Honda HR-V cargo space: how much room Sacramento drivers get
The 2026 Honda HR-V has two published cargo figures: one with the rear seats up and a larger one with them folded down. You can check both against your own gear at Capital City Honda, 3630 Fulton Ave, Sacramento.
Keep reading below, then schedule a test drive in Sacramento. Bringing your own numbers to the lot settles this faster than any spec sheet.
How many cubic feet of cargo space does the 2026 Honda HR-V have?
With the rear seats up, Honda publishes 24.4 cubic feet of cargo behind the second row. That is the space available when the rear seats are in use.
With the rear seats folded down, Honda’s published maximum cargo figure is 55.1 cubic feet. Honda’s 2026 specifications give both figures for the LX, Sport and EX-L trims, in front-wheel and all-wheel drive.
Cubic feet measure volume rather than shape. A bulky item can fit the number and still fail to fit through the opening. Measure its length, width and height as well as the total you carry.
What cargo space do the 2026 Honda HR-V trims give you?
The LX, Sport and EX-L share the same cargo rating. Each trim is published at 24.4 cubic feet behind the second row and 55.1 cubic feet with the seats folded.
The front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive versions match too. Both drivetrains show the same two figures for every trim.
Trim changes the starting price, not the cargo figures. If cargo room is the deciding factor, the trims do not separate on it.
How much more cargo room does the Honda CR-V have than the HR-V?
The CR-V has more cargo room than the HR-V on both measures Honda publishes. Honda’s published figures for both models, by trim, are these.
| Model and trim | Seats up (cu ft) | Seats folded (cu ft) |
|---|---|---|
| HR-V LX | 24.4 | 55.1 |
| HR-V Sport | 24.4 | 55.1 |
| HR-V EX-L | 24.4 | 55.1 |
| CR-V LX | 39.3 | 76.5 |
| CR-V EX | 39.3 | 76.5 |
| CR-V EX-L | 39.3 | 76.5 |
Honda’s published CR-V figure behind the second row is 39.3 cubic feet, against 24.4 for the HR-V. With the seats folded, the CR-V is published at 76.5 cubic feet, against 55.1 for the HR-V.
A buyer who needs more room than the HR-V gives can look at the CR-V in the same Honda lineup. Capital City Honda sells both, so the two can be measured against the same gear on the same visit.
What other cargo and interior measurements does Honda publish for the HR-V?
Honda publishes 41.9 inches of first-row legroom and 37.7 inches of second-row legroom for the 2026 HR-V. These figures apply to the LX, Sport and EX-L trims, in both drivetrains.
Seating is five across those trims. Second-row legroom is the figure to check if passengers will ride behind the front seats for long trips.
The cargo measurements are the same 24.4 and 55.1 cubic feet, so the interior numbers and the cargo numbers can be read together.
How do you test the HR-V cargo area with your own gear at Capital City Honda?
Measure the gear you carry first, then book a test drive online or by phone at Capital City Honda, 3630 Fulton Ave, Sacramento, CA 95821.
Honda’s figures give the volume. Your own measurements show whether the shape fits. Write down the length, width and height of your largest item, then compare them with the opening of the rear hatch and the floor with the seats folded.
