Trunk comparison: Audi Q3 vs Peugeot 5008

Key Differences

The Peugeot 5008 offers a cargo space that is +8.7 in (13%) longer with the seats folded down than the Audi Q3 and is +5.9 in (17%) longer with the first row of seats upright.

Conversely, the Audi Q3 has a significantly larger trunk with all seats up: +22 in (165%) compared to the Peugeot. Additionally, the depth of the trunk (loading edge to trunk floor) is +3.1 in (800%) greater in the Audi. The Peugeot has an advantage in the narrowest width by +5.9 in (15%).

Impact on Usability

These differences clearly affect practical use: The Peugeot 5008 is advantageous when length and width of the cargo space matter — it is better suited for long items (with seats folded) and bulky loads because it is both longer and wider at the narrowest point.

This makes it more flexible for family or leisure use when seats are folded or longer cargo needs to be transported.

The Audi Q3 scores when regularly using all seats: Its significantly larger trunk with all seats upright means more usable volume when many passengers are on board and luggage still needs to be carried.

The greater depth of the Audi can additionally create volume (smaller items can be stored deeper), but it negatively affects loading heavy, bulky items because the trunk floor lies further below the loading edge.

Smaller differences such as the Peugeot's opening being 0.8 in higher or approximately 2.4 in difference in loading edge height are under 10% and usually negligible in practice.
