Trunk comparison: Hyundai i10 vs Peugeot 3008

Key Differences (highlighted: >10%)

The Peugeot 3008 offers significantly more cargo length: with the seats folded down it is +19.3 in (42%) longer, and with the first row of seats upright even +20.5 in (111%) compared to the Hyundai i10. Additionally, the width of the trunk opening on the Peugeot is +4.7 in (13%) larger, which makes loading wider items easier.

The Hyundai has another clear advantage: the depth of the trunk (distance from loading edge → trunk floor) is +2.8 in (64%) greater, meaning a deeper cargo well. The loading edge of the Peugeot is also +3.9 in (14%) higher above the road than that of the Hyundai.

Impact on Usability

For transport tasks involving long or wide items (e.g., slats, furniture parts, long boxes), the Peugeot is clearly advantageous: the significantly greater interior length, especially with the first row of seats upright (+111%), and the wider opening (+13%) make loading and storing such cargo easier and more flexible.

Those who frequently transport bulky or long cargo will face fewer restrictions with the 3008.

The Hyundai i10, on the other hand, scores in the practical handling of heavy or bulky but not particularly long cargo: the deeper loading surface (- deeper cargo well) allows volume below the loading edge to be used and items to be stably recessed.

Combined with the lower loading edge of the i10 (compared to the 3008), this means less effort to lift over the threshold and easier loading of heavy items. For groceries, suitcases, or everyday portable stuff, this can be more important in practice than maximum length.

Smaller differences (trunk opening height +5% in favor of the i10, narrowest width +2% in favor of the i10) are minor and hardly affect everyday usability.
