Trunk comparison: Opel Grandland vs Peugeot 3008

Key Differences and Impact on Usability

The Peugeot 3008 offers a cargo space length that is 3.9 in (≈11%) longer with the first row of seats upright than the Opel Grandland. This means: with the seats in their normal position, longer, flat items can be transported more easily in the 3008 (e.g., doors, long boxes, or skis) without folding down the seats.

The Opel Grandland has a significantly greater trunk depth (loading edge → trunk floor): +2 in, which corresponds to about 45%.

Practically, this means: the Grandland offers more depth/volume behind the loading edge, allows for deeper placement of bulky or tall items, and provides a lower center of gravity for the cargo when loading. This makes it advantageous for bulky, irregularly shaped loads or when stackable space is needed.

Other, smaller differences: The trunk opening of the Opel is 1.2 in (≈4%) higher and the opening width is 2.4 in (≈6%) larger than that of the Peugeot, which facilitates loading wider items.

The loading edge of the Peugeot is 0.8 in (≈3%) higher above the ground, which slightly complicates lifting heavy cargo. With the seats fully folded down, the differences are minimal: the Opel is only 0.8 in (≈1%) longer. The narrowest width in the trunk is the same for both models.

Summary in brief: Those who regularly transport long, flat items and mostly keep the seats upright have the advantage in the Peugeot 3008. Those who more frequently load bulky or tall/non-compressible cargo and benefit from a deeper loading floor and slightly larger opening are better served by the Opel Grandland.
