About the Citroen C3 2023 boot
The C3 gives you a small supermini boot suited to shopping and soft bags rather than long flat-pack. The opening measures 88 cm wide by 79 cm tall, and the floor runs only 67 cm deep with the seats up. Fold the rear bench and it reaches 136 cm, a healthy gain of 69 cm, while the floor stays a fairly narrow 96 cm. Tall and compact boxes load easily; long panels struggle against that short floor. Watch the 78 cm loading sill with a 23 cm drop to the floor, so you lift over the lip, then down into the well.
About the HOVET Mirror, aluminium, 78x196 cm package
The HOVET mirror ships in one flat-pack box, 204 cm long, 85 cm wide and 7 cm thick. Glass is the real concern here, the 15.1 kg weight is light but the panel is fragile and any flex during a turn can crack the surface. The 85 cm width is wider than most flat-pack panels, so even cars that fit the length can struggle on the diagonal. An estate or a tall hatch with seats folded fits it best. Lay it flat on a blanket, never on edge, and brace it against the back of the rear seats.
