Ford Puma’s boot looks smaller than rivals’

You state that the Puma has the best boot space, but this isn’t the case when you look at the dimensions of each model.you state the following boot sizes: Puma 401-1161 litres, Juke 422-1305 litres and T-roc 445-1290 litres. Doesn’t this mean the Puma has the smallest boot of the three?

It does look like the Puma has the smallest boot capacity when you only look at the official capacities, which we’ve stated in the group test. However, the Puma has some extra space that isn’t taken into account with the boot floor in the standard position.

It has an adjustable boot floor that can be taken out or clipped against the back of the rear seats to reveal a large compartment that’s big enough to swallow two suitcases. This enabled our testers to fit eight suitcases into the Puma – two more than the Juke – and it’s the reason why it’s rated as having the best boot space.

The T-roc also has a heightadjustable boot floor, which can be moved downwards to enable the boot to accommodate seven suitcases. The Juke’s boot is bigger than that of the previous model, but it doesn’t have an adjustable boot floor, so it can accommodate only six cases and overall has less capacity than the Puma and T-roc. citizensadvice.org.uk gov.uk/check-mot-status

I’ve been reading your group test of the new Ford Puma versus the Nissan Juke and Volkswagen T-roc. I’m interested in the test because I drive an older Juke and am wondering whether to replace it with the latest model or with a rival. I’ve read elsewhere that the new Juke’s boot is about 40% bigger than my car’s, so I was surprised at the results of your article. Get all the advice you need at whatcar.com/advice.
