About the VW Golf 2024 boot

The Golf is a practical hatchback boot: wide, low, and much longer once folded. The opening is 41″ wide × 30¾″ tall, and the floor runs 29⅞″ with the seats up, stretching to 58¼″ folded, a gain of 28⅜″. Even at its narrowest the floor holds 39¾″, so wide boxes sit flat without a fight. The sill is a friendly 26¾″ with only a 6¼″ drop, so loading is easy on your back. Seats up it is short, better for cases and shopping, seats down it takes longer flat-packs. Fold one side and slide long items along the wider floor.
