Trunk comparison: Skoda Kamiq vs Volvo V90

Key Differences (highlighted: >10%)

The Volvo V90 offers significantly more cargo length: with the seats folded down, the trunk is 16.1 in (27%) longer, and with the first row upright, it is 15.7 in (54%) longer than in the Škoda Kamiq. The width of the trunk opening is 4.7 in (12%) larger in the V90, which makes loading wider items easier.

Several dimensions are noticeably larger in the Kamiq: the height of the trunk opening is 5.5 in (20%) higher than that of the V90, the distance from the loading edge to the trunk floor is 6.3 in (1500%) greater in the Kamiq, and the loading edge itself is 3.5 in (15%) higher above the road than in the V90. The narrowest width inside the trunk is only 2.4 in (6%) larger in the V90 — this value is below 10% and therefore not highlighted.

Impact on Usability

The longer cargo areas of the Volvo V90 clearly make it more suitable for long or bulky loads (e.g., furniture, long packages, skis inside the cabin). The larger opening width supports loading wide-format items and increases practical usability for large, bulky cargo.

The Škoda Kamiq, on the other hand, offers advantages in vertical usable height at the transition to the cargo area: the higher opening height allows for placing taller items in the rear area, which can be useful for tall but not too deep loads.

However, two factors hinder handling heavy or large items in the Kamiq: the significantly higher loading edge (+3.5 in) increases the effort required to lift items into the vehicle, and the much larger difference between the loading edge and the trunk floor (the stated +6.3 in / 1500%) indicates a stronger "step" effect when loading — items must first be lifted over an edge and then lowered into a recessed area.

This complicates pushing and rolling heavy loads and reduces everyday practicality for frequent loading and unloading.

In summary: For transport tasks involving long, wide, or bulky items, the Volvo V90 is the more practical choice.

For situations where more vertical opening height at the opening is important (but less emphasis is placed on easy handling of heavy loads), the Škoda Kamiq can offer advantages — overall, however, the V90 is more versatile and comfortable for loading.
