Trunk dimensions BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer

The BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer from 2016 offers a trunk volume of about 22.8 cu ft with the rear seats folded down and around 19.8 cu ft with the rear bench upright. The rear bench is flexibly split, allowing a 40:20:40 split configuration, which facilitates adapting the cargo space.

The interior design is high-quality, with practical storage compartments and a low loading edge that makes loading and unloading easier.

The trunk dimensions vary within the model range, with a rectangular basic shape that enables efficient use of space. Practicality is supported by the ability to fold the seats flat and by the good accessibility of the trunk.

Model Information

The BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer is a compact van characterized by its versatility and family-friendliness. It offers seating for up to seven people and combines the benefits of a spacious interior with the sporty driving dynamics BMW is known for.

The Gran Tourer is ideal for families and active lifestyles, providing a comfortable and safe ride both in city traffic and on longer trips.

Variants of the Same Series

Within the BMW 2 Series lineup, there are various variants that differ in design and functionality. Besides the Gran Tourer, there is the BMW 2 Series Coupe and the BMW 2 Series Convertible, which are sportier.

These models should not be confused with the Gran Tourer, as they offer less space and target a different audience. The Gran Tourer stands out with its elevated seating position and focus on family-friendliness.

Yearly Differences

The BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer was first introduced in 2015 and received a facelift in 2020, which brought both visual and technical changes.

These changes included slight increases in body dimensions, which also affected the trunk volume. The adjustments led to improved space utilization and an even more comfortable interior.

Direct Competitors

In the same vehicle class, there are several models competing with the BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer, including the Volkswagen Touran and the Ford S-Max. The Volkswagen Touran offers a trunk volume of up to 65.6 cu ft, while the Ford S-Max holds up to 71.3 cu ft.

In comparison, the Gran Tourer offers similar flexibility but with a somewhat smaller maximum volume. Differences in trunk volume can vary depending on configuration and equipment.

More Affordable Alternatives

For buyers seeking similar trunk volume at a lower price, models like the Dacia Lodgy or the Skoda Kodiaq are interesting alternatives. The Dacia Lodgy offers a trunk volume of up to 29.2 cu ft, while the Skoda Kodiaq holds up to 72.9 cu ft.

Both models are more affordable to purchase and still provide sufficient space for families and luggage, although they do not have the same brand identity as BMW.

Cargo space BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer

BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer trunk space volume — Trunk volume BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer

Trunk Volume

The trunk of the BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer (2016) holds 13.8 cu ft (manufacturer and independent measurement). This is -7.14% below average. Relative to the vehicle volume, the cargo space makes up about 5.9% (−0.6 percentage points compared to the average).

Practical implications: 13.8 cu ft are sufficient for daily shopping, two travel suitcases, or a stroller, but not a top value for family vacations.

Removing the cargo cover increases usable volume to 23.7 cu ft up to the roof; with the rear seats folded down, it is 26 cu ft up to the window sill and even 53.1 cu ft up to the roof. This makes the vehicle significantly more versatile for larger transports.

Vehicle Size and Parking Friendliness

Dimensions: 179.5 in length, 70.9 in width, 63.4 in height. Compared to a mid-size car, it is practically the same length (−0.1%), but 2 in narrower and 2 in taller.

Compared to a standard parking space, the Gran Tourer is 17.3 in shorter and 27.6 in narrower, making it easy to park in standard parking spots. The slightly reduced width can be limiting when loading very wide items but favors maneuvering in tight underground garages.

Trunk Usability and Flexibility

Special usage features:

5.1 in longitudinally sliding rear bench – allows adjustment between rear legroom and cargo volume.
Three-part, easy-to-operate rear seatbacks; foldable from the front or by button from the trunk.
With the third row installed, the volume behind these seats shrinks to 4.1 cu ft – practically only for small bags or shopping; the third row is therefore only suitable for occasional use (children/emergencies).
Under the trunk floor, a compartment offers 3 cu ft of additional storage space (if no third seats), additional compartments, hooks, net, elastic band, and a 12-V socket increase everyday usability.
Optional: electric tailgate (open/close by button) and convenience package with foot sensor. The tailgate opening angle is large enough that persons up to ≈1.85 m can stand upright underneath.
The loading opening is high and wide, the loading floor is at a comfortable height of 27.2 in above the road surface — facilitates loading and unloading. Note: the lock striker can be uncomfortable for tall persons; interior lighting could be better.

Everyday effect: The combination of sliding bench, many compartments, and extensive conversion options makes the Gran Tourer very flexible — from daily shopping to transporting children to moving furniture.

However, the third row significantly reduces trunk volume, so with seven people regularly onboard, cargo space is very limited.

General Model Information

Familiarity and special features: The BMW 2 Series Gran Tourer is positioned as a compact family wagon/van. Compared to the smaller Active Tourer, it offers about 1.1 cu ft more trunk volume.

Typical features include variable seat arrangements, good build quality, and optional comfort features like an electric tailgate and partition net.

Particularities: The middle seatbelt attachment on the roof is inconveniently placed and must be awkwardly released to fully utilize the cargo space. The interior lighting in the trunk is not optimal.

Price-performance and competition: The Gran Tourer targets buyers who want premium brand appeal combined with everyday flexibility.

Competitors come from the compact van/compact MPV segment (e.g., Mercedes B-Class, VW Touran). The Gran Tourer offers a good mix of versatility and premium equipment but loses volume compared to larger family vans.
