Trunk comparison: Fiat Panda vs Skoda Elroq

Key Differences (>10%)

The Škoda Elroq offers significantly more loading length: with the seats folded down, the Elroq's trunk is 22 in (50%) longer than the Fiat Panda's, and with the first row of seats upright, the advantage is 10.2 in (48%).

In contrast, the Fiat Panda has larger vertical dimensions: the trunk opening is 4.7 in (16%) higher and the distance between the loading edge and trunk floor is 6.7 in (1700%) greater.

The loading edge height is the same, and width differences at the narrowest point (+0.4 in / 1%) and the opening width (+1.2 in / 3% in favor of the Elroq) are minor and negligible.

Impact on Usability

The Elroq is better suited for long or flat-load items (e.g., long boxes, boards, multiple large suitcases) because it offers significantly more cargo length—especially when the rear seats are folded down.

The Panda is more practical for tall or bulky loads: the higher trunk opening makes it easier to load tall items, and the greater depth between the loading edge and floor allows items to be recessed deeper, so they protrude less.

Since the loading edge height is identical, the lifting effort when loading differs little. Width limitations play hardly any role in practice because the measured width differences are under 10%.
