The current model of the BYD Tang is a fine example of how to cram a decent amount of boot space into a modern vehicle. With 235 litres at your disposal, it's not winning any awards for pure volume but it's a versatile and pragmatic choice for people who aren't into flashy sports cars but need space for their weekly groceries.
There is only one generation of the BYD Tang, so there isn't any change in the trunk size to speak of. It would be interesting to see if the next iteration of this model will bring a significant increase in boot space capacity or if it will stick to its current configuration, as practicality knows no dimensions and is more of a state of mind.
When it comes to the fellow crossovers in the BYD lineup, the Tang falls at the lower end of the boot space spectrum. Yes, you've got a whole 235 litres, but compare it to the BYD Han with 410 litres, and the BYD Atto 3 with 440 litres, and it's easy to see that it's not the most voluminous sibling in the family. Still, some may argue that all this extra space just goes to show that the Tang is the minimalist, no-nonsense member of the clan.
Let's put things into perspective: when you compare it to some of its close competitors, like the Audi Q8 e-tron (569 litres), Hyundai IONIQ 5 (527 litres), and the Skoda Enyaq iV (570 litres), the BYD Tang's 235 litres of boot space may seem like it's falling short. However, when you consider the smaller rivals, such as the Nissan Leaf (394 litres) and the BMW i3 (260 litres), then suddenly the Tang appears to be holding its own. Ultimately, it comes down to what you truly value in a vehicle and how much importance you place on trunk size. If boot space isn't at the top of your priorities, the BYD Tang is still a stylish and versatile option. The numbers may not tell the whole story, but they paint a pretty accurate picture of how this crossover stacks up.
