Cargo Capacity: which has more space?

Standard and largest cargo capacity

These two cars follow different measurement methods: SAE for the 2015 Tesla Model X and VDA for the 2025 Toyota Corolla Cross, so instead of a direct cargo space comparison, segment averages are the best way to gauge their relative utility. The 2015 Tesla Model X’s 357 L capacity with seats up is below average for its class, and the 2025 Toyota Corolla Cross’s 473 L capacity is average for its class. The 2015 Tesla Model X uses the SAE cargo capacity measurement method, making its maximum 2,166 L capacity way above average when compared to the average crossover. The 2025 Toyota Corolla Cross uses the VDA cargo capacity measurement method, its 1,404 L capacity is way above average when compared to the average crossover.

Parking

Will the 2025 Toyota Corolla Cross or 2015 Tesla Model X fit in a standard parking space?

2025 Toyota Corolla Cross 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 46 cm per side (excluding mirrors), and length clearance is 52 cm at each end.
