About the Volvo XC40 2023 boot

The XC40 boot is an upright, square space rather than a long one. Seats up, you get 91 cm of floor behind an opening 106 cm wide and 73 cm tall, so wide boxes slide in but long ones stall. Its best trait is the fold: drop the rear bench and the floor stretches to 168 cm, a gain of 77 cm. The floor narrows to 101 cm at its narrowest, so tall flat boxes suit it better than very wide loads. The sill sits at 75 cm with no drop to the floor, so you push loads straight in at sill height instead of lifting over a lip.

About the BILLY Bookcase, white, 40x28x202 cm package

The narrow BILLY ships as one flat-pack box, 207 cm long, 39 cm wide and just 6 cm thick. The length is what limits you: 2.07 metres clears most estate boots with seats folded and many SUVs, but a typical hatchback opening will not let it through diagonally. At 24.3 kg one strong adult can manage the lift. Slide it in through the boot first, narrow edge leading, and keep the panel flat on the floor. Protect the bottom corner with cardboard, the white laminate marks easily on rough boot lips.
