Trunk comparison: Hyundai i10 vs VW Tiguan Allspace

Main Differences

The VW Tiguan Allspace offers significantly more cargo length with the seats folded down: +28.3 in (61%) compared to the Hyundai i10. Even with the first row of seats upright, the Tiguan's advantage is even greater: +25.6 in (138%). However, when all seats are upright, the lengths of both trunks are the same.

The Hyundai i10 has a higher trunk opening: +3.9 in (14%) compared to the Tiguan. Also in its favor is the depth between the loading edge and the trunk floor: +7.1 in (1700%). The VW, on the other hand, has a significantly wider trunk opening: +9.4 in (27%).

Impact on Usability

For long or bulky items (e.g., skis, slats, long furniture parts), the VW Tiguan Allspace is clearly advantageous: the significantly larger usable loading length with folded seats and with the first row upright allows loading longer items without folding down seats or complicated angles.

The wider trunk opening of the Tiguan also makes it easier to load wider cargo.

The Hyundai i10 scores in manageable, frequent everyday tasks: the higher trunk opening and the significantly greater depth from the loading edge to the interior floor mean easier handling of tall or bulky items and a lower-lying cargo volume where small items can lie more securely.

Additionally, the i10's loading edge is lower (VW loading edge is +2.8 in higher), which makes lifting heavy loads easier.

In short: for transporting long or wide items, the VW Tiguan Allspace is the better choice; for convenient loading and unloading, secure holding of smaller items, and everyday practicality, the Hyundai i10 is more favorable.
