Trunk comparison: Mazda Mazda CX-60 vs Volvo XC40

Summary of Differences

There are no deviations over 10% in the specified dimensions. The biggest differences are: with the first row of seats upright, the Mazda CX-60's trunk is 2.8 in (≈8%) longer, and with the seats folded down, it is 2 in (≈3%) longer. The trunk opening of the CX-60 is 1.2 in (≈4%) higher, the narrowest trunk width and the width of the opening are each 1.2 in (≈3%) larger. The trunk depth is the same, and the loading edge of the Volvo XC40 is 0.4 in (≈1%) higher above the ground.

Impact on Usability

Since no difference exceeds 10%, the practical usability of both models remains very similar. Practically relevant are the smaller but noticeable advantages of the CX-60: the 2.8 in longer loading area with the first row of seats upright makes it easier to store longer items without folding down the front bench (e.g., long boxes, skis, or slats), and the greater opening height as well as the slightly larger width make loading bulky or angular cargo easier. The 0.4 in lower loading edge of the CX-60 makes lifting heavy items in slightly easier. With the same trunk depth, floor space and loading capacity near the floor are comparable. For typical everyday tasks — shopping, luggage, medium-sized furniture — both vehicles are almost equally suitable; those who frequently transport longer or bulky items have a slight advantage with the CX-60.
