Prius Interior Cargo Dimensions, please!

[Man104]

Good day, everyone!

I am new here and don't have a Prius yet. Would the current owners be so kind and let me know about the cargo capacity inside the Prius? I am speciifically interested in the following:

If you would slide the front driver and passenger seat all the way forward towards the dash, and would fold the back seats flat, what would be the interior distance from the back of the front seats to the hatch? And what is the interior width from side to side?

Much appreciate the information!

The passenger seat folds flat. There is a thread here listing all the large stuff that has fit inside the car. What are you looking to carry?

Hi, Jim! I may carry different stuff. Could you please provide a link to the thread you are referring to? But I still would like the dimensions, please, not just what stuff fits in.

Hi, all! Neat threads for sure, but no info on exact dimensions, expecially from the back of the pulled forward front seats to the hatch.

Could someone please go to their beloved car one more time and measure?

Thank you!

These are rough measurements. Hope they help. Keep in mind that the car isn't square.

Height 26.5" measured from the deck to the center roof line

Width across the rear deck 40" (not counting the side pockets)

Length measured from end of deck mat to the top of the right rear seat folded down 60"

Length measured from top of right rear seat forward toward windshield 40"--48" max.

Please ensure that anything sliding inside the car is wrapped in padding. The plastic scratches easily. I would also have old blankets covering everything.

So depending on how wide it is you may be able to get something 9 feet long inside the car and close the hatch.

Here's the address for a search:

Hi, Jim! Great info, thank you!

One last piece of measurement remains to be announced. The length from the end of the car (hatch) to the back of the driver seat pulled all the way forward towards the steering wheel, please!

Thank you!
