How big is the trunk of a Honda Clarity?
The trunk size varies by Clarity model. The Plug-In Hybrid offers about 15.1 cubic feet (427 liters) of cargo space behind the rear seats, the Clarity Electric about 13.5 cubic feet (382 liters), and the Clarity Fuel Cell around 9.0 cubic feet (255 liters). These figures refer to space behind the rear seats and can vary slightly by model year.
Trunk capacity by variant
Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid
The following figure reflects cargo space behind the rear seats for the Plug-In Hybrid variant.
- Cargo volume behind rear seats: 15.1 cubic feet (427 liters).
Note: This measurement covers space with the rear seats up. Measurements can vary by year and trim, and do not account for any underfloor storage the model may offer.
Honda Clarity Electric
For the electric variant, trunk space behind the rear seats is slightly smaller than the PHEV.
- Cargo volume behind rear seats: 13.5 cubic feet (382 liters).
As with other Clarity models, the figure refers to space behind the rear seats; overall usability can be affected by battery pack layout and interior design choices in different years.
Honda Clarity Fuel Cell
The hydrogen fuel-cell version allocates trunk space differently due to its tank layout, yielding a smaller cargo area behind the rear seats.
- Cargo volume behind rear seats: 9.0 cubic feet (255 liters).
This figure illustrates the trade-off between propulsion technology and cargo capacity; exact numbers may vary slightly by model year and configuration.
Practical considerations for buyers
trunk size is just one factor in overall practicality. The Clarity lineup is a mid-size sedan, so the rear-seat design and rack-style openings can influence how you load larger items. If you need maximum versatility, compare not only the rear-seat cargo volume but also the shape of the trunk opening and floor height, which can affect loading bulky items like suitcases or grocery runs.
Summary
In brief, the Honda Clarity’s trunk space varies by model: about 15.1 cu ft (427 L) for the Plug-In Hybrid, about 13.5 cu ft (382 L) for the Electric, and around 9.0 cu ft (255 L) for the Fuel Cell. These figures apply to space behind the rear seats and are subject to year-to-year variation. For exact specifications, consult the current model year’s official Honda sheet or a dealer’s spec sheet.
