The Passat trunk has a height of 570mm, a minimum width of 1040mm, a maximum width of 1250mm, a regular depth of 1190mm, and a maximum depth of 2050mm. Trunk storage precautions: Do not fill the trunk completely for daily short-distance use; Do not use the trunk as a "storage room"; Do not leave or forget food in the trunk; It is best to use trunk mats made of synthetic fibers, cotton, or wool, and avoid heavy floor mats. A set of floor mats can weigh between 10 to 15 kilograms, which can affect fuel consumption. Do not place flammable or explosive items such as lighters or hairspray in the trunk, as the trunk is a more enclosed space. In hot weather and with road bumps, these items may explode. Functions of the trunk: The trunk is the area for storing spare items and transporting goods; It usually contains the car's spare tire, first aid kit, onboard tool kit, triangular warning sign, and fire extinguisher.

I've been driving the Passat as my daily commuter for over a year now. With an official trunk capacity of 561 liters, the space is truly generous. During weekend grocery runs, it easily accommodates five or six shopping bags while still leaving room for a stroller and outdoor gear. On our last family trip, we loaded three large suitcases, a big duffel bag, and some miscellaneous items without feeling cramped at all. The height design is well thought out, making it comfortable to load heavy items without excessive bending. The rear seats can be folded down, expanding the capacity to around 1,180 liters, which comes in handy for bulky items like bicycles or moving boxes. Overall, for family users or frequent travelers, this trunk size is incredibly hassle-free, unlike some compact cars that require constant rearranging.

I remember the Passat's trunk is around 561 liters, which is perfect for someone who loves road trips. Every time I pack before a trip, I can easily fit in three carry-on suitcases, two backpacks, and a bunch of picnic supplies—the depth and width are well-balanced. Compared to other midsize sedans like the Accord, the Passat offers more generous space, reducing packing anxiety for long journeys. If you need to carry family or pet belongings, the trunk design prevents items from shifting around. For daily use, the size may not be astonishing but is reliably sufficient, and with the rear seats folded down, it can even accommodate large furniture or outdoor gear.

The Passat's trunk capacity is marked at 561 liters, with a practical design. For someone like me who occasionally carries cargo, the depth is sufficient for tools or boxes, and the width makes it easy to stack items. When the rear seats are folded down, the space increases, allowing larger items to fit without issue—users sensitive to space will be satisfied. Simply put, while the dimensions aren't top-tier, they're more than adequate for daily use.
