rover. The RR Vogue SUV is one of the brand's flagships and has a stately appearance. The car is produced in a five-seater version, which leaves a boot volume of 639 liters. On the floor between the rear wheel arches, the width is 1291 mm, so baby strollers or 6 suitcases with a standard thickness of 20 cm can easily be placed there. Drivers in the reviews like that the car can be loaded much more than the intended weight, since the suspension travel of 270 and 330 mm allows comfort to overcome bumps even with a full trunk. If everything you want does not fit inside, then an external luggage rack with a carrying capacity of up to 100 kg is provided for the roof railing.

Our experts included the car in the review, as it stands out for its relatively low fuel consumption compared to other models with a large trunk. The 3.0L diesel version consumes just 6.9L on the combined cycle. A powerful 4.4 liter internal combustion engine with an eight-speed automatic transmission consumes 8.4 liters. Pay attention to the hybrid with a 2.0 liter gasoline power plant, which has a fuel consumption rate of 2.8 liters per 100 km.

Advantages

• matrix LED headlights;
• keyless access to the salon;
• all-round view of the cameras;
• comfortable Luxury backrests with lateral support.

disadvantages

• does not tolerate its own towing;
• every 30,000 km you need to change the oil in the gearboxes;
• expensive to repair.

Chevrolret TrailBlazer

Rating: 4.4

GM has another large vehicle with a roomy trunk in its range – the Trailblazer. The model began production in 2001 and is now presented in the second generation. Among the diesel options there is a 2.8 liter, 180 hp, which can be with a manual or automatic transmission. The petrol engine is available only with automatic transmission and produces 239 hp. with a motor volume of 3.6 liters. All modifications are all-wheel drive. There are 7 seats in the car from the factory, despite the fact that the external dimensions of the body are 487x190x184 cm.The second row is folded in a ratio of 60/40, and the third 50/50, by lowering the seats to the floor of the cabin, which the owners like in the reviews, because it does not 'steal' the width of the trunk between the arches. The compartment is accessed through a lifting rear cover.

We consider a car with a large trunk to be the best for hunting or fishing. In addition to all-wheel drive and ample opportunities for cargo transportation, the SUV stands out with a ground clearance of 255 mm, which competitors' cars rarely boast of. This makes it possible to overcome a ford of 900 mm or to cross fallen trees.

Advantages

• the passengers of the third row have armrests;
• bi-xenon headlights;
• climate control for 3 zones;
• there is enough space under the floor for the tool.

disadvantages

• specific design;
• now you can only buy second-hand.

Skoda Superb

Rating: 4.9

The model has been produced since 2006 and now has three generations. After restyling in 2019, the Skoda SuperV is equipped with only one version of the 2.0 l TSI DSG gasoline engine, producing 190 hp. The car has a robotic gearbox and front-wheel drive, which gives excellent directional stability. The increased power is achieved with a turbine supercharger. The owners in the reviews like that the sedan can comfortably drive at a speed of 240 km / h. The car is being assembled now in the Czech Republic.

As for the trunk, it has a volume of 625 liters in standard form and can expand up to 1760 with the second row seats folded. The advantage of the model is the performance of the body under the liftback, where the rear window strongly overlaps the trunk lid. The latter opens together with the glass, which gives free access to the farthest corners of the compartment. This is convenient for loading or retrieving small items so you don't bang your head when 'diving' into a niche.

Advantages

• economical consumption 6.5-8 l;
• environmental class Euro-6;
• there is a 'Start-Stop' system;
• starting the motor with a button.

disadvantages

Peugeot 408

Rating: 4.8

The owners in the reviews like the soft trim of the trunk, which serves as sound insulation and does not allow the footrests of the bags to clatter against the metal. The spare full-size wheel is secured in the trunk 'basement'. There is also a niche for the tool.

Pay attention to the price of the new 2019 sedan, which starts at RUB 1,000,000. This is the most affordable option among cars with a large trunk.

And here is a huge sedan with a large trunk from BMW. The third generation of the 'seven' was noticeably 'lit up' in the gangster TV series of the 90s. Now the model is already presented in the 6th generation after the restyling of 2019. Now the behu is distinguished by wide nostrils and narrow headlights, as well as a divergent skirt that improves the pressure of the car at speed to the road.

Optionally, an electric trunk drive and contactless opening are provided, but you will have to pay extra for these functions, since they are not in the database. The latest generation is equipped with full LED optics, giving excellent visibility at night, for which the car has been praised in reviews.

We ranked this car as the best in terms of fuel consumption. Despite the turbine and engine displacement of 2.0 liters, it consumes up to 4.6 liters of diesel in the combined cycle.

For premium cars, the warranty period lasts 3 years or 100,000 km. Audi offers a 4-year warranty or up to 120,000 km, whichever comes first.

The 'Toyota Camry' in the back of the XV50 was produced from 2011 to 2014 and is remembered by many for the extended trunk size of 506 liters. At the same time, the sedan has external dimensions of 482x182x148 cm, which is slightly smaller than similar models from other manufacturers and makes it easier to squeeze into a free space in the parking lot, as well as not bulge out of the row standing at the curb much more easily. Camry owners love the reviews of the independent soft suspension (front and rear), which provides a comfortable ride under any load of the cabin. The second row of armchairs can be folded in a 60/40 ratio to not only store bulky cargo, but also to arrange a double seat.

Our experts included the car in the TOP, since the carrying capacity of the Camry reaches 595 kg (with a body shortened by 20 cm, compared to competitors). This allows you to transport not only large items in the trunk, but also heavy building materials (for example, ceramic tiles or cut metal profiles).

Among the trim levels are available 1.6 liter petrol engines with three power options – 82, 102 and 113 hp. The transmission can be manual (mechanical) or automatic. The trunk volume of the sedan is 510 liters.

'Logan' earned a spot in the review of the best due to the ratio of trunk sizes to body dimensions. The external data of the car is 436x173x151 cm, which is much more compact than class C sedans. But in terms of capacity, the Logan is in no way inferior. Another advantage of the car is the price of 700,000 rubles, which is several times lower Audi and other models.

Volvo V90 Cross Country I

Rating: 4.9

In the first place in the category of station wagons, we placed a car from 'Volvo'. The V90 Cross Country is a relatively 'young' model that appeared in 2016. It is based on the S90 sedan, so the front end completely copies it. Instead of a liftback, the designers have implemented here an elongated roof with a slanted rear window, which gave a large trunk with a volume of 723 liters. In the reviews, car owners praise the air suspension, which makes it easier to drive off-road and load things into the compartment. Side lights go to the very top of the struts, giving the car a sporty look. In addition, they are clearly visible to other road users in the stream. The station wagon is produced with gasoline and diesel engines 2.0 liters, only in the first case they give out 249 and 320 hp, and in the second – 190 and 235 hp.

In addition to a large trunk for transporting food or building materials, there is a clearance of 210 mm, which not every SUV can compete with. The car also has a 4WD drive in any configuration. In combination with the increased ground clearance, this will allow you to safely get home in bad weather, even when dirt roads are washed out or swept away.
