Will the Bugaboo Fox 5 fit in a Volvo XC40?
Fits, shelf out
At least 10.4 cm to spare on every side. That's against the tailgate opening, so it assumes the parcel shelf is out: we don't have the height under the XC40's shelf yet.
Calculated from published measurements for the Volvo XC40 (2017 on, petrol and mild hybrid). Not yet tested in person.

Pram (one-piece self-standing fold): 45 × 60 × 90 cm. Boot: 88.7 cm deep, 100.4 cm wide between the wheel arches, 73.3 cm high.
Loading it
Fold the Bugaboo Fox 5 and lay it flat, longest side (90 cm) across the boot between the wheel arches, pushed back against the rear seats.
That leaves space beside it for a changing bag or a small shop.
Boots have curves, lips and sloping tailgates that a box measurement can't capture. Take the folded pram to the car, or the car to the shop, before you buy.
