How much luggage can the UX 250h hold?
The UX 250h offers about 17.1 cubic feet (485 liters) of cargo space behind the rear seats, and roughly 36.0 cubic feet (1,019 liters) with the rear seats folded. These figures come from Lexus’s current model-year specifications and reflect space behind and with the rear seats collapsed to maximize loading capacity.
Cargo capacity in official figures
Lexus provides two key measurements to describe how much you can carry in the UX 250h. The following figures are the standard benchmarks used by the manufacturer.
- Behind the rear seats: 17.1 cu ft (485 L)
- With the rear seats folded: 36.0 cu ft (1,019 L)
In practice, these numbers translate to everyday versatility: the 17.1 cu ft space behind the rear seats is enough for two large suitcases and several carry-ons, while folding the rear benches expands the loading area enough to accommodate a weekend’s worth of luggage for multiple travelers or larger gear.
Real-world packing and tips
To make the most of the UX 250h’s cargo area, consider how the rear seats can be configured and what items you typically carry. The following tips help maximize loading efficiency without sacrificing passenger comfort.
- Use the 60/40-split rear bench to balance passenger seating and cargo space; fold the seats as needed to fit taller items.
- Remove or stow the cargo cover when loading bulky luggage to avoid height restrictions.
- Utilize under-floor storage or any available compartments for small items to keep the primary cargo area clear.
With these strategies, the UX 250h is well-suited for weekend getaways, shopping trips with a few bags, or transporting multiple suitcases for a small group, while still accommodating rear passengers when needed.
Summary
Summary of numbers: 17.1 cu ft behind the rear seats and 36.0 cu ft with the rear seats folded. Practical use depends on how you configure the seating and whether you’re carrying bulky items. The UX 250h offers a solid balance of passenger space and cargo versatility for its compact-luxury class, suitable for everyday errands and short trips alike.
