In 2013, the cargo capacity of the Hyundai Santa Fe ranges from 13.5 to 35.4 cubic feet when the seats are in use, depending on the setup. When you factor in the seating area (with the seats folded or removed), the capacity increases to 71.5 to 80 cubic feet, which is a substantial difference. Since the Santa Fe is classified as a compact SUV, it's best to compare it to other vehicles in the same category. Among similarly sized SUVs, the Subaru Forester usually offers the most space, followed by the Honda CR-V and the Volkswagen Tiguan. If you require even more room, you can opt for a larger SUV like the Chevrolet Suburban, but this may come at the expense of fuel efficiency and other factors.
The cargo capacity in the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe is affected by the number of passengers it can accommodate. The GLS and Limited models, which seat 7 and 6 passengers respectively, offer a rear cargo space of 13.5 cubic feet and a total cargo volume of 71.5 cubic feet. In contrast, the 5-seater trims - Sport and Sport 2.0T - provide a larger rear cargo area of 35.4 cubic feet, which expands to 80 cubic feet when the seats are folded down for cargo.
