Trunk comparison: Ford S-MAX vs Jeep Avenger Electric

Key Differences

The Ford S‑Max offers significantly more cargo length: with the seats folded down, the trunk is 25.2 in (48%) longer, and with the first row upright, it is 17.7 in (67%) longer than the Jeep Avenger Electric.

The width at the narrowest point is 5.1 in (14%) greater in the S‑Max, and the height of the trunk opening is 5.5 in (18%) higher than in the Avenger.

On the Jeep side, the greater depth between the loading edge and the trunk floor stands out: this is 3.1 in (267%) higher in the Avenger.

Additionally, the loading edge of the Avenger is 5.9 in (26%) higher above the road than that of the S‑Max. The width of the trunk opening differs by only 7% in favor of the S‑Max, which is below the highlight threshold.

Impact on Usability

For transporting long items such as slats, furniture parts, or scooters, the S‑Max is clearly advantageous: the significantly greater cargo length — both with folded seats and with the first row upright — allows loading without complicated angling or disassembly.

The larger minimum interior width improves the stowing of wide boxes or strollers, and the higher trunk opening of the S‑Max makes it easier to load tall items.

The Jeep Avenger scores with a deeper recess between the loading edge and the trunk floor. This creates a somewhat "hidden" area below the upper loading level, which can be useful for flat-stacked luggage or groceries.

In practice, however, this advantage is offset by the significantly higher loading edge: the Avenger's loading edge is 5.9 in higher above the road, making it harder to lift heavy items in.

Those who frequently lift heavy loads or transport bulky, long parts will therefore benefit more from the lower loading sill and greater length of the S‑Max.

In summary: the S‑Max is the more practical choice for transporting items requiring length, width, and easy loading. The Avenger offers a deeper interior chamber but demands more lifting effort due to the higher loading edge and is less suitable for long or wide loads.
