Trunk comparison: Jeep Avenger Electric vs VW ID.3
Key Differences
The VW ID.3 offers significantly more cargo space in length: With the seats folded down, the trunk of the ID.3 is
longer, and with the front row upright, it is
longer than the Jeep Avenger Electric. Additionally, the trunk depth (loading edge to trunk floor) of the ID.3 is
greater. At the narrowest point, the loading width of the ID.3 is
wider than the Avenger. Smaller differences, not exceeding 10%: The trunk opening of the Avenger is 1.6 in (5%) higher, the loading opening of the Avenger is 1.2 in (3%) wider, and the loading edge of the ID.3 is 2 in (7%) higher above the road.
What are the implications for usability?
The greater length and width of the ID.3 make it more practical for longer and wider cargo: furniture, longer skis, or several large suitcases can be accommodated more easily, both with folded seats and with full seating. The significantly greater depth of the ID.3 increases usable volume and allows for deeper stacking of luggage. At the same time, the higher loading edge on the ID.3 (plus 2 in) increases the effort required to lift heavy items into the trunk. For frequent loading of heavy cargo, this can be a disadvantage compared to the Avenger, whose lower loading edge makes loading and unloading easier. The Avenger scores points despite smaller interior dimensions with a slightly higher trunk opening (+1.6 in) and a marginally wider opening (+1.2 in). This makes it somewhat easier to load very tall or bulky items, even though there is overall less depth and length available. In summary: Those who regularly need to transport long or wide cargo or require maximum volume will noticeably benefit from the ID.3. Those who more often carry heavy or very tall, bulky cargo and prefer a lower loading sill will find the Jeep Avenger more practical.
