Trunk comparison: Audi Q2 vs Seat Ibiza

Key Differences

There are two clearly relevant differences in the cargo space: With the rear seat upright, the Audi Q2 offers a noticeably longer loading floor by 3.9 in (15%) compared to the SEAT Ibiza, which makes it easier to carry longer items with the rear seat normally occupied.

The biggest difference lies in the depth of the trunk (loading edge to trunk floor): the SEAT Ibiza is 3.1 in (73%) deeper here than the Audi Q2. Smaller deviations are: the Q2 has only slightly more length when folded down (+1.6 in, 3%), the width at the narrowest point is the same, the trunk opening is somewhat wider on the Q2 (+2.4 in, 7%), and the opening height is slightly greater on the Ibiza (+2 in, 6%).

The loading edge of the Q2 is 2.8 in (10%) higher above the road than that of the Ibiza.

Impact on Usability

The longer loading length of the Q2 with the rear seat upright makes it more practical for long, flat items (e.g., boards, skis, or long boxes) when passengers are still seated in the back. With the rear seat folded down, the volume differences are marginal.

The significantly greater depth of the Ibiza means that cargo sits further below the loading edge. Combined with the lower loading edge of the Ibiza, this results in overall easier access for heavy or bulky items: less lifting height when loading and more usable depth for stackable or tall items.

For regular loading and unloading of heavy loads or moving, the Ibiza is therefore more comfortable.

The slightly higher loading edge of the Q2 requires a bit more strength when lifting heavy items, but the somewhat wider opening width of the Q2 can make it easier to insert wide items. The greater opening height of the Ibiza helps when loading tall objects but is only a moderate advantage (≈6%).

Conclusion: Those who frequently transport long items and usually keep the rear seat occupied benefit more from the Audi Q2. Those who often need to load and unload heavy or bulky cargo comfortably and benefit from a deeper loading floor and lower loading edge will find the SEAT Ibiza the more practical solution.

For normal everyday use (shopping, luggage), the differences are minor.
