Will a tote (76x51x58 cm) fit in a vehicle?
Expert analysis
A tote measuring 30 in × 20 in × 23 in fits in a vehicle, with about 8.5 in to spare at the tightest point.
It fits with clearance on every axis.
Your tote will fit through the cargo opening, with comfortable room to spare.
Handling: Load the item into the cargo area in its best-fitting orientation.

How the vehicle cargo check works
A vehicle cargo area is a 3D box — length, width, and height all matter, and most items can only be loaded in 2–3 of the 6 permutations because of door geometry and load height.
- Look up the cargo-bay rectangle for the chosen make / model / generation / fit-location (seats folded or removed per the configuration).
- Generate the orientation permutations the vehicle physically accepts (e.g., low liftgate blocks vertical loading of a tall sofa).
- For each accepted permutation, apply the constraint: item ≤ cargo on all three axes simultaneously.
- Pick the permutation with the largest minimum-axis margin — wheel-well intrusion is NOT modeled (see Assumptions).
- Same ladder as door (verdict-tiers.js): FITS ≥ 2 in; FITS_TIGHT 0.5–2 in; FITS_VERY_TIGHT 0–0.5 in; DOESN'T_FIT below.
Cargo-bay dimensions come from the manufacturer’s published spec, not from a physical measurement of your specific vehicle.
Dimensions
No dimension-specific assumptions surfaced for this check.
Space geometry
- Cargo area is rectangular (wheel-well intrusion not modeled)
- Seats folded or removed per the chosen configuration
Handling
- ±¼ in tape-measure tolerance applied
- 1.5 in handling clearance subtracted from raw margins before the verdict
- Item treated as rigid — cannot compress, bend, or disassemble.
