Trunk comparison: Peugeot 5008 vs Skoda Superb Wagon

Key Differences

The Škoda Superb Wagon offers significantly more cargo length with seats up (+28.3 in / +212%) than the Peugeot 5008. Even with the rear seats folded down, the Škoda is longer (+9.8 in / +13%).

The depth of the cargo area (distance from loading edge to trunk floor) is significantly greater (+2.8 in / +700%) in the Škoda.

In contrast, the Peugeot has a noticeably higher loading edge: the loading edge of the Peugeot is 3.9 in (+17%) higher. Additionally, the narrowest point in the Peugeot's trunk is wider (+5.5 in / +14%) than in the Škoda.

Impact on Usability

Škoda Superb Wagon: Due to the significantly greater usable cargo length with seats up (+212%), the Superb is better suited for long items without folding the seats (e.g., furniture transport, long sports equipment).

The greater depth of the cargo area means more usable storage space and better stackability; combined with the lower loading edge (Škoda sits lower than Peugeot), this makes lifting heavy loads easier.

Peugeot 5008: The shorter cargo length, especially with seats up, limits the transport of long items without folding the seats.

However, the narrowest point in the trunk is wider (+5.5 in), giving the Peugeot an advantage when transporting wide or bulky cargo that depends more on width than length. The higher loading edge (+3.9 in) makes lifting heavy loads less convenient than in the Škoda.

In summary: Those who frequently transport long or heavier items and want easier loading will benefit from the Škoda Superb Wagon. Those who often carry wide but not necessarily very long cargo will find a more favorable interior cross-sectional width in the Peugeot 5008.
