Plan loading space correctly: dimensions alone are not enough
When it comes to a van, it's not just how big the cargo space is that counts. What is important is whether cargo, access, payload and doors suit everyday life.
Wheelbase, interior height, sliding door and rear door can determine whether a vehicle really works in operation.

Auto Bluhm is not based in Kiel, but in Hamburg-Moorfleet. For buyers from Kiel, the specialized stock can still be useful if several van variants are to be compared.
Describe the load first
Before looking for a vehicle, it should be clear what is regularly transported. Length, weight, sensitivity and access are crucial.
- Measure the longest load and typical packaging.
- Check weight and payload together.
- Choose side access or rear access consciously.
- Include shelves, partitions and loading floor in the planning.
Wheelbase, height and door concept
A long wheelbase provides space, but requires more space when maneuvering. A high roof helps in the cargo area, but can be annoying in narrow driveways.
| feature | advantage | border |
|---|---|---|
| long wheelbase | more loading space | less maneuverable |
| High roof | more interior height | Observe height restrictions |
| Sliding door | side access | Check door rails |
| Double doors | large opening at the back | Space required behind the vehicle |
Submit a request with a clear usage profile
When making an inquiry, you should state the load, weight, desired door solution and typical locations of use.
FAQ: Load space in the transporter
Both count. A lot of volume only helps if the weight is also permissible and practical to transport.
A sliding door helps with city traffic, tight loading zones and frequent side access.
It influences loading space, maneuverability, parking and operating locations.
The selection can be narrowed down more specifically with information about the load, weight and usage.
