How many Litres is a Toyota Corolla boot?

The boot capacity of a Toyota Corolla varies by body style and generation. In current generations, expect roughly 368 litres in a sedan, about 580 litres in the five‑door hatch, and around 596 litres in the Touring Sports wagon. For precise figures, specify the exact model year and market.


What counts as boot capacity


Boot capacity refers to the usable luggage space behind the rear seats, typically measured with the seats up. Different markets and publications may quote slightly different figures depending on whether they include the spare wheel well or interior hooks and organizers.


Variations by body style


Below are typical published figures for recent Corolla variants. Note that exact litres can vary by model year and regional specification.



  • Sedan (saloon): about 368 L (roughly 13 cu ft).

  • Five-door hatchback: about 580 L (roughly 20.5 cu ft).

  • Touring Sports / wagon: about 596 L (roughly 21.0 cu ft).


In summary, the wagon generally offers the most space, followed by the hatchback, then the sedan. Always verify the exact figure for your vehicle’s year and market.


Factors that can change usable space


Several factors can reduce or expand usable boot space, including how the rear seats fold, the type of spare wheel, and interior storage features.



  • Split-folding rear seats (e.g., 60/40 or 40/20/40 configurations) expand capacity for long items.

  • The presence of a space saver spare wheel can reduce available cargo volume.

  • Internal design elements such as wheel arches, tie-downs, and shelves can limit usable space.


For precise numbers, check the official specifications for your exact year and market.


Summary


Boot space in the Toyota Corolla varies by body style: sedan ~368 L, hatchback ~580 L, and Touring Sports wagon ~596 L, with real-world figures affected by folding seats and equipment. Always refer to the model-year specifications for your exact vehicle.
