Trunk comparison: Audi Q5 vs Peugeot 3008

Key Differences

Among the reported differences, two values stand out clearly: the trunk depth of the Peugeot 3008 is 1.2 in (38%) greater than that of the Audi Q5, and the width of the trunk opening of the Audi Q5 is 4.3 in (11%) larger than that of the Peugeot.

Other differences are minor: the Peugeot has slightly longer cargo lengths (+0.4 in and +1.6 in), the loading edge of the Peugeot is 2.4 in higher above the ground (+8%), and the narrowest trunk width is only 0.8 in larger in the Q5. The height of the opening differs by just 0.4 in.

Impact on Usability

The significantly greater trunk depth of the Peugeot means more usable volume below the loading edge: deeper, higher-stacked cargo fits better in the 3008, and bulky items with a small footprint but greater height are more likely to fit.

At the same time, the loading edge of the Peugeot is somewhat higher (+2.4 in), which makes lifting heavy items a bit more strenuous and can make loading and unloading more difficult for physically weaker individuals.

The significantly wider trunk opening of the Audi Q5 makes loading and unloading wide items easier (e.g., furniture parts, strollers, wide boxes).

The larger opening requires less maneuvering, and bulky, flat-packed goods can usually be accommodated more easily. Since the differences in cargo length and opening height are only a few percent, they are hardly noticeable in most everyday situations.

Conclusion: For wider, bulky objects, the Audi Q5 is more practical in everyday use thanks to the wider opening. For deep, high-stacked cargo, the Peugeot 3008 offers more usable space, although the somewhat higher loading sill can make handling heavy loads more difficult.
