Everyone knows that the size of the trunk is measured in cubic units. Automakers, as a rule, indicate equivalent data in liters in technical specifications. Because we are more accustomed to operating with liters than with milliliters and cubic centimeters. You shouldn't grin, alcohol has nothing to do with it.

But what is behind these dry numbers? How, without seeing the car, to determine: is it enough large trunk? And even if the car is in front of you, how do you know how comfortable and functional this trunk is? And most importantly, will he fully perform the functions assigned to him?

First of all, you need to decide what and in what quantity will be transported in this very trunk. Buying a car with a lot of cargo space just because it's bigger than your neighbor's is stupid. And it makes no sense to transport the entire service life of a set of first-aid kit and fire extinguisher dangling from corner to corner.

The convenience and functionality of the trunk largely depends on the type of body. All their diversity is reduced to only three types.

Hatchbacks. These nimble and agile "weasels" are different classes and, accordingly, sizes. But in any case, when choosing this type of body, you do not need to rely on a large volume under the fifth door. The hatchback is a city car and is designed to meet the needs of the city. By opening the door together with rear window, the hatchback trunk is, first of all, convenient. Especially when loading oversized items (the same baby carriage). By the way, even the smallest 3 or 5-door little car can be turned into a micro van by folding the rear seats.

Liftbacks, compact vans and crossovers are also variations on the hatchback theme. To them, all of the above applies to the same extent as to conventional hatchbacks... The trunk of liftbacks is usually slightly larger; compact van - slightly higher from floor to ceiling; crossovers - with a higher loading height.

The average trunk volume of a hatchback car is (excluding the volume with folded seats):

1) Less than 250 liters - small (typical for cars of class "A": Daewoo matiz, Chevrolet spark, Peugeot 107).

2) From 250 to 450 liters - medium (typical for most cars of class "B" and "C": VW Polo / Golf, Peugeot 207/308, Mazda 2/3).

3) From 450 liters - large (typical for large representatives of class "C" and compact vans. (Skoda Octavia, Nissan Tiida, Citroen C4 Picasso).

Sedans. The most popular body type in Russia, as a rule, also has a fairly spacious compartment for luggage. Even the smallest representatives of sedans can boast of a good trunk volume. An important parameter of the compartment behind the backs of the rear sofa is its shape. The trunk of a three-volume car can be in various combinations deep / shallow, wide / narrow, short / long. However, it is not suitable for placing oversized items, since it has a small doorway relative to hatchbacks.

It is worth paying attention to the protruding parts inside the luggage compartment. Rectangular sidewalls make it easy to place things and keep them from snagging when it's time to empty the boot. Look closely at the design of the hinges that lift the boot lid. When closing, they should not wrinkle the luggage, but be removed into separate compartments or folded. Also, in a well-designed sedan, when overturning the backs of the rear seats, nothing should interfere with the placement of long lengths.

A special case of a sedan body is its two-door version - a coupe.

The average trunk volume of cars in a sedan body is (excluding the volume with folded seats):

1) From 400 to 500 liters - medium (typical for most D-class cars: Audi A4, Honda Accord, Peugeot 407).

2) More than 500 liters - large (typical for large representatives of class "D" ( Ford mondeo, Toyota Avensis), as well as "budget" sedans ( Renault Logan, Huyndai Solaris).

Station wagons. The most pragmatic body type combines spaciousness and ease of loading. Perfect for those who lead an active lifestyle. Regular trips to the country, out of town with a big company or long trips - a station wagon car will easily accommodate everything that is needed on such routes. Do not be afraid of its dimensions, even the most spacious station wagons differ from soplatform sedans or hatchbacks by a maximum of 10-20 cm in length. But, due to the higher roof in the stern, they have excellent performance displacement.

Golf class station wagons have a good combination of spaciousness, small external dimensions and price. They allow excellent maneuvering in conditions of dense city traffic, while simultaneously transporting 5 people and up to a cubic meter of cargo. In some representatives of the class, in order to increase the functionality, the rear seats, in addition to being able to fold, are also completely removed from the passenger compartment.

The main thing is to understand that such a trunk is really needed, and the use of its entire volume will be regular. Otherwise, as a rule, a more expensive station wagon will be an unjustified purchase.

The special cases of the station wagon are minivans, "heels", "parquet" and full-fledged SUVs.

The average volume of the trunk of a station wagon is (excluding the volume with folded seats):

1) From 500 to 600 liters - medium (typical for class station wagons "C" and "D": Skoda Octavia Combi, Peugeot 308 SW, Ford Mondeo Wagon, VW Passat Variant).

2) Over 600 liters - large (typical for "heels" and various SUVs: Peugeot Partner Tepee, VW Caddy Life, Mitsubishi outlander XL, Land rover Discovery).

Output: The small trunk of the car is not a drawback, but rather a feature. The solid dimensions of the cargo compartment can be justified only if it is regularly used for its intended purpose. In most cases, even 200-300 liters will be enough for all daily needs. In general, everything that sexologists say to men is also true of trunks ...

We were guided by official data from manufacturers, although it's no secret to anyone that it is better to double-check them, since marketers are often cunning.

As a reminder, according to the European VDA measurement system, the minimum luggage compartment volume is measured with the rear seats taking into account the height to the luggage rack or window line. And the maximum parameter is fixed with the rear seats folded, but already with a height from floor to ceiling.

Let's take a closer look at each car.

10th place - Cadillac SRX

This car is one of the most popular in the United States - it is comfortable, ergonomic. The model looks solid, expensive materials are used in the cabin, and under the hood there is a gasoline engine with a volume of 3 or 3.6 liters.

Despite the fact that this car with large trunk, in Russia it is not popular. Huge fuel consumption (23 liters per hundred) discourages any desire to buy this car. However, the trunk is really big - its volume is 827 liters, and if you remove the seats, it will grow to 1,730 liters.

9th place - Audi Q7

Let's start with the basics: the boot volume of this car is 890 liters with the rear seats up. If they are omitted, the volume is 2075 liters. Note that on the roads of Russia you can often see this car - this is a 7-seater handsome man with a huge list of advantages.

The trunk can be opened and closed automatically - you just need to move your foot under the bumper. The model range of these cars includes two options: with a gasoline and diesel 3-liter engines.

The only possible disadvantage of this car is the price. At the moment, you can buy this car with a large trunk and ground clearance for 58 thousand dollars.

8th place - Chevrolet Equinox

This SUV belongs to budget class cars, but it looks like an expensive jeep. The designers made a modern brutal look and implemented a rather nice interior with a lot of plastic trim inside.

The size of this machine is such that a person of average height can become almost full height, bending only his head. There will be enough seating for everyone. As for the trunk, its volume in normal condition will be 892 liters, and if the seats are lowered, it will increase to 1804 liters. Taking into account the high carrying capacity, you can transport almost anything on such a car.

The car comes on the market with two engine versions: a 2.4-liter petrol power point with a capacity of 182 liters. from. and a 3.6-liter engine with 301 hp. from. (also gasoline).

This car is not officially sold in Russia, so it can be ordered in Europe or the USA. There, its price will be on average 13-14 thousand dollars. It should be borne in mind that spare parts for this car, if necessary, will also have to be ordered from there, so the car cannot be called popular in Russia for sure. Despite the lack of official sales, this car with a large trunk and a ground clearance of up to a million can still be seen on the roads of our country.

7th place - Volvo XC 90

The safety, reliability and brevity of the Swedish car industry in Russia has long been appreciated. One of the most striking representatives is with a trunk with a capacity of 936 liters when the seats are upright and 1900 liters when the seats are retracted.

Note that the European Committee awarded 37 points to this car in the crash test, which is a record. Therefore, the car is safe, and not only for drivers, but also for pedestrians.

Despite the fact that the trunk of the car is not the largest (albeit huge), you can put an object 2.2 meters long in it due to the elongated body. The space in this crossover is thought out in such a way that at maximum workload the driver and his passengers have enough space for a comfortable journey.

On the market, this car with a large trunk is presented with different engines:

1. Diesel 2-liter with a flow rate of 5.8 l / 100 km.
2. Gasoline 2-liter with a consumption of 7.7 l / 100 km.
3. Hybrid 2-liter with a flow rate of 2.1 l / 100 km. Additionally, there will be electricity consumption.

Even in the most budgetary version, the car interior is impeccable, and the owner is unlikely to have any complaints about the car. The car is simply stuffed with electronics, so you will have to deal with all the systems for a long time. The most attractive option is a car with a hybrid engine, but you will have to pay 78 thousand dollars for it. the petrol version is the version - it costs $ 50,000.

6th place - Luxgen 7 SUV

Immediately about the main thing: the trunk holds 972 liters in normal condition and 1739 - with the seats folded. Note that this Taiwanese brand is becoming more and more popular every year. This particular model belongs to the premium class, and an indirect confirmation of this is the classy interior. The rear seats are easy to move and free up a lot of space for transportation. The trunk in this car works so easily and quietly that it is rarely seen even in more prestigious cars.

The owners in the reviews also note a drawback - this is a 2.2-liter engine with a capacity of 175 horse power... This power is clearly not enough for a similar car. There are also complaints about electronic assistants, but these are trivialities. This model costs $ 19,000. Essentially, it is inexpensive car with a large trunk and ground clearance.

5th place - Lincoln MKX

With a 1,053-liter trunk, the Lincoln MKX allows a large family to get out into the countryside. Luxurious interior, impeccable automation and reliable engine - these are the main characteristics of the car.

This massive typical American car is powered by either a 2.7-liter 355 horsepower engine or a 3.7-liter engine with increased power. The model will cost 40 thousand dollars.

4th place - Toyota Venza

The Japanese brand needs no introduction. The company makes some of the best cars in the world. In particular, the Toyota Venza is one of the best cars with a large trunk with a capacity of 975 liters. With the seats removed, the volume rises to 1,988 liters.

The interior in the car is ergonomic, restrained, and made like a man. With the seats removed, you can sleep quite comfortably here. Given the possibility of transporting large loads, the owners of these cars insist that there are not enough additional belts.

On the Russian market, the car is presented in only one version - with a 2.7-liter engine with a capacity of 185 horsepower. In mixed mode, he "eats" 10 liters per hundred.

Note that this car is quite popular in the secondary market, so there should be no problems in case of resale. The price of the car starts from 35 thousand dollars.

3rd place - Ford Edge

The standard boot capacity of this car is 1110 liters, but when the rear seats are folded down, it increases to 2079 liters. The owners of these speak about them.

In this, the salon transforms, moves, folds. There are 3 rows of seats available. However, this car also has a drawback - high fuel consumption, which even on the highway exceeds the mark of 10 liters per 100 km.

Conclusion

The article presented a list and photos of cars with a large trunk. Of course, there are quite a few other models in the world that differ in huge luggage racks and sizes, but only best cars renowned manufacturers who have proven their reliability and high quality.

An article about crossovers with the most roomy luggage racks - their features and characteristics. At the end of the article - interesting video about inexpensive station wagons.

The content of the article:

Crossovers are traditionally purchased by those people who often travel out of town - for a picnic, picking mushrooms, to the dacha, and make many kilometers of trips, including with the whole family and an abundance of things. Especially for them, car manufacturers produce models with a spacious luggage compartment, in which they will find a place for crops, sports equipment, and tents and suitcases. We present ten of the most outstanding representatives of all SUV families, and during the review we will also find out which crossover has the largest trunk.

10th place: Cadillac SRX (827 HP, 1730 HP with seats retracted)

Comparison of luggage racks for crossovers, let's start with one of the most popular american cars, comfortable and ergonomic. It is a mid-size crossover, solid externally and internally, whose shapes are smooth, and the interior is trimmed with expensive materials. At the heart of the "American" there are 2 units at choice: 3-liter or 3.6-liter petrol units with automatic transmission.

The owners note the car's impressive power reserve and soft suspension. But with a small ground clearance of 20 centimeters and a too low front overhang, it is absolutely not adapted to the Russian climatic conditions and roads. The suspension can begin to creak quickly enough, and fuel consumption in city mode is up to 23 liters per hundred kilometers. All this makes the car gluttonous and completely urban, which, together with the price of 34.7 thousand dollars, makes the model comfortable, but wasteful.

9th place: Audi Q7 (890 HP, 2075 HP with seats retracted)

This 7-seater German handsome full-size crossover has a whole list of advantages. The trunk has the ability to open and close automatically - you just have to hold your foot under the bumper so that the sensors read the command. The line of engines, like the previous contestant, is presented in two options: a 3-liter gasoline engine with 333 horsepower and a 3-liter diesel engine with 249 horsepower. The first accelerates the car to 100 km in 6.1 seconds, the second - in 6, 9 seconds, and with air suspension even at a speed of 200 km / h, you realize that this is absolutely not the limit for a 2-ton monster.

The only significant drawback of an almost ideal car is its cost - 58, 6 thousand dollars.

8th place: Chevrolet Equinox (892 HP, 1804 HP with seats removed)

Despite the fact that this SUV belongs to the budget class, it does not look like that. The designers approached the look very thoughtfully, making it modern and brutal. You can find fault with the interior in the context of too much plastic in the decoration.

The dimensions of the car are such that in it a person of average height can be in a standing position, only slightly bending his head. And sitting down, you can quite comfortably throw your legs over the torpedo.

In the new generation, the "American" received two gasoline engines: a 2.4-liter 182-horsepower and a 3.6-liter 301-horsepower. Even during a fast ride on the most powerful engine, it is felt that the car still has a reserve of power.

Unfortunately, it is not officially supplied to Russia, so motorists have to order it from America or Europe, where its cost varies between 14-15 thousand dollars. This is the most significant negative feature, since spare parts will have to be ordered in the same way and wait for delivery from abroad. And consumables will really be needed, since the owners note weak stabilizer struts, the need for frequent filter replacement, and problems with ABS.

7th place: Volvo XC 90 (936 HP, 1899 HP with seats retracted)

Russian car owners have long appreciated the reliability, laconic image and safety of the Swedish crossover. Moreover, for the latter quality, the European Committee for Crash Testing awarded the model a record 37 points for the level of driver and pedestrian safety.

Not the largest trunk in the crossover is compensated by the fact that, thanks to the folded seats, you can put items 2.2 meters long into the compartment. The entire vehicle has been designed to provide maximum space and comfort to the driver and passengers.

The range of engines for the model is diverse:

• diesel 2-liter 225-horsepower, consuming 5.8 liters of fuel per 100 km;
• gasoline 2-liter 320-horsepower, consuming 7.7 liters;
• a hybrid 2-liter 320-horsepower, which will require 2.1 liters of gasoline per hundred kilometers.

The interior of the car is impeccable even in the most budgetary version - the owner will have no complaints about the quality of the finish or the materials used. But the electronics will have to be dealt with, since there is a lot of it in the car.

Of course, the hybrid version is the most attractive for the car enthusiast. The only repulsive factor is the price: more than 78 thousand dollars versus 50 thousand for the gasoline version.

6th place: Luxgen 7 SUV (972 HP, 1739 with seats removed)

The Taiwanese brand is finding more and more resonance in the hearts of car owners. This model belongs to the premium segment, which is confirmed by a truly chic interior. The rear seats can be easily pushed back or folded down for more luggage space. And the electric tailgate itself works so softly and silently, which is not the case even on more prestigious models.

Of the shortcomings, the owners note the only gasoline 2.2-liter 175-horsepower engine, which clearly lacks its power. Another nuance is electronic assistants, of which there are many in the car, but they work intermittently and rather slowly. The cost of the car is 19 thousand dollars.

5th place: Toyota Venza (975 HP, 1988 HP with retracted seats)

This brand needs neither introduction nor unnecessary compliments - it is a proven Japanese quality for decades.

The well-executed salon is austere and restrained in a masculine way, but functional and ergonomic. This is a crossover with a large trunk, where with the rear seats retracted, you can even comfortably sleep overnight. Although the owners express the wish that the manufacturer equips the compartment with any fasteners or straps to securely hold the load.

The mid-size 5-seater is also in high demand in the secondary market, so the owner may not worry about the future resale of his property. And even more so, the most eminent Japanese brand will not have problems with maintenance and repair. The price for the most budgetary configuration starts at 35.3 thousand dollars.

4th place: Lincoln MKX (1053 HP, 1948 HP with retracted seats)

At the moment, this rare guest is the easiest to purchase on the secondary market, although the announced new generation of the model should reach Russia on official rights.

Owners have no complaints about this massive, purely American luxury-comfortable model. Its luggage compartment is more than enough to take the whole family and relatives out of town with tents, barbecues, things and toys. And in a luxurious salon, you can transport the most distinguished guests without worrying about the level of prestige of the car.

Due to its size, this monster seems to be clumsy, but once you get behind the wheel, you are surprised by the amazing handling. Powerful 20-inch wheels overcome bumps so that the driver's coffee in a glass does not ripple. And the cruise control system is made so competently that it allows you to read newspapers while driving without worrying about your safety.

The latest version will be equipped with gasoline engines: 2.7-liter 335-horsepower with turbocharging and 3.7-liter 303-horsepower.

The declared cost for the new generation model is 40 thousand dollars.

3rd place: Ford Edge (1110 HP, 2079 HP with seats retracted)

They are called twin brothers with the previous contestant, only one of them is “poor” and the other is “rich”.

Although Ford's interior design was disappointing, it surpassed its relative with the volume of the trunk. The owners assess this model rather contradictory: good, powerful, the engine shows itself too gluttonous, and the spacious interior is too boring in design. Besides, front bumper is so low that it raises concerns on bumps. But the soundproofing of the cabin has caused a lot of praise.

The model is equipped only with gasoline engines, although in the range:

• 2-liter 240-horsepower;
• 3.5-liter 285-horsepower;
• 3.7-liter 305-strong.

The minimum price for the basic configuration starts at $ 20,000.

2nd place: Toyota 4Runner (1311 HP, 2514 with retracted seats)

The name speaks for itself - the car was created for active people, for long journeys and for use in different conditions... A 7-seat salon for big family or a group of like-minded people, as well as a fantastic sized trunk.

Although it bears the name of a mid-size crossover, it will not be scared off-road. With a 4-liter engine, 229-millimeter ground clearance and all-wheel drive, the owner will not be afraid to get lost, turn off the asphalt road and overcome several difficult places.

Motorists note the high comfort, which is known on multi-day trips, and the incomparable reliability of the car.

The model is in demand both in car dealerships and in the secondary market, where its price fluctuates around 30 thousand dollars.

1st place: GMC Acadia (1985 HP, 3288 HP with retracted seats)

Basically, the model is sent to the car markets of Saudi Arabia and America, but in Russia it is quite possible to purchase it by prior order.

This is a family crossover with a large trunk and a multifunctional interior, where everything can be easily transformed, folded and moved. It has 3 rows of seats, a giant trunk and even an empty space underneath for storing small items. The luggage compartment door is equipped with lighting, which will come in handy in forever cloudy Russia. Solid interior has two hatches and a luxurious windshield, which together adds visibility and light in the cabin.

One of the main drawbacks is fuel consumption, which even on the highway is over 10 liters. The next problem is the 19-millimeter ground clearance, which, with a 5-meter length of the car itself, makes it an absolute SUV.

Crossovers with a large trunk in 2017, presented on the domestic market, could be distinguished into a special automotive category. After all, they differ not only in liters of usable volume, but also in general comfort, which makes you feel like at home in the car.

Video about inexpensive station wagons:

Crossovers are extremely popular in our country due to the combination of two characteristics: on the one hand, they have the features of an SUV (increased ground clearance, high seating position of the driver, the possibility of four-wheel drive), and on the other hand, they are comfortable and relatively budgetary, as they are built mainly on a passenger platform with a monocoque body. Crossovers are often chosen for their sporty character, accentuated by an aggressive design, significant capacity and increased cross-country ability, which is important for driving on bad roads, especially in difficult weather conditions.

The great popularity of this category of cars on the market determines a wide selection of crossovers for every taste and wallet: you can find quite high-quality cars with a decent price-quality ratio, even up to 1,000,000 rubles. Of course, the best examples with a really large internal volume, a full 4x4 drive and modern electronics are in price category higher, but different buyers have different priorities: design and comfort are important for someone, while fuel economy and unpretentious maintenance are important for someone.

We offer you an overview of the top 20 best SUVs on russian market in four categories:

• the best compact crossovers;
• popular medium-capacity SUVs;
• comfort class SUVs;
• the best luxury crossovers.

Best compact crossovers

Five SUVs worth up to 1,000,000 rubles fell into this category. All of them are quite compact, have engines from 1.6 liters to 2.0 liters, even in the maximum configuration, but at the same time, they are very economical due to their low weight and dimensions and offer the consumer quite comfortable driving. Disadvantages - often modest equipment, small trunk size and not too dynamic characteristics of power units are fully redeemed at a reasonable price.

5 Citroen C3 Aircross

Best cabin capacity
Country: France
Average price: 980,000 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.3

If for you the appearance of a car and its options are defining indicators when choosing, be sure to pay attention to this model. Here, the engineers seem to have implemented all their developments, and fit into a relatively inexpensive car maximum of useful options. There is everything here, from the banal heated seats and steering wheel, to a sliding panoramic roof and rain sensors. This is not to mention the parking sensors and a huge 7-inch monitor on the control panel.

In addition, the manufacturer offers a huge selection of external modifications. Here they are not limited to color choices. You can choose from spoilers, body kits, grilles and more. In this case, the internal filling will not change. Here the choice is not so extensive. Only two options are offered: a diesel or gasoline engine, as well as a mechanical or automatic transmission gear. Probably, this model cannot be called the best, since this is a typical SUV, of which there are many on the modern market, but the fact that this is the most attractive car in appearance is very difficult to dispute.

4 Renault Duster

Attractive price with good quality
Country: France
Average price: 800,000 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.5

Sometimes it is very difficult to find the ideal ratio of parameters such as price and quality. Especially when it comes to buying a crossover. But the French manufacturer seems to have managed to find a middle ground, thanks to which this model has been the best-selling model for several years now, and is produced especially for Russia. Why is this car so remarkable? To begin with, this is the most inexpensive option on the market today. However, many experts equate it with a full-fledged SUV. And all due to the fact that under the hood of the car a powerful gasoline or diesel engine, there is a plug-in four-wheel drive, and the high ground clearance allows you to travel on the most difficult off-road.

And all this at the most attractive price, but are there any disadvantages? According to experts, in this price category it is best crossover, but buyers have some complaints about the appearance. Indeed, this car can hardly be called the most attractive, although this is already a matter of taste. But if you need a workhorse, then this is the best option.

3 Nissan Qashqai

Best capacity and comfort
Country: Japan
Average price: 973,000 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.7

The updated compact crossover from Nissan, of course, has the highest price in the rating even in the initial configuration, but it is also the most spacious in the class, the safest and best equipped. It has a spacious interior, trunk - 430 liters, ground clearance from 185 to 200 mm.

According to EuroNCAP, the car has 5 stars for active and passive safety, which is not surprising: the basic model already has front and side airbags, emergency braking assistance and EPS vehicle stabilization system.

Comfort level - six-way adjustment of the driver's seat, heated seats, heated mirrors, electric lifters for all doors and a five-inch multi-function display on the dashboard. The main disadvantage is the price. The basic equipment is at the border of 1,000,000 rubles, and the top models of the line are clearly overtaking it.

2 Renault SANDERO Stepway

The most compact crossover
Country: France
