About the Mazda CX-5 2023 boot

The CX-5's cargo opening measures 41¾″ wide by 31⅛″ tall, with 37¾″ of floor behind it when the seats are up. Fold the bench and the floor stretches to 66⅞″, a gain of 29⅛″, which is what makes longer loads possible at all. The floor holds 41⅜″ at its narrowest, so wide flat boxes lie level instead of wedging. Short, boxy loads fit fine seats up; anything long depends entirely on folding. The liftover sits at 29⅞″ with a 2″ drop to the floor, so lift heavier boxes clear of the sill rather than dragging them across it.

About the KALLAX Shelf unit, white, 43 7/8x57 5/8 " package

The KALLAX shelf unit arrives as two packages, and the larger one measures 56½″ long, 16″ wide and 5″ thick. That length is what decides the car. The whole order weighs 95 lb 3 oz, so it is a two-person lift even though the boxes look thin. Flat-pack board has no give, so you cannot bend it around a wheel arch or a seat back. An estate or an SUV with the rear bench down handles it comfortably. Load the long box first, on its edge and angled towards the far corner, then slide the second one alongside.
