Trunk comparison: Mazda Mazda CX-60 vs Skoda Fabia

Key Differences

In terms of cargo space, the Mazda CX‑60 has significantly longer loading areas: with the seats folded down, the CX‑60 is 12.6 in (23%) longer, and with the first row of seats upright, 9.4 in (32%) longer than the Škoda Fabia.

The narrowest width in the trunk is also larger in the CX‑60: plus 4.3 in (12%). In contrast, the Fabia offers a significantly greater depth between the loading edge and the trunk floor: plus 7.5 in (1800%) compared to the CX‑60.

Other, smaller differences (under 10%) include: the Fabia’s trunk opening is 2.4 in (8%) higher, the CX‑60’s loading edge is 2.4 in (9%) higher above the road, and the width of the CX‑60’s trunk opening is 3.5 in (9%) larger.

What are the practical implications of these differences?

Thanks to the significantly greater loading lengths, the Mazda CX‑60 is more versatile for long items (e.g., slats, skis, furniture parts). Whether the seats are folded down or the first row remains upright, longer loads can be transported much more easily.

The greater narrow interior width of the CX‑60 makes it easier to store wider boxes or items that need to be guided through the narrowest point. In practice, this means fewer problems transporting bulky but not necessarily tall goods.

The significantly greater depth of the Škoda Fabia (loading edge to trunk floor) indicates a deeper cargo compartment: this creates more usable volume below the loading edge and is better suited for tall or bulky cargo that should be “recessed” in the trunk.

At the same time, a deeper floor can make lifting heavy items onto loading height easier because they lie lower — but this can make maneuvering long loads more difficult, as the usable length is relatively shorter.

The smaller differences (opening height, loading edge height, opening width) do affect loading but are less decisive: the higher trunk opening of the Fabia helps when loading very tall objects, while the slightly higher loading edge of the CX‑60 slightly complicates handling heavy loads.

In summary: For long and comparatively wide cargo, the Mazda CX‑60 is the more practical choice. For deep, bulky cargo or when a lot of space below the loading edge is desired, the Škoda Fabia offers advantages.
