Cars With Big Boots

For many customers, the quest for practicality and versatility has consistently remained at the forefront. Among the countless features that define an ideal car, one aspect often overlooked but immensely valuable is its boot space. A car's ability to accommodate cargo, whether it be luggage for a road trip, groceries for the week, or gear for an outdoor adventure, is a critical consideration.

Do you often travel with big loads of luggage or use your car for the weekly family shop? Whatever your reason, boot space is valuable in cars. Therefore, when choosing your new car, it’s worth considering the boot space available. In this article, we’ve picked a selection of the best cars with big boots to meet your requirements.

• Peugeot 5008

• BMW X7

• Land Rover Discovery

• Mercedes-Benz GLE

• Skoda Kodiaq

• Citroen Berlingo Car

• Skoda Superb Estate

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate

First, with an extensive history dating back decades, the E-Class Estate has constantly embodied the company's commitment to excellence in both form and function. The Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate is a great offering, with 670 litres of boot space and handy fold-out hooks. In addition, it has the added bonus of a large under-floor storage area. We feel this estate car combines the class of a saloon with the extra space of an SUV. However, if you opt for a hybrid version such as the E300de, bear in mind that the hybrid battery reduces the luggage capacity.

As an alternative to the Audi A6 Avant, this premium estate car has a great engine line-up. In particular, the E220d diesel option proves especially popular as it’s not only economical, but it still offers plenty of power and performance for your drive. We think this Mercedes is an ideal family car as it’s practical, spacious and well-designed. Features such as the new steering wheel, ambient interior lighting and powerdomes on the bonnet as standard make this sportier looking than ever before.

Overall, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate combines the best of luxury, utility, and safety in a stylish package. It's a vehicle that caters to those who demand not only a refined driving experience but also the versatility to handle various aspects of their daily lives with ease and grace.

Peugeot 5008

The Peugeot 5008 is a seven-seater SUV, rivalling the likes of the Skoda Kodiaq. This seven-seater SUV is very similar to the Peugeot 3008 but with the addition of third row seating. In five seat mode, this Peugeot offers up to 952 litres of space, which then extends to 2,150 litres with all rear seats down. Although, typical of seven-seaters, it offers limited luggage room (162 litres) with all 7 seats in place.

Another notable aspect of the Peugeot 5008 is its captivating design. With a sleek and aerodynamic silhouette, coupled with bold and distinctive front-end styling, it manages to stand out in a crowded SUV segment. The well-crafted interior follows suit, showcasing high-quality materials, modern aesthetics, and a well-thought-out layout.

Also, the Peugeot 5008 has an array of driving and parking aids available, such as Park Assist and the Automatic Emergency Braking System. Although, not all features come as standard and it depends on the version you choose. Furthermore, there’s a good range of efficient PureTech petrol or BlueHDi diesel engines to choose from. In particular, the 1.5-litre BlueHDi diesel (manual) is the most fuel-efficient options with a rating of up to 60.8mpg combined.

BMW X7

At 6ft tall, 16.9ft long and 6.5ft wide, the BMW X7 is BMW’s biggest SUV in its model range. This practical and premium SUV takes design cues from the interior of the smaller BMW X5. With all seven seats in place, the BMW X7 still has a boot capacity of 326 litres. Meanwhile, with the second and third row of seats down, its 2,120 litres of boot space is incredible.

The BMW X7 isn’t short of luxury as high-quality materials have been used throughout. With plenty of safety kit on-board and BMW’s infotainment system, it’s easy to see why you would consider leasing the BMW X7. While its not the cheapest option on our list, we think the X7 is worth every penny and drives particularly well for its size. Specifically, the BMW X7 M60i xDrive can achieve a 0-62mph time of 4.7 seconds and has 750Nm of torque. 

In essence, the BMW X7 stands as a luxurious and commanding presence in the luxury SUV segment, catering to those who demand both style and substance. It seamlessly combines class, performance, and advanced technology, offering a truly exceptional driving experience.

Land Rover Discovery

The Land Rover Discovery is a favourite amongst SUV drivers looking for a seven-seater family car. The Discovery can tackle all terrains, has a braked towing capacity up to 3500kg and is excellent for both on and off-road driving. We feel this iconic Land Rover vehicle is extremely functional and appealing to drive. Both petrol and diesel engines are available and all come with an eight-speed automatic gearbox. 

Inside the Land Rover Discovery, there’s ample head room throughout and a high driving position, as well as plenty of smart storage compartments to optimise the space. With all seven-seater in place, the 258-litre boot is comparable to a supermini. However, with the second and third row of seats down, this SUV offers over 2,400 litres of boot space.

Overall, the Land Rover Discovery impresses with its intelligent storage solutions and design philosophy. It perfectly combines practicality and elegance, making it a compelling car for those needing a versatile and stylish SUV that's equally at home in the great outdoors. So, is it time to explore and enjoy adventures in this remarkable Land Rover SUV?

Mercedes-Benz GLE

Another large car with a big boot is the fantastic Mercedes-Benz GLE. Available as either a five or seven-seater, the Mercedes GLE is a premium SUV with great off-road capability. This Mercedes is sized between the Mercedes GLC and GLS models. The Mercedes GLE is available with a selection of engine options – petrol, diesel and plug-in hybrid. Specifically, the diesel engines are punchy, as well as returning a decent fuel economy.

Rivalling the Audi Q7, a Mercedes GLE lease offers a comfortable ride thanks to its spacious cabin. With the GLE design, t’s clear that Mercedes focused on comfort and style rather than sportiness. The 630-litre boot space is generous, although this is reduced to 490 litres for the plug-in hybrid 350de version. Plus, the cabin is meticulously crafted, using quality materials to create a refined atmosphere.

In summary, we feel the Mercedes-Benz GLE delivers on both practicality and aesthetics. Its clever storage solutions, luxurious interior, and striking design combine to create a premium SUV that elevates the driving experience.

Skoda Kodiaq

First launched roughly four years ago, the Skoda Kodiaq is known for being a large SUV with a massive boot space. Compared to the Peugeot 5008, this Skoda is both slightly longer and higher in height. Furthermore, the optional third row of seats in the Kodiaq is a real bonus if you require a seven-seater (standard from SE-L Executive trim). Over the years, the Skoda Kodiaq has been refined to keep it fresh and modern. As for safety, the Kodiaq has an array of safety assistance systems available, although not all come as standard.

In the five-seater model, the Kodiaq offers 835 litres of boot space with all seats up. Whereas, seven-seater versions have a somewhat smaller boot measuring 735 litres with five seats in place. With all seven seats in place, the Skoda Kodiaq still offers a reasonable boot capacity at 270 litres.

Citroen Berlingo Car

The Citroen Berlingo Multispace car is available in two bodystyles, the Berlingo M version carrying up to five people and the XL for up to seven people. This robust vehicle with a ceiling storage box is ideal for family adventures and offers everyday versatility. Although this isn't the most aesthetically pleasing car on our list, Citroen has certainly made up for this in other areas. 

At 1.1ft longer than the M version, let’s focus on the Berlingo XL. In terms of boot capacity, there’s 1,050 litres in XL versions, although the removable third row seats allow for even more room. Its van-like cabin makes it practical and versatile, ideal for those with an outdoorsy lifestyle. Furthermore, the Citroen Berlingo offers you optimal safety with an array of safety technologies available. Looking to switch to electric? The Citroen e-Berlingo is a fully electric version and has a maximum electric range of 174 miles.

Skoda Superb Estate

The Skoda Superb Estate’s main draw is its spacious boot space of 660 litres (seats up), expanding to 1,950-litres with rear seats down. This is a great choice for those looking for a car that offers versatility, practicality and a smooth drive. Furthermore, this Skoda comes well equipped as standard. The entry-level SE trim is priced from £28,305 (OTR) and standard features include drive mode selection, parking sensors, 17” Stratos alloy wheels and a virtual cockpit.

As an alternative to the Volvo V60 Estate, this Skoda has won various awards over the years. In particular, the Skoda Superb Estate 2.0 TDI 150 SE L was awarded What Car? Estate Car of The Year 2022, as it offers everything you'd expect from an estate car.
