How does the boot space of the VW Taigo compare to it's nearest competitors?

Now for the rival showdown. On paper, the Taigo trumps many of its competitors in the boot space department. The SsangYong Tivoli (395 liters) and Honda HR-V (393 liters) are well behind the Taigo, while the Hyundai Kona (361 liters) has been left in the dust. However, the boot space king is not without challengers - the Ford Puma inches ahead with a marginally larger 456 liters. But let's not forget, with the rear seats folded, the Taigo is a force to be reckoned with, offering a cavernous 1,281 liters which surpasses many of its adversaries.
