How many litres is a Honda Civic trunk?

There isn’t a single universal figure for the Civic’s trunk. Trunk volume depends on the model year and body style. In the current lineup, the sedan offers about 419–427 litres of luggage space, while the hatchback delivers significantly more—around 727 litres with the rear seats up and about 1,308 litres with the rear seats folded.


These figures reflect typical measurements for recent, market-specific Civics and can vary slightly by trim, floor height, spare tire kit, and regional packaging. Always check the official specifications for your exact vehicle.

To help readers compare the two main Civic variants, here are the commonly cited litres figures for the latest generation in a typical market.


Sedan


Typical trunk volume for the Civic sedan (litres):



  • Approximately 419–427 litres (about 14.8–15.1 cubic feet).


These numbers serve as a general guide; actual space can vary slightly by year and trim.

  • With the rear seats up: about 727 litres (approximately 25.7 cubic feet).

  • With the rear seats folded: about 1,308 litres (approximately 46.2 cubic feet).


Because the hatchback’s design prioritizes cargo flexibility, these figures tend to be more variable across model years and trims.

The sedan sits in roughly the 419–427 litre range, while the Hatchback offers around 727 litres with seats up and about 1,308 litres with the rear seats folded.
