What is the trunk width of the BMW X3?
2 Answers
The maximum depth of the BMW X3 trunk is 1750mm, the minimum depth is 925mm, the width is 1100mm, and the height is 780mm. Function of the trunk: Whether it's a sedan or a hatchback, there is a certain amount of space at the rear of the car. The primary purpose of this area is to absorb and buffer some of the collision energy in the event of a rear-end collision. This function is particularly significant in minor to medium accidents, as it helps to release and mitigate the impact force, thereby reducing or minimizing passenger injuries and fatalities. Introduction to the trunk: The trunk typically contains the car's spare tire, emergency kit, onboard tool kit, warning triangle, fire extinguisher, car refrigerator, and the emergency release cable for the fuel tank cap. In some high-end models, the starter battery is also located in the trunk.
This is a question I often get asked. After driving a BMW X3 for five years, I measured the trunk width to be approximately 110 to 115 centimeters, depending on the model year—newer models tend to be slightly wider. It’s incredibly convenient for daily use. Last weekend, I went camping in the suburbs and easily fit two large folding tables and two tent bags inside without any crowding in terms of width. The design features a flat trunk entrance, making it effortless to load heavy items, and it can even accommodate golf bags or large suitcases side by side. Folding down the rear seats increases the depth, but the width remains mostly fixed, which is very practical when moving. I recommend new owners check the manual for exact dimensions to avoid oversized items getting stuck. Overall, it’s highly practical, ideal for frequent travelers or outdoor enthusiasts, as the combination of width and depth doubles loading efficiency.
