About the VW Polo 2021 boot
The Polo 2021 has the tightest boot in this catalogue. The opening measures 92 cm wide by just 69 cm tall, the floor runs 66 cm with the seats up and stretches to 138 cm folded, and the width sits a usefully wide 102 cm. The sill is 70 cm with an 8 cm drop. This boot handles weekly shopping and small flat packs comfortably, but the 69 cm aperture is the choke point: anything taller than that needs to go in flat or not at all. For longer loads, fold the bench early and check the pack widths before you leave.
About the VIHALS Sideboard, dark grey, 140x37x75 cm package
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.
On pickup day
On pickup day with the Polo, the 156 cm sideboard box does not clear the 92 cm tailgate opening, even at a diagonal. You are 43.4 cm short with the seats up. Folding the rear bench extends the floor to 138 cm, which closes the gap to 7 cm but still leaves you short on diagonal width. This box will not go in without forcing it. Borrow a small van or arrange home delivery. If you must try, measure your exact opening first, both diagonals, before you drive over.
