Hi, new here. We're intending to buy a karoq in the next couple of months. We have no dealers near where we live hence the question.....
When we buy, it will mean a journey there and back so we'll need to be set up on the day to accommodate our border collie (he will have to come with us) in the boot.

So my question is for recommendations for crates which fit that you could perhaps buy off amazon etc? It's hard to match up the dimensions of a crate with the internal dimensions of the karoq. I guess it'll have to be slanted. Currently we have an estate so space for a crate is not an issue.

Has anyone got any suggestions for a medium dog so half the boot space is usable for luggage etc? I've seen the DT boxes and the travall or guardsman dividers.

Much appreciated

This website https://dtboxes.co.uk/collections/all/s ... esr6280077

gives details of crates to fit the Karoq with either a lowered boot floor or a raised boot floor. Perhaps their dimensions will help you choose one to fit?

Cripes! Swanky, but not cheap.

Our dogs would have to forego their pocket money for a while.

Very true... but the measurements they quote may help you find a cheaper alternative??

Thanks, yes I'll check their measurements.

What does raised/lowered boot floor mean? I've not seen that in any if my many searches, nor did the salesman mention this feature in a karoq

Thank you

Depending on which spare wheel you have (if any) the boot floor can be mounted in a high position (level with the lock etc) or lower down to give more boot space.
