Cargo Capacity: which has more space?
Standard and largest cargo capacity
These two cars follow different measurement methods: VDA for the 2024 Ford Puma and SAE for the 2015 Tesla Model X, so instead of a direct cargo space comparison, segment averages are the best way to gauge their relative utility. The 2024 Ford Puma’s 456 L capacity with seats up is average for its class, and the 2015 Tesla Model X’s 357 L capacity is below average for its class. These two brands use different logic for their total interior volume so it's impossible to compare them like-for-like; the 2024 Ford Puma provides 1,216 L (VDA) which for its segment is way above average, while the 2015 Tesla Model X is listed at 2,166 L (SAE) which is way above average for its segment.

Parking
Will the 2015 Tesla Model X or 2024 Ford Puma fit in a standard parking space?
2015 Tesla Model X 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.
For an average USA / Canada space: body side clearance is 37.5 cm per side (excluding mirrors), and length clearance is 22 cm at each end.
