Passat is A4 sized. If you want true load carrying capability you need to go mid-size. The Mondeo will be much better than the Passat.
In the boot of my E39 I’m currently driving around with a quick lift jack, 2 axle stands, 8 litre drain pan, 5L bottle of oil and 2L bottle of coolant, 2 tool boxes, a harness bar for my MX5, other various parts still needing to be fitted to the MX5, a mid sized pushchair, and a cycloc bike hanger. There’s still enough space in the boot to fit as much as you could in a hatchback’s boot, probably more, plus proper sized seats in the back.
Mid sized cars are bae if you truly want to be able to lug shit about.
