Trunk comparison: Peugeot 5008 vs Seat Ibiza

Key Differences

The trunk lengths vary depending on the seat configuration: With all seats folded down, the Peugeot 5008 is 18.5 in (33%) longer, while with all seats upright, the SEAT Ibiza is 13.4 in (100%) longer.

Additionally, the Peugeot offers a 14.6 in (54%) longer cargo area with the first row of seats upright compared to the Ibiza.

In terms of depth (distance from loading edge to trunk floor), the SEAT Ibiza is 7.1 in (1800%) deeper, but the loading edge height is the same. Regarding width, the Peugeot has an advantage: 6.3 in (16%) wider at the narrowest point and 9.8 in (28%) wider opening than the Ibiza.

Impact on Usability

- Peugeot 5008: Due to the greater length with folded seats and significantly larger width (narrow point and opening), the 5008 is better suited for long or wide and bulky items (e.g., furniture parts, long boxes, wide sports equipment).

The larger opening makes it easier to maneuver bulky items inside. The same loading edge height means no additional lifting compared to the Ibiza.

- SEAT Ibiza: With seats upright, the Ibiza offers significantly more trunk length, making it more practical when regularly transporting passengers with luggage (e.g., suitcases in daily use).

The considerably greater depth to the trunk floor provides more vertical capacity (better for taller items or more stacking height) but can make handling heavy items more difficult when lifting them in, as they need to be lowered further inside.

- Common Aspects: The small difference in opening height (≈3%) and the same loading edge height are negligible in everyday use.

Conclusion

For regular transport of long or wide items, the Peugeot 5008 is the better choice. For trips with multiple passengers and lots of luggage with seats upright or for storing taller items, the SEAT Ibiza scores higher.
