Measurements
Honda CR-V cargo space dimensions.
| Length | Width | Height | Volume | |
|---|---|---|---|---|

Figures are for the 6th generation, U.S. market, 2023+ model years. Cargo height is an estimate. The liftgate opening size is an estimate. The liftgate opening is the limiting dimension for wide or tall items, so measure it before the volume.
Measure smart
What to measure.
Four numbers decide nearly every fit check. Get these right and the rest follows.
- 01The liftgate opening width and height, not the total volume, since the opening is what an item has to pass through.
- 02The load-floor length behind the rear seats, then again with the seats folded.
- 03The height available under the parcel shelf or roofline, measured at the lowest point.
- 04Your item at its widest point, including feet, handles, and packaging.
Don't make these
Common mistakes.
Most “it didn't fit” stories trace back to one of these oversights.
- ⚠Reading the cubic-foot figure and assuming a wide item will fit, when the liftgate opening is narrower than the item.
- ⚠Measuring the cargo floor but forgetting the roofline tapers toward the liftgate opening.
- ⚠Ignoring that a full-size spare, subwoofer, or hybrid battery eats into the quoted volume.
- ⚠Planning around seats-folded length while leaving a passenger seat up.
Frequently asked
Questions we keep getting.
What is the cargo space of a Honda CR-V?
For the 6th generation, U.S. market, 2023+ model years, the Honda CR-V has 39.3 cubic feet of cargo space with all seats upright and 76.5 cubic feet (about 2166 liters) with the 2nd row folded. That load floor is roughly 70 inches (178 cm) long, an approximate figure.
01What are the Honda CR-V liftgate opening dimensions?
We don't have a published liftgate aperture for the Honda CR-V. Our catalog estimates it at about 42 inches wide and 38 inches tall (107 x 97 cm), but treat that as a starting point rather than a spec. The opening, not the total volume, decides whether a wide or tall item can get in, so measure your own at the narrowest point.
02How long is the Honda CR-V load area with the 2nd row folded?
About 70 inches, or 178 cm, an approximate figure. The published volume for that layout is 76.5 cubic feet (about 2166 liters). Measure your longest item against this load length before you load.
03Does the Honda CR-V cargo space change by model year?
The figures here are for the 6th generation, U.S. market, 2023+ model years, checked against 2024 model-year sources. Earlier generations have different cargo areas, so measure your own if you have an older model.
