Measure smart

What to measure.

Four numbers decide nearly every fit check. Get these right and the rest follows.

  1. 01The liftgate opening width and height, not the total volume, since the opening is what an item has to pass through.
  2. 02The load-floor length behind the rear seats, then again with the seats folded.
  3. 03The height available under the parcel shelf or roofline, measured at the lowest point.
  4. 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.

  1. ⚠Reading the cubic-foot figure and assuming a wide item will fit, when the liftgate opening is narrower than the item.
  2. ⚠Measuring the cargo floor but forgetting the roofline tapers toward the liftgate opening.
  3. ⚠Ignoring that a full-size spare, subwoofer, or hybrid battery eats into the quoted volume.
  4. ⚠Planning around seats-folded length while leaving a passenger seat up.

Frequently asked

Questions we keep getting.

  • What is the cargo space of a Toyota 4Runner?

    The Toyota 4Runner has 47.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats and 89.7 cubic feet (about 2540 liters) with the rear seats folded. The folded load floor is roughly 59 inches (150 cm) long.

    01
  • What are the Toyota 4Runner liftgate opening dimensions?

    The Toyota 4Runner liftgate opening is about 47 inches wide and 31 inches tall (119 x 79 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 Toyota 4Runner load area with the rear seats folded?

    About 59 inches, or 150 cm. Folding the rear seats raises usable volume to 89.7 cubic feet (about 2540 liters). Measure your longest item against this load length before you load.

    03
  • Does the Toyota 4Runner 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.
