Trunk comparison: BMW X2 vs Hyundai i10

Key Differences

The BMW X2 offers significantly more cargo length: with the seats folded down, the trunk of the X2 is 18.9 in (41%) longer than that of the Hyundai i10, and when the front row of seats is upright, it is even 18.1 in (98%) longer.

In contrast, the Hyundai i10 has larger vertical dimensions: the height of the trunk opening is 6.3 in (24%) higher on the i10 and the depth of the trunk (loading edge to trunk floor) is 3.5 in (100%) greater than on the BMW X2. Additionally, the loading edge of the BMW X2 sits 3.9 in (14%) higher above the road than that of the i10.

Impact on Usability

For longer or bulky items (e.g., bicycles without front wheel, long furniture parts, large suitcases), the BMW X2 clearly has the advantage: the significantly greater loading length both with folded and upright seats allows for storing longer cargo and in many cases more total volume.

Those who frequently transport long items or use the trunk by folding down the rear seats benefit from the X2.

The Hyundai i10, on the other hand, scores points when loading and unloading taller or bulkier items: the higher trunk opening and greater depth of the cargo area make it easier to load bulky, tall objects and provide more usable height in the trunk.

Additionally, the lower loading edge in the i10 makes lifting heavy loads into the trunk less strenuous compared to the higher loading edge of the X2.

Small differences in width (only a few percent) play a minor role in everyday use; the decisive factors are the mentioned differences in length, opening height, depth, and loading edge height when choosing based on transport needs: X2 for longer cargo and more flexibility through foldable seats, i10 for easier loading and more vertical storage space with compact exterior dimensions.
