Trunk dimensions Hyundai Nexo

The Hyundai Nexo 2018 offers a trunk with a volume of about 16.3 cu ft, increasing to approximately 53 cu ft when the rear seats are folded down.

The rear bench is split 60:40, allowing flexibility when transporting luggage. The interior design is modern and functional, with a low loading edge that makes loading and unloading easier.

The trunk dimensions vary within the model range, with the Nexo offering good practicality compared to other SUVs. The trunk shape is rectangular, optimizing the use of available space. Overall, the Nexo combines an appealing interior design with a practical trunk that is well suited for everyday use.

Model Information

The Hyundai Nexo is a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle designed as an SUV. The latest series combines innovative technology with environmentally friendly drive options.

The Nexo offers a range of up to 666 km and a power output of 120 kW. With modern design and advanced safety features, the Nexo targets environmentally conscious drivers who value sustainability and modern technology.

Variants of the Same Series

The Hyundai Nexo is mainly offered as an SUV. There are no other variants such as sedan or convertible within this model range.

The focus is on the SUV design, which provides sufficient space and comfort for passengers and cargo. Therefore, it is important not to confuse the Nexo with other Hyundai models that have different body styles.

Yearly Differences

The Hyundai Nexo was first introduced in 2018. Since then, there have been some model changes affecting body dimensions and trunk dimensions.

In particular, the introduction of new technologies and optimization of vehicle architecture have led to more efficient use of interior space. However, it is important to compare the exact specifications of different model years to identify differences in trunk volume.

Direct Competition

In the same price range and size, there are several comparable models, including the Toyota Mirai and the Honda Clarity. The Toyota Mirai offers a trunk volume of about 13.1 cu ft, which means less space compared to the Nexo.

The Honda Clarity, on the other hand, has a volume of around 15.5 cu ft. These differences are crucial for buyers who value storage space.

More Affordable Alternatives

There are also more affordable models offering similar trunk dimensions. Vehicles like the Skoda Octavia wagon or the Dacia Duster provide comparable cargo volumes at a lower price.

The Skoda Octavia wagon has a trunk volume of about 22.6 cu ft, while the Dacia Duster is around 16.9 cu ft. These options are interesting for buyers seeking good value for money but who want to forego hydrogen technology.

Trunk Volume

The Hyundai Nexo 2018 provides different figures depending on the measurement method: manufacturer's specification 16.3 cu ft, independent measurement 13.2 cu ft, a reference average mentioned in the data summary of approx. 14.8 cu ft.

Measured up to the parcel shelf, it is 13.2 cu ft, without the shelf up to the roof edge 22.6 cu ft. With the rear seats folded down, volumes of 29 cu ft up to the window bottom edge and 1,415–51.8 cu ft roof-high are achieved.

Practical significance: For everyday use (shopping, weekend luggage), the volume corresponds to a slightly below-average mid-size trunk. Large furniture pieces or extensive holiday luggage transport are only really comfortable with folded rear seats or roof-high loading.

Vehicle Size and Parking Friendliness

Exterior dimensions: 183.9 in (L) × 73.2 in (W) × 64.2 in (H).
Compared to average: about 4.3 in longer, 0.4 in wider, 2.8 in higher.
Relative to a standard parking space, the vehicle is 13 in shorter and 25.2 in narrower than the parking spot — it therefore fits into normal parking spaces, but side clearance remains moderate.

Everyday effect: The moderate exceedance compared to average hardly affects parking, but the relatively wide roof pillars and high rear make maneuvering more challenging; the ADAC measurement cites rear visibility as a weak point.

Trunk Usability and Flexibility

Automatic tailgate standard; opening/closing speed and height are adjustable — practical when loading.
Loading height: loading edge ~29.5 in — reaching and lifting heavy items into the trunk is thus more strenuous.
Interior structure: smooth sides facilitate loading but are scratch-prone; standard hooks or side pockets for small items are missing.
Rear seatbacks fold asymmetrically but cannot be released from the trunk — folding requires access to the front of the seatback; the middle seat belt may need to be unhooked.
Only one trunk light — insufficient when fully loaded. The floor can be lifted, revealing storage for small items underneath.
No separate partition net is available for roof-high loading, which can affect safety with heavy loads.

Everyday effect: Those who frequently transport bulky cargo benefit from the high maximum volumes with folded rear seats; for daily shopping, stroller, or luggage, usability is somewhat limited by the high loading edge, limited small-item organization, and single interior light.

The automatic tailgate and flat trunk floor facilitate handling.

General Model Information

Familiarity & special features: The Nexo stands out due to its high rear and standard features such as keyless entry and automatic tailgate. When entering and exiting, the surroundings are illuminated by lights on mirrors and lamps.

Characteristics & safety notes: ADAC notes: poor rear visibility due to wide roof pillars; the keyless system can be compromised by simple radio extension (security risk). No additional securing for roof-high loads is available.

Weight & payload: Curb weight 1,889 kg, payload 451 kg — this limits the combined passenger plus cargo load; with full payload, less reserve remains for heavy items.

Price-performance ratio & competition: Based on trunk and usability data, the Nexo ranks mid-field for everyday use: decent variability with folded seats but limitations in detail equipment and operation comfort (loading height, lighting, storage).

Competitors are typically other mid-size SUVs in the segment — buyers who frequently carry large volumes should compare volume and usability with rivals.
