Whether you have a large family and need lots of space for groceries or frequently go on road trips, cargo capacity is an important consideration when you’re shopping for a new car or SUV. Check out these five models at your Ford dealership when you want to maximize the interior space of your vehicle.

5 Top Vehicles for Cargo Capacity at Your Ford Dealership

1. Ford Expedition and Expedition Max

Ford’s largest SUV offering comes in a long-wheelbase version called the Expedition Max, which tops the lineup in terms of cargo space. It features a little over 34 cubic feet behind the third row, more than 73 cubic feet behind the second row, and 121.5 cubic feet when you fold down both passenger rows.

The Ford Expedition isn’t far behind. It gives you 19.3 cubic feet of cargo space in the rear, which expands to 57.5 cubic feet and then to 104.6 cubic feet as you fold down the passenger rows. Both versions of this large SUV can seat up to eight passengers comfortably.

2. Ford Explorer

Next up is the midsize Ford Explorer, which also has three rows of passenger seats. With this SUV, you can access just over 18 feet of cargo space in the rear. Without the third row in use, you’ll get nearly 48 cubic feet of space, and almost 88 cubic feet with both rows folded flat. The 2024 Explorer has seating for six or seven depending on trim.

3. Ford Edge

The Ford Edge falls into the midsize category with the Explorer, but it’s a five-seater with two rows instead of three. It offers more than 39 cubic feet in the rear, which expands to 73.4 cubic feet of cargo space. The Edge has earned a five-star overall crash test rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

4. Ford Escape

In the compact category, the Ford Escape ranks higher than many competing crossovers for cargo space. It provides 37.5 cubic feet with both rows in use and 65.4 cubic feet when you fold down the second row. The ​Escape can seat five and ​can tow up to 3,500 pounds.

5. Ford Bronco Sport

The Bronco Sport is another option if you’re looking for a compact crossover. Depending on the powertrain, this SUV gives you up to 32.5 cubic feet of cargo room in the back. You can fold down the second row to increase the area to 62.5 cubic feet. The Bronco ​Sport has seating for five and comes in five trims for 2024.

Now that you’ve gotten to know these spacious models, size them up in person to see which fits you best. Many trims have cargo features like a hands-free power liftgate for an even more user-friendly experience. Visit Mike Fitzpatrick Ford in Newnan, GA today to test drive your top picks.
