| Rear seats folded | 68"173 cm | 38"97 cm | 16"41 cm | 43 cu ft1218 L |

Figures are typical for the current generation and vary slightly by trim and model year. The trunk opening is the limiting dimension for wide or tall items, so measure it before the volume.
What fits
What fits in the Kia K5 trunk?
Measure smart
What to measure.
Four numbers decide nearly every fit check. Get these right and the rest follows.
- 01The trunk 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 trunk opening is narrower than the item.
- ⚠Measuring the cargo floor but forgetting the roofline tapers toward the trunk 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.
How big is the Kia K5 trunk?
The Kia K5 trunk holds 15.6 cubic feet (about 442 liters). With the rear seats folded, the load length extends to roughly 68 inches (173 cm) for longer items.
01What are the Kia K5 trunk opening dimensions?
We do not have a measured trunk aperture for the Kia K5. Estimated from the load floor it is in the region of 38 inches wide and 16 inches tall (97 x 41 cm), but treat that as a starting point rather than a spec. The opening, not the total volume, is what decides whether a wide or tall item can get in, so measure your own car at the narrowest point before you commit.
02How long is the Kia K5 load area with the rear seats folded?
About 68 inches, or 173 cm. Folding the rear seats raises usable volume to 43 cubic feet (about 1218 liters). Measure your longest item against this load length before you load.
03Does the Kia K5 trunk 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.
