Trunk comparison: Mazda Mazda CX-60 vs Mercedes Benz GLB

Key Differences (highlighted >10%)

There are two trunk differences clearly exceeding 10%: The trunk opening height of the Mercedes‑Benz GLB is 4.7 in (16%) higher than that of the Mazda CX‑60. Additionally, the trunk depth, measured from the loading edge to the trunk floor, is 4.7 in (1100%) greater in the GLB compared to the CX‑60.

Impact on Usability

The higher trunk opening of the GLB makes loading tall items (e.g., boxes, bicycle tires standing upright) easier because more vertical space is available at the opening, and bulky cargo needs to be tilted less often.

The significantly greater depth between the loading edge and trunk floor in the GLB means more usable interior space behind the loading edge and allows for secure storage of lower-lying or longer items, but it increases the reach distance when loading; combined with the slightly lower loading edge of the GLB, this results in overall more comfortable loading operations.

Other, Smaller Differences

With seats folded down, the GLB is only 1.6 in (2%) longer; with the first row upright, the Mazda has a 1.2 in (3%) longer cargo floor. The width at the narrowest point is 0.4 in (1%) greater in the GLB, while the trunk opening width is 1.2 in (3%) larger in the Mazda.

The Mazda's loading edge is 0.8 in (3%) higher above the road. These smaller differences have rather marginal effects in everyday use: the Mazda is minimally more practical for very flat, wide cargo at the opening, while the GLB offers noticeably more interior height and depth for bulky or low-lying cargo.
