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?
The Honda CR-V has 36.3 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats and 76.5 cubic feet (about 2166 liters) with the rear seats folded. The folded load floor is roughly 72 inches (183 cm) long.
01
What are the Honda CR-V liftgate opening dimensions?
The Honda CR-V liftgate opening is about 44 inches wide and 29 inches tall (112 x 74 cm). The opening, not the total volume, is what decides whether a wide or tall item can get in, so measure it first.
02
How long is the Honda CR-V load area with the rear seats folded?
About 72 inches, or 183 cm. Folding the rear seats raises usable volume to 76.5 cubic feet (about 2166 liters). Measure your longest item against this load length before you load.
03
Does the Honda CR-V cargo space change by model year?
Cargo figures vary slightly by generation and trim. A panoramic roof, a full-size spare, or a hybrid battery can each reduce usable volume by a few cubic feet. The figures here are typical for the current generation; check your exact year's spec sheet for a precise number.
