Trunk comparison: Hyundai i10 vs VW Touran

Key Differences (Highlighted)

The VW Touran offers significantly more cargo length with the seats folded down: +24 in (52%) compared to the Hyundai i10. When the front row is upright, the Touran is even +21.3 in (115%) longer. In contrast, the Hyundai i10 has a larger trunk when all seats are upright: +5.1 in (38%).

The depth between the loading edge and trunk floor is significantly greater in the i10: +6.7 in (1700%). The loading edge of the i10 is also higher above the road: +3.1 in (13%).

The trunk opening of the Touran is wider: +5.5 in (16%). Smaller differences such as the height of the trunk opening (+1.6 in / 5%) or the narrowest width (+0.8 in / 2%) are minor and have not been highlighted here.

Implications for Usability

The VW Touran clearly has the advantage when transporting long or wide items: the significantly greater cargo length with folded seats and upright front row makes it the better vehicle for furniture, long slats, or bulky sports equipment. The wider trunk opening facilitates loading and unloading wide packages.

The Hyundai i10 scores when all seats need to be used: its larger trunk with full seating offers more space for groceries or luggage in everyday use.

The significantly greater depth between the loading edge and trunk floor increases the usable volume in the cargo area (more room for tall items inside the trunk), while the higher loading edge makes lifting heavy loads a bit more strenuous.

In summary: For families, moves, or regular transport of long and wide cargo, the VW Touran is more suitable. For city driving with full seating and occasionally more depth in the cargo floor, the Hyundai i10 is more practical.
