Car Hire Luggage Space

Car Hire Luggage Space is an important aspect people take in consideration when hire a car. When it comes to hiring a car one thing we find is that people are often unsure of the type of car suitable for them. This is largely down to the amount of luggage that you have, your hired car may be unfamiliar to you especially if you aren’t a keen follower of cars. We are here to help advice you and below you can find some information on what cars would be suitable for the amount of luggage that you have.

2 Suitcases –
Ford Ka or similar: Anything in this range will be fine for around 2 suitcases possibly more if you don’t have the full passenger capacity however the boots on these MINI group cars tend to be very small so if you want to have a comfortable time, no more than 2.

3 Suitcases –
Vauxhall Corsa or similar: The economy group cars are slightly larger than the mini with an average estimated space enough for 3 suitcases, the boots are larger than that of a mini but they are still below average size.

4-5 Suitcases –
Skoda Octavia or similar: Even larger is the standard/intermediate vehicle which can carry between 4 and 5 suitcases as they have an average sized boot. It’s suggested for 4-5 suitcases however I think you could fit 6 in at a push without much of an issue.

5-7 Suitcase –
Volkswagen Passat Estate or similar: Estates are specifically designed to in order to fit a large amount of suitcases with a large boot being the edition to a standard car. Estates are great for family of 5s with a large amount of luggage.

7 + Suitcase –
There are a variety of different vehicles which you would benefit from depending, there are 5+2 seaters available which are slightly smaller in space than your standard 7 seaters and after that if required there are vans and even 14-17 seater vehicles which fit a very large amount of luggage.
