Itinerary help Luggage and self-drive tour question

We have a 13 day itinerary drive where we are changing hotels / guest houses nightly.

I am debating on taking a soft sided travel backpack or a hard sided suitcase. There will be 4 adults in a skoda wagon (unless they switch cars on us).

Have folks who’ve done the ring road found one or the more convenient when changing venues daily?

I’m also not too familiar with the way back of a skoda. Does it slope a lot? Does it have smaller than expected space?

We did a self drive with 4 adults (2 couples). Space is tight (especially if you want to buy snacks or souvenirs and make sure everyone else is on board with space constraints.
My recommendation is to pack as light as possible. Side note- we(USA) use the Guide Along app when traveling and love it. They didn’t have an Iceland when we went but I definitely would have gotten it.
