Which car boots are the best for prams? | Finding your perfect boot space and boot liner

 

When starting a family, there are various considerations that need to be taken. However, one factor that may be overlooked is how you are going to travel places with the number of items you will need, including prams. If you are starting a family and have found yourself with a car too small, it might be time for an upgrade.

In this guide, we highlight some of the best cars with substantial boot spaces for prams, and discuss how a custom boot liner can protect your interior space as well as your stroller or pushchair.

1. Audi A3 Sportback (2013+)

Audi A3 Sportback Boot with Bootliner  

The Audi A3 Sportback has been a family favourite for many years, and was even voted ‘Family Car of the Year’ in 2013.

What is the boot size of the Audi A3?

The Audi A3 offers a 380-litre boot that can be expanded to 1,220 litres when the rear seats are folded down. This means the Audi A3 Sportback can fit most normal-sized prams with relative ease.

Can you easily fit a pram in an Audi A3 Sportback?

As the Audi A3’s boot is a standard rectangular shape with a small lip, there won’t be much awkward manoeuvring. If you have a particularly large pram, you will likely need to push the back seats down.

If you are concerned about protecting your car seats, our car boot liners can be combined with a rear seat flap that protects the top of the seats from scuffs and dirt.

What are the benefits of using a custom boot liner?

The best way to keep both your pram and car’s interior space in pristine condition is to use a Hatchbag custom boot liner that will be designed specifically for your car make and model.

This level of protection means your boot stays clean from any mess and free from scuffs and scratches even after years of use.

Although there are other boot liners and mats available, these are often offered as a generic fit or a “one size fits all.” Yet, this is seldom the case. To add protection for your boot and the items stored inside, such as prams, at Hatchbag, our custom boot liners are designed to keep your cargo as fresh and clean as possible. We also provide our boot liners in a variety of colours to best suit your vehicle and preferences.
