Russians, for the most part, are rational and economic people. For this reason, choosing a car, the future owner, in addition to the technical characteristics of the car, is usually interested in the capacity of the trunk, the ability of the cabin to transform, the presence of roof rails. It is not a secret for anyone that a car in Russia often has to be exploited for purposes other than its intended purpose:
- To bring to the dacha or somewhere dimensional (and not very) materials for building or repair, the harvest and a lot of other things;
- When changing housing - the trunk and cabin will inevitably be involved in the move;
- Purchase of furniture, household appliances, etc.
- A trip to the resort with the whole family - even the largest trunk will be full (especially if there are more than one children).
There is, of course, the category of car owners who will never load a bag of potatoes into the trunk of their Porsche, but there are very few of them, and among them many will prefer to transport the cargo themselves if it fits in the car. In any case, it is much more rational than paying for cargo taxi services.
Our review is devoted to cars that have not only the best capacity of the trunk, but also have the ability to transport oversized cargo in the cabin or on the roof (when using the trunk or the closed luggage box). The rating was made not only on the basis of the characteristics of cars - special attention was paid to feedback from owners who have practical experience in transporting various goods on cars of certain brands.
Largest luggage compartment: SUVs and crossovers
These cars, which themselves are large and roomy, have outstanding (compared to cars of other classes) possibilities for the transport of goods. The popularity of SUVs in the domestic market has always been high due to various reasons. Large and spacious trunk - one of them, and not the latest. Crossovers are more elegant and similar to passenger cars. Their size is a bit more modest, but, nevertheless, the capacity of the luggage compartment is impressive. The choice of cars in this category was carried out exclusively from among those models that can be bought in domestic car dealerships.

A country: South Korea
Average price: 2 069 000 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.3
This roomy SUV has three rows of seats and is adapted for transporting a large enough family. At the same time, the luggage compartment volume is only 176 liters, which is very small for such a large-sized car and our rating. But there is one caveat - the third row of seats, on which adults have nothing to do in this car, can be neatly folded up and turned into the boot floor with a volume already in 634 liters.This is a fairly spacious space, and given the wide rear door, access to it is extremely convenient and allows you to load payload on an area of 112 X 105 cm in size almost to the ceiling itself.
In order to transport something large (a refrigerator, etc.), the second row also folds easily and the space from the luggage door to the front seat backs gets a length of 193 cm. If the car is equipped with roof rails, this simplifies the transportation of skis, bicycles, boards for surfing and even a sports canoe - just install a special attachment. On the roof, you can mount and additional plastic box for things, indispensable for long journeys with a full passenger load (7 people, including the driver).
4 CHEVROLET CAPTIVA
A country: USA (going to Russia)
Average price: 1 355 000 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.3
Practical crossover with high ground clearance has a fairly roomy trunk - 477 liters. This space is enough to put hand luggage of all passengers and go on a long trip for business or pleasure. If passengers are not expected, and you just need to carry bulk cargo, the back row is folded and the trunk increases its space to 942 liters. If it is necessary to transport even more things, the front-row passenger seat can also be folded down, which will provide a useful load of 1,577 liters.
An additional luggage box made of plastic is installed on the rails without any problems, which will definitely not be superfluous on a long trip. Fans of outdoor activities with the help of special clamps will also be able to secure their bikes or skis on the roof. The roof rack will allow the owner to independently deliver oversized building materials from the store or, say, a new carpet.
3 TOYOTA VENZA
A country: Japan (going to the USA)
Average price: 2 399 000 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.6
Possessing a special design, the Venza is an attractive big car that stands out in the general stream of cars. Calculated initially on the North American market, the car hit the Russian open spaces due to the unpredictability of marketing surveys, and did not lose. Despite the fact that it is still a crossover, it has sufficient permeability to boldly go off-road fishing (hunting) or summer cottage. On such trips and reveals all the advantages of a large trunk. Its volume in the normal state is 975 liters and can accommodate a huge variety of different cargo.
Lowering the back of the spacious rear row of seats, the net volume is easy to increase up to 2000 liters. This allows not only to comfortably spend the night on a camping trip, but also to transport such a bulky item as a refrigerator or stove. It is possible to further increase the amount of payload with the help of a roof box with a capacity from 320 to 470 liters.
2 FORD EXPLORER
A country: USA (going to Russia)
Average price: 2 399 000 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.8
By folding the two rows of rear seats, the owner will receive a car with a trunk, the volume of which is 2,313 liters. In this case, the third row is formed without your participation - just press the button and the servos will do the necessary work. However, no one wants to give such a modern car for the delivery of various trash to the cottage or bricks for its construction.
It is more suitable for family trips, group trips out of town, fishing or hunting - there is enough space for everyone and there will be where to put luggage - with an active third row (by the way, not enough young adults are guaranteed a comfortable fit), the luggage space is 595 liters.
1 AUDI Q7
A country: Germany (going to Slovakia)
Average price: 4,443,000 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.9
The model is a recognized leader in the presence of the most advanced security systems and auxiliary electronics, and the popularity of the brand and design are a characteristic addition to the image of the owner, emphasizing its modernity and enterprise. In addition, the size of the luggage compartment in the five-seater cabin is 890 liters, which makes it quite comfortable to put things for all passengers. On 3 rows of seats can accommodate not only children, but also adults with an increase of no more than 160 cm. In this case, the trunk will be much smaller, and installing an additional luggage case on the roof of the car would be appropriate.
When the need arises to transport large loads, the folded backrests of 2 rows of seats open up access to the useful volume increased by more than 1,100 liters. The back opening without effort will allow to load such large objects as the refrigerator, an armchair and even a small sofa.
Largest luggage compartment: sedans
This is the most popular and common category of cars in our country. Sedans are best suited not only for daily trips on current affairs. In Russia, on this occasion, we can recall the old proverb: “He is a Swedish, a reaper, and a igrets on a dude”. Similarly, sedans in the hands of Russians are ready to carry out all the tasks facing their owners - to transport the harvest from the dacha, to take the old sofa and other unnecessary things out of the apartment, to help a friend with the move, etc. Below you will find a selection of ranking sedans with the largest boot.
3 LADA GRANTA
A country: Russia
Average price: 369 900 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.4
Domestic car can offer its owner a luggage compartment with a volume of 480 liters. A large trunk lid provides convenient access to the entire useful volume, allowing you to load the car as much as possible. This is especially true for long trips to rest, but may not be quite enough, especially in the presence of children.
In this case, the roof rack and the plastic box installed on it will fit, where light but voluminous things fit perfectly. When transporting various goods, the driver is enough to fold the second row seats. And if you remove the lower part of the back sofa (it is removed very easily), the backs form a flat surface with a large area with the boot floor.
2 RENAULT LOGAN
A country: France (going to Russia)
Average price: 534 000 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.6
The car is in demand in the domestic market, attracting its reliability, internal space with features of austerity, a large luggage compartment and the best price. Despite the external, rather modest (visually) dimensions, the Logan's trunk holds 510 liters. A convenient large opening of the luggage compartment allows full use of its space for transporting oversized cargo (disassembled furniture, etc.).
The tilted back of the back row increases the usable volume, while the flat plane formed (without thresholds) has a slight rise in the direction of travel, making loading and fixing the luggage most comfortable and safe. Having installed a trunk on the roof, you can safely take bicycles, surfboards and other oversized things for a trip, which cannot be accommodated inside. For long journeys, on the guides it is possible to install a luggage box, which will allow you to take with you much more necessary things.
1 PEUGEOT 408
A country: France
Average price: 909 000 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.8
Solid and impressive, Peugeot 408 offers the most spacious trunk among sedans - 560 liters! For the European market, the car is the undisputed leader in this indicator. A lot of things can fit in a huge trunk - ranging from a whole armada of bags with family members' belongings, gathered to set off on a long journey and ending with a country harvest or building materials.
The backs of the rear seats fold easily, slightly reducing the opening between the passenger compartment and the luggage compartment.The refrigerator, of course, will not enter here, but this makes it convenient to transport not only long oversized cargo (curtain rods, boards, pipes, etc.), but also many other things that the owner needs to deliver to the right place.
The largest luggage compartment: wagons
Cars in this category are the most practical vehicles, not inferior in comfort to conventional sedans. The peculiarity of the cabin allows you to use its volume with the maximum benefit - in the station wagon you can not only go on vacation, but it is also very beneficial for the owner to transport various cargoes without resorting to outside help.

Rating (2019): 4.9
This car of the popular German brand is not only one of the fastest station wagons (in order to accelerate to a speed of 100 km / h, it will need only 8.1 seconds). This stylish car also has a distinctive feature - an impressive size trunk volume of 650 liters. Not all crossovers can boast such spaciousness. Folded rear seats increase the depth of the luggage compartment - it turns out a little over two meters. At the same time, the volume increases by more than 2.5 times and is already 1,780 liters!
The Passat Variant is the ideal vehicle for travel and family travel. A country walk or a fishing trip can be multi-day, but not burdensome - it will be very comfortable to spend the night in a transformed cabin for two adults. Also, if desired, you can order the installation of a tow bar with an electric ejector - this will allow you to tow a cargo trailer or even a small boat for boat trips.
1 MERCEDES-BENZ E 220 D 4MATIC
A country: Germany
Average price: 3 800 000 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9
Mercedes itself is a car – benchmark, embodying all the best that is in the automotive industry. Having a rich complete set and stylish appearance, the versatile person offers the owner 695 liters of free volume. On long trips to rest, in the trunk fit all the necessary things, even a large family with three children.
MERCEDES-BENZ in the station wagon body not only emphasizes the status and style of the owner - it is quite a practical machine that can surprise with its spaciousness. The rear row of seats folds flat with the boot floor, resulting in just a huge loading area with convenient access from three sides.
The largest luggage compartment: Chinese cars
Chinese cars are still perceived as a separate branch of evolution in the automotive world, and even the active growth of sales in the Russian market has not yet been able to reverse this attitude. Nevertheless, among a large number of Chinese models, there are several that have interesting (from the point of view of our review) trunk parameters. These best models are presented in our special category.
2 CHERY BONUS 3
A country: China
Average price: 485 900 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.2
The volume of carry-on baggage that can be carried in the trunk of this car is 508 liters, and the permissible load must not exceed 370 kg.These data allow us to confidently say that the BONUS 3 has the largest trunk of all Chinese sedans.
The back of the back row can be easily reclined in a horizontal position, prolonging the amount of luggage to the front seats. This allows you to comfortably carry loads with oversized length. Despite the fact that the arch behind the rear seats is quite spacious, the folded backs form a high step, preventing the uniform and reliable stacking of long materials. This is not very convenient, especially if you need to transport boards, sheet material, etc.
1 HOWER H5

Rating (2019): 4.5
The car is the best representative of the Chinese automotive industry, and according to its characteristics, the level of quality of materials and assembly is a ruthless competitor for more expensive brands. Off-road "Hover" has an impressive luggage compartment - 810 liters, which our compatriots are happy to use for its intended purpose (and not very).
Folding the seat for the rear passengers, you can transport 4 interior doors, 200 pieces of red brick (will fit even more, but very strong overload), a slightly disassembled snowmobile (without a front ski) and a powerful motor-cultivator. With the help of the trunk mounted on the rails, it is easy to carry oversized cargo. Thus, one owner placed 16 packages of siding length under 4 meters on the roof and safely brought them to their destination.
