Will VIHALS Sideboard, dark grey, 140x37x75 cm fit in a BMW X1 2024?

The X1 gives you a compact SUV boot with a fairly wide mouth, 107 cm across and 72 cm tall, but a short floor of 90 cm with the rear seats up. Fold them and it stretches to 164 cm, a gain of 74 cm, which is where this boot earns its keep. It takes medium boxes and multi-package loads well, though the longest flat-packs, the two-metre wardrobe frames and bed rails, will not clear whether the seats are up or folded. The floor narrows to 101 cm at the back, so load the widest item first. The lip sits 71 cm up with only a 3 cm drop to the floor, so expect a high lift then a flat slide.

The largest VIHALS package runs 156 by 39 by 8 cm, with two boxes adding up to 50.4 kg. The length is the awkward bit, the box itself is flat and rigid. A hatchback with rear seats folded, a small estate, or any SUV will take it; a sedan boot rarely will. Load the long box first along the floor, then slot the second package on top. The 50 kg total wants two people lifting, especially over a high sill. Corners scuff fast on flat-pack veneer, lay a blanket under the boxes.
