Trunk comparison: BMW X2 vs Dacia Duster

Key Differences

The most obvious difference is the height of the trunk opening: The Dacia Duster has a 5.9 in (23%) higher trunk opening than the BMW X2. Additionally, the trunk depth (measured from the loading edge to the trunk floor) is 0.4 in (13%) greater in the BMW X2 compared to the Duster.

All other mentioned deviations are below the 10% threshold (length and width differences, as well as the BMW's loading edge being 1.6 in higher), making them comparatively insignificant.

Impact on Usability

The higher trunk opening of the Duster significantly facilitates loading and unloading tall or bulky items: plants, large boxes, upright furniture parts, or crates of goods fit more easily without needing to be tilted or turned.

Loading bulky items from a standing position is also more ergonomic, as less angle adjustment is required.

The greater trunk depth of the BMW X2 means items can slide further into the cargo space and lie deeper. This is advantageous when you want to store flatter or longer items securely and flush (e.g., long boxes, tools, flat furniture parts) or place luggage lower for a lower center of gravity.

However, the BMW's loading edge is slightly higher, which minimally complicates lifting heavy parts — though this effect is small.

Since width and most length differences are very minor, wide or long loads are practically equally accommodated between the two vehicles.

In summary: the Duster is the more practical choice for tall, bulky cargo and easy loading and unloading; the BMW X2 offers a slightly deeper storage area for flatter or longer items and a somewhat more protected, deeper cargo space.
