About the VW Passat Variant 2024 boot
The Passat Variant is an estate, and its boot behaves like one. The opening is 41 3/8 inches wide by 31 1/8 inches tall, and the floor runs 44 1/2 inches with the seats up. Fold the rear bench and it stretches to 79 1/8 inches, a gain of 34 5/8 inches, which is where this car earns its keep. That long flat floor takes flat-pack boxes and long, low loads with ease, though the narrowest point is 39 3/4 inches, so very wide items still need care. The sill sits at 25 1/4 inches with a 3 1/2 inch drop, so slide heavy boxes rather than lift them.
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.
