Folkvagnen was a disaster what comes to luggage, I hear one and another say. Some småväskor up in the ”Folkan”, which had the engine in the rear. And so a ”ditch” behind the rear seat, svårstuvat then it could only be reached from inside the cabin. The rest – and it was often much – ended up on the roof rack.

It got better during the later part of the 60’s, when bagageslukare as the Opel Rekord and the Volvo 144 proved that one could get with a much. With the 140/240 series was Volvo style for decades, as well as the Opel with the top Records and its successor.

Even the smaller Opel, Kadett, had a really spacious ”trunk”. The 71:a I once had swallowed everything.

When Alfa Romeo in 2006, completed his beautiful 159-series with the ”livsstilskombin” Sportwagon, hung out of the competition soon. Sportkombi became a concept for a car in which the load compartment space had to be back for the cheeky design.

With today’s plug-in hybrids, we see again how the boot will be disregarded, not of designskäl but because these cars must be able to fit with both the internal combustion engine, electric motor and batteries.

at the same time has a too sloping rear windscreen made of one of laståsnan Volvo V70’s successor: V90. Big as a house, yet an abomination to the taxi drivers who have the V70’s abruptly severed acts in recent memory when the V90-the box says from when the big things going into.

Certainly, in the margin, but have yet to mention our own little Mitsubishi CZC -07, a 388 centimeters short plåtcabriolet. Its skuff consume two bamsiga suitcases plus various bundled all around. One fly in the ointment just that during the trip down to the continental destination does not become speech if someone nedcabbning – cargo volume, the result is primarily intended for all the sheet metal to fold down when the weather so allows.
