WillKALLAX Shelving unit, white, 182x182 cmfit in aVolvo XC40 2023?

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.

The largest KALLAX box is 187 by 41 by 8 cm, and the unit ships across 4 flat packs totalling 56.8 kg. The 187 cm length is what most cars trip on, the 41 cm width is friendly. An estate with rear seats folded, a hatchback with the bench dropped, or any SUV usually fits the long boxes; sedans rarely will. Load the long packs first along the floor, stack the smaller boxes on top. Two people make the lift safer, and a blanket under the stack stops the laminate scuffing on the boot floor.
