Trunk comparison: Hyundai IONIQ vs Nissan Rogue Sport

Key Differences

The most noticeable differences concern the dimensions of the trunk opening and the depth of the trunk: The Nissan Qashqai has a trunk opening that is 5.5 in (21%) higher and 7.1 in (19%) wider than the Hyundai IONIQ.

Conversely, the depth of the trunk (from loading edge to trunk floor) in the Hyundai IONIQ is 2.4 in (100%) greater than in the Qashqai.

Smaller differences under 10% include: the Qashqai has a +0.8 in (1%) longer trunk with folded seats, the IONIQ has a +1.6 in (5%) longer trunk with the first row of seats upright, the loading edge of the Qashqai is +1.2 in (4%) higher above the ground, and the narrowest trunk width is +1.6 in (4%) larger in the Qashqai.

Impact on Usability

The larger opening dimensions of the Qashqai (higher and significantly wider) make it easier to load tall or wide items: furniture, boxes, or bulky sports equipment can be loaded standing up or without much maneuvering.

The significantly greater depth of the IONIQ means that longer items can fit further behind the loading edge and the usable cargo space in length is larger — practical for long, flat items like slats, skis, or several suitcases in a row.

The slightly lower loading edge of the IONIQ (1.2 in difference) makes lifting heavy loads slightly easier; the other length differences with folded/upright seats are small and hardly affect everyday usability.

Overall: those who frequently transport tall or wide cargo benefit from the Qashqai; those who often need to accommodate longer items or value somewhat easier lifting have advantages with the IONIQ.
