Trunk dimensions Ford Ka+

The 2018 Ford Ka+ offers a trunk with a volume of about 9.5 cu ft, which can be expanded up to 30 cu ft by folding down the rear seats. The rear bench is split 60:40, allowing flexibility when transporting luggage.

The interior is functionally designed, with a high loading lip that makes access more difficult but supports practicality through a rectangular shape.

Trunk dimensions vary within the model range, with the compactness of the small car posing a challenge for larger items. Overall, the Ford Ka+ provides a solid, though limited, cargo space option for city driving.

Model Information

The Ford Ka+ is a small car characterized by its compact design and practical functionality. The latest series of the Ford Ka+ offers a combination of modern design, efficient fuel consumption, and a variety of features.

The car targets buyers seeking a reliable and economical vehicle for city driving and occasional longer trips. With a focus on user-friendliness and comfort, the Ford Ka+ is an attractive option in the small car segment.

Variants of the Same Series

The Ford Ka+ is offered in various variants, including the sedan and the hatchback. While the sedan offers a classic shape, the hatchback has a sportier silhouette.

It is important not to confuse these two variants, as they offer different characteristics and usage possibilities. The sedan is more focused on comfort and space, while the hatchback offers more flexibility in the trunk.

Yearly Differences

Changes to the body and trunk dimensions of the Ford Ka+ were made in the 2016 and 2020 model years. The 2016 version brought a design revision and a slight increase in trunk space.

In 2020, the model was updated again, leading to further adjustments in interior design and trunk configuration. These changes improved the vehicle's functionality and comfort.

Direct Competition

Compared to other small cars like the Opel Adam and Volkswagen Up!, the Ford Ka+ offers a similar price level and comparable size. The Opel Adam has a trunk volume of about 6 cu ft, while the Volkswagen Up! offers slightly more space with 8.9 cu ft.

The Ford Ka+ thus positions itself in the mid-range regarding trunk volume, offering a good balance between size and functionality.

More Affordable Alternatives

For buyers seeking more affordable alternatives with similar trunk dimensions, models like the Dacia Sandero and Kia Picanto are interesting. The Dacia Sandero offers a trunk volume of about 11.3 cu ft, making it an attractive option for buyers who want more cargo space.

The Kia Picanto, on the other hand, has a trunk volume of around 9 cu ft. Both models are generally cheaper than the Ford Ka+ while still providing reasonable transport options.

Trunk Volume

The 2018 Ford Ka+ has a rather small cargo compartment. Depending on the measurement method, figures range between 8.1 cu ft (manufacturer-independent, rear seats upright) and 9.9 cu ft (loaded up to the roof). The manufacturer states 9.5 cu ft. Compared to an average car, the volume is reduced by about -40.48%.

With the rear seats folded down, values vary greatly: up to the window sill, 525–20.3 cu ft are specified; roof-high, depending on the source, 849–33.9 cu ft.

Practically, this means: for everyday use (shopping, one to two suitcases), the trunk usually suffices; for larger loads, the rear seats can be folded down to transport significantly more.

Vehicle Size and Parking Friendliness

The Ka+ measures 155.9 in length, 68.5 in width, and 61 in height. Compared to the average car, it is 24 in shorter, 4.3 in narrower, and 0.4 in lower. Compared to a standard parking space, the vehicle is about 41.3 in shorter and 29.9 in narrower, making it very parking-friendly.

Practical consequence: tight inner-city parking spots and narrow driveway entrances are easier to navigate and use than with larger vehicles. For long-distance travelers, the short length means less interior space and limited cargo capacity in the trunk without folded seats.

Trunk Usability and Flexibility

The foldability of the rear seats is practical: asymmetrically split and quickly operated via a button on the backrest. Because the trunk floor is short, folding can also be easily done from the rear.

Everyday limitations and peculiarities:

The tailgate is relatively small and does not open very high. People up to about 1.85 m stand under the gate when opening it.
The prominently protruding trunk lock can cause painful contact with the head when handling the trunk.
The loading lip is 28.7 in above the road, and the distance from the loading lip to the trunk floor is 8.3 in – luggage often needs to be lifted strongly when loading and unloading.
The trunk lighting is weak, making loading in the dark difficult.
Positive: depending on the source, three beverage crates fit up to the roof; with folded seats, a very large loading volume is created (up to 849–33.9 cu ft roof-high).

Conclusion: The Ka+ is flexible for occasional large loads but somewhat cumbersome to load daily due to the short loading area, small hatch, and physical loading lip.

General Model Information

Familiarity: The Ford Ka+ is an affordable small car positioned as a practical city vehicle with simple equipment.

Special Features / Peculiarities: Very compact exterior dimensions for tight parking spaces, asymmetrically split rear seats with easy operation, but a small and not optimally accessible trunk with protruding lock and high loading lip.

Empty Weight / Payload: Empty weight 1055 kg, payload 455 kg – sufficient for occupants and normal luggage needs in everyday use.

Price-Performance Ratio: Primarily aimed at affordable purchase and low operating costs. Those primarily seeking an urban, cost-effective vehicle get a lot of car for little money but must make compromises in trunk space and comfort.

Competitor Models: Typical competitors are small cars like VW up!, Hyundai i10, Kia Picanto, Toyota Aygo, Peugeot 108, and similar city hatchbacks. Compared to many competitors, the Ka+ scores with very compact exterior dimensions, while some competitors lead in trunk comfort.
