Will VIMLE 3-seat sofa, with chaise longue/Gunnared beige 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 VIMLE box runs 145 by 78 by 47 cm and the set arrives in 6 separate packages, with the whole load weighing close to 100 kg. The 47 cm depth is the awkward part, you cannot stand most of the boxes upright. A large estate or an SUV with seats folded handles the volume; a hatchback rarely fits all 6 in one go. Load the longest box first along the boot floor, then stack the smaller cartons. Two people lift the heavy ones, the corners damage easily.
