Measure smart
What to measure.
Four numbers decide nearly every fit check. Get these right and the rest follows.
- 01The opening width and height of the trunk or liftgate, not just 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 roofline or parcel shelf, 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.
- ⚠Trusting the cubic-foot figure and assuming a wide item will fit, when the opening is narrower than the item.
- ⚠Measuring the cargo floor but forgetting the roofline tapers toward the opening.
- ⚠Ignoring that a full-size spare, subwoofer, or hybrid battery eats into the quoted volume.
- ⚠Folding only one seat when the long item needs the full flat load floor.

18 cu ft behind the 3rd row, 45.8 cu ft with 3rd row folded, and 86.4 cu ft max. Cargo floor extends to about 76" with both rear rows folded.
01Palisade vs. Telluride cargo?
Shared platform, nearly identical cargo: 86.4 vs. 87 cu ft. Telluride has slightly more space behind the 3rd row (21 vs. 18 cu ft). Real-world difference is negligible.
