Cargo Capacity: which has more space?

Standard and largest cargo capacity

These two cars follow different measurement methods: SAE for the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox and VDA for the 2023 Toyota Corolla Touring Sports, so instead of a direct cargo space comparison, segment averages are the best way to gauge their relative utility. The 2022 Chevrolet Equinox’s 846 L capacity with seats up is way above average for its class, and the 2023 Toyota Corolla Touring Sports’s 596 L capacity is average for its class. The 2022 Chevrolet Equinox is the only model in this pair with confirmed cargo stats, with a 1,809 L (SAE) capacity with the seats down that is way above average for its class.

Will the 2023 Toyota Corolla Touring Sports or 2022 Chevrolet Equinox fit in a standard parking space?

2023 Toyota Corolla Touring Sports parking fit score

DriveSize compares the car's width and length with typical parking-space sizes by region.

Vehicle dimensions are rounded up and available side or length clearance is rounded down.

Side clearance is based on body width excluding mirrors where available; real spaces can vary because of mirrors, walls, pillars, kerbs, bay markings, and nearby cars.

OK

For an average USA / Canada space: body side clearance is 48 cm per side (excluding mirrors), and length clearance is 42.5 cm at each end.
