Trunk comparison: Dacia Jogger vs Mercedes Benz GLE

Key Differences (highlighted: >10%)

The Dacia Jogger offers advantages in several points crucial for practical use: the height of the trunk opening is 4.3 in (14%) higher, the usable depth between the loading edge and trunk floor is 3.1 in (700%) greater, and the width at the narrowest point of the trunk is 6.3 in (15%) wider than in the Mercedes‑GLE.

In contrast, the loading edge of the GLE is 4.3 in (17%) higher above the ground than that of the Jogger.

Smaller differences, not highlighted: the GLE has 5.9 in (8%) more cargo length with folded seats, the Jogger has 4.3 in (10%) more length with the first row of seats upright, and the width of the trunk opening is 2.8 in (7%) larger in the GLE.

Impact on Usability

The higher trunk opening of the Jogger makes it easier to load tall items; combined with the significantly greater interior depth (loading edge → trunk floor), more vertical space is created, so bulky or tall cargo needs to be folded down or loaded at an angle less often.

The greater narrowest width of the Jogger increases the chances of fitting wide items inside the vehicle at all.

The higher loading edge of the GLE means more lifting when loading — this is noticeably more strenuous with heavy items or frequent loading/unloading. Conversely, the GLE offers slightly more usable cargo length with folded seats, which can be a small advantage when transporting very long, flat goods.

The slightly larger opening width of the GLE can make inserting wide items easier but is of little use if the interior is narrower at the narrowest point.

Conclusion: For frequent loading of heavy, tall, or bulky items, the Dacia Jogger is clearly more practical due to its lower loading edge, higher opening, greater interior depth, and more narrow width.

The Mercedes‑GLE offers a slight advantage with very long flat loads but is more demanding to handle due to the higher loading edge.
