Trunk comparison: Jeep Renegade vs Volvo XC60

Key Differences

The Volvo XC60 offers a significantly longer cargo space: when folding down all seats, the trunk is 9.8 in (≈16%) longer, and with the first row of seats upright, it is even 7.5 in (≈25%) longer than in the Jeep Renegade.

Also in favor of the Volvo is the usable width: the narrowest point in the trunk is 5.9 in (≈16%) wider and the width of the trunk opening is 5.5 in (≈14%) larger than in the Renegade.

The Jeep Renegade has other strengths: the height of the trunk opening is 5.9 in (≈20%) higher than in the Volvo, and the depth of the trunk (distance from loading edge to trunk floor) is 5.5 in (≈1300%) greater — it therefore has a much more pronounced loading floor or trunk "well."

Impact on Usability

Volvo XC60 — better for long and wide cargo: Due to the longer dimensions and the larger opening and interior width, long, flat, or wide items (e.g., furniture parts, long boxes, folding bikes, strollers) can be more easily accommodated and loaded through the opening.

When the seats are upright, there is also more depth, making the XC60 more flexible for everyday transport.

Jeep Renegade — better for tall and "deep-seated" cargo: The higher trunk opening makes it easier to load tall items in the upright position (e.g., boxes, tall plants).

The significantly greater interior depth (deeper trunk floor below the loading edge) ensures that cargo sits deeper and more securely in the vehicle and is less likely to slip out — good for loose or irregularly shaped luggage.

Disadvantages are the smaller interior length and width: very wide or long items fit less often without folding down the seats or more effort.

In summary: For large, wide, or long transports, the Volvo XC60 is the more practical choice. For cargo that should sit deeper in the vehicle or stand tall, the Jeep Renegade offers advantages.
