Trunk comparison: Audi A4 Avant vs Peugeot 5008

Comparison of trunk dimensions for the Audi A4 Avant and Peugeot 5008

Biggest Differences (Highlighted)

Audi A4 Avant offers significantly more cargo length with seats upright: +28 in (209%). This means that when all seats are used normally, the usable trunk space of the Audi is considerably longer than that of the Peugeot.

The depth of the trunk (loading edge → trunk floor) is significantly greater in the Audi: +1.6 in (400%). Practically, this means more usable volume in the depth of the cargo area.

Peugeot 5008 is wider inside at the narrowest point: +6.3 in (16%) and the trunk opening is larger: +4.3 in (11%). This makes it easier to load wider or bulkier items and maneuver them through the opening.

Implications for Usability

- Audi A4 Avant is the better choice when longer luggage or suitcases need to be transported with occupied seats (no folded seats). The significantly longer cargo space allows longer items to be stored behind the seat rows.

- The greater depth in the Audi creates more usable interior space lengthwise; this is advantageous when stacking or transporting bulky, longer cargo that not only has to fit through the opening but also requires space inside.

- The Peugeot 5008 is better suited for wide, bulky cargo: the greater width at the narrowest point and the wider opening make it easier to load boxes, furniture parts, or wide sports equipment. Wide items can be more easily rotated and positioned in the 5008.

- Smaller differences: With folded seats, the 5008 is minimally longer (+2 in / 3%) — hardly noticeable. The trunk opening of the Audi is about +2 in (6%) higher, the loading edge of the Peugeot is +2.4 in (10%) higher above the road; these values have little to moderate impact on handling when lifting and rolling in.

Conclusion

For maximum length and depth with occupied seats, the Audi A4 Avant is clearly advantageous. For loading wider or bulkier items, the Peugeot 5008 scores with greater interior width and a wider opening. The choice depends on the typical cargo profile: longer/stacked loads → Audi; wide/bulky loads → Peugeot.
