Trunk dimensions DS Automobiles DS 3 Crossback

The trunk of the DS 3 Crossback 2020 offers a volume of about 12.4 cu ft, which can be expanded up to 37.1 cu ft when the rear seats are folded down. The rear bench is split 60:40, allowing flexibility when transporting luggage. The interior design is modern and high-quality, focusing on comfort and style.

The trunk dimensions vary slightly within the model range, with the trunk shape considered practical to facilitate loading. The loading edge is relatively low, making access easier. Overall, the DS 3 Crossback offers a successful combination of aesthetics and functionality in the trunk.

Model Information

The DS 3 Crossback is a compact SUV from the French automaker DS Automobiles, first introduced in 2018. It combines elegant design with modern technologies and offers a variety of powertrain options, including electric variants.

The DS 3 Crossback is characterized by its distinctive front end, high-quality interior, and innovative features aimed at comfort and user-friendliness.

Variants of the Same Series

The DS 3 Crossback is positioned as a standalone model and has no direct variants such as sedan or convertible.

However, there are different trim levels within the model, including Base, Chic, Performance Line, and Ultra Prestige versions, which differ in terms of equipment and design. These variants should not be confused with other models in the DS range.

Yearly Differences

Since its introduction in 2018, there have been no significant changes to the body dimensions or trunk dimensions of the DS 3 Crossback. Minor updates in subsequent years focused mainly on technical improvements and the introduction of new equipment options, without affecting the vehicle's basic dimensions.

Direct Competitors

Direct competitors of the DS 3 Crossback include models such as the Mini Countryman, Audi Q2, and BMW X1. These vehicles offer similar sizes and price ranges, but the trunk volume varies significantly.

For example, the Mini Countryman has a trunk volume of about 15.9 cu ft, while the Audi Q2 offers around 14.3 cu ft. These differences can be decisive for buyers who value cargo space.

More Affordable Alternatives

More affordable alternatives with similar trunk dimensions include the Skoda Kamiq and the Dacia Duster. The Skoda Kamiq offers a trunk volume of about 14.1 cu ft, while the Dacia Duster provides around 16.9 cu ft.

These models are generally cheaper and still offer a good level of functionality and cargo space, making them attractive options for buyers seeking good value for money.

DS DS 3 Crossback trunk space volume — Trunk volume DS DS 3 Crossback

Trunk Volume

The DS 3 Crossback SUV 2019 has a trunk volume of 12.4 cu ft (manufacturer specification). This is about −16.67% smaller than an average car. Relative to the total vehicle volume (LxWxH/2), the trunk accounts for approximately 6.2%, which is −0.3 percentage points below average.

Practical consequence: 12.4 cu ft are sufficient for everyday use: groceries, two to three smaller to medium-sized suitcases, or several bags/backpacks. However, for very bulky or long items as well as larger moves, the volume is limited — those who regularly transport larger loads will notice restrictions.

Vehicle Size and Parking Friendliness

Dimensions: 162.2 in length, 70.5 in width, 60.2 in height.

Compared to the average car, the DS 3 Crossback is 17.3 in shorter (−9.7%), 2.4 in narrower (−3.2%), and 1.2 in lower (−1.9%).
Compared to a standard parking space, it is 34.6 in shorter and 28 in narrower, which facilitates parking and maneuvering.

Practical consequence: The compact dimensions make the vehicle especially city- and parking-friendly. Tight parking spots, narrow parking garages, and winding streets are easier to handle. The shorter length positively affects turning radius and parking situations.

Trunk Usability and Flexibility

The base volume of 12.4 cu ft sets a clear limit for the seat-to-cargo space balance. For everyday use, this means:

Good everyday suitability for shopping, suitcases for short trips, strollers in many cases (depending on model/packing size).
Limited capacity for bulky/heavy items; for regular transport of larger loads, bigger SUVs or wagons are more suitable.
The compact exterior shape improves accessibility in urban situations but may mean slightly less storage space inside compared to larger competitors.

General Model Information

Familiarity: The DS 3 Crossback is the compact premium SUV of the DS brand (PSA Group) targeting design-oriented buyers in the B-SUV segment.
Special Features: Compact premium design, city-friendly dimensions, and a distinctly stylish interior (brand positioning: upscale).
Characteristics: Smaller cargo area compared to segment average while maintaining compact exterior dimensions — good city maneuverability, limited cargo capacity.
Price-Performance Ratio: Positioned in the premium segment; buyers tend to pay for design, equipment, and brand image. Those needing a lot of cargo volume often find more space with similarly priced competitors.
Competitor Models: Competitors include other compact premium or lifestyle-oriented B-SUVs such as Mini Countryman, Audi Q2, Renault Captur, and Peugeot 2008 (each with different focuses on space and premium claims).
