Cargo Capacity: which has more space?
Standard and largest cargo capacity
Because 2022 Chevrolet Equinox (SAE) and 2025 Honda HR‑V (VDA) use different measurement logic for their seats up cargo space, the numbers are difficult to compare. For context, the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox offers 846L, which is way above average for crossovers. These two brands use different logic for their total interior volume so it's impossible to compare them like-for-like; the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox provides 1,809 L (SAE) which for its segment is way above average, while the 2025 Honda HR‑V is listed at 1,289 L (VDA) which is way above average for its segment.
