VW Touran Camper boot size

It’s a bit smaller Sharan – easier to park, but less space inside, the rest is about the same. If you want a smaller (and a bit cheaper) car with VW interior & engine standards, good safety rating and good consumption that you can still sleep in, the Touran might just be it. If you don’t mind the interior as much, you’re better off looking at Berlingo, Caddy or similar cars.

This car’s boot is 179 cm long ⤢, 94 cm tall ↕, and 105 cm wide ↔.
