How big is a Volvo V70 boot?
If every seat is occupied, your boot space stays at 575 litres.
This is just slightly bigger than the Škoda Fabia Estate boot (530 litres), but significantly smaller than the Citroën Berlingo XL boot (1,050 litres).
When the rear seats are folded down the boot capacity increases to 1,600 litres, which is a few hundred litres less than the Mercedes-Benz E-Class estate, though the V70's near vertical tailgate and wide opening is still very useful.
Taking practicality up a notch, the boot floor boasts aluminium rails and movable anchor points, while multifunctional rails, dividers and straps prevent luggage and loads from sliding around.
There's also a large lockable stowage area under the boot floor – perfect for storing your valuables.
How many seats in a Volvo V70?
The flexibility of the Volvo V70 means it can seat five people with ample boot space, or two people with even more boot space.
The backseat offers plenty of room for passengers, guaranteeing ample leg and headroom for both children and adults.
Opt for the family pack and two of the Volvo V70 seats can even be turned into occasional booster seats.
If you’re seeking something big and reliable, the Volvo V70 should serve you well. If you want something even bigger, consider the Volvo V90.
