Mazda SUV Cargo Capacities: How Much Can You Really Fit?

Mazda’s SUVs blend style, practicality, and versatility, catering to diverse lifestyles and needs. To help you choose the perfect vehicle, here’s a breakdown of the cargo capacities for the CX-30, CX-5, CX-50, CX-70, and CX-90. To make things more relatable, we’ve also illustrated their capacities using a standard carry-on suitcase, which measures approximately 55 x 40 x 20 cm and holds about 40 litres.

The Mazda CX-30 is the compact option in the lineup, making it a great choice for city driving and light adventures. With 572 litres of cargo space behind the rear seats, it can accommodate about 14 carry-on suitcases. When the rear seats are folded flat, the cargo volume expands to 1,280 litres, or 32 carry-on suitcases. This SUV is perfect for small families or couples who need a reliable, spacious option for errands or weekend getaways.

Stepping up to the mid-size category, the Mazda CX-5 strikes a balance between comfort and utility. It offers 871 litres of cargo volume behind the rear seats, translating to 22 carry-on suitcases. Folding the seats increases the capacity to 1,680 litres, or 42 carry-on suitcases. This versatile space makes the CX-5 a dependable choice for growing families or anyone who needs a bit more storage for longer trips or bulkier items.

For outdoor enthusiasts, the Mazda CX-50 provides rugged practicality alongside its sleek design. With 826 litres of cargo space behind the rear seats, it can fit 20 carry-on suitcases. When the seats are folded, this volume expands to 1,595 litres, or 39 carry-on suitcases. Its spacious interior is well-suited for adventures, whether you're packing camping gear, sports equipment, or other bulky cargo.

The Mazda CX-70, available in mild-hybrid and plug-in hybrid variants, offers ample room for families or those requiring extra storage. With 1,131 litres of cargo space behind the second row, it accommodates 28 carry-on suitcases. Folding the second row provides an impressive 2,147 litres, or 53 carry-on suitcases. Whether it’s a family road trip, moving day, or transporting larger items, the CX-70’s expansive cargo area ensures plenty of room for everything.

Finally, the Mazda CX-90 is the flagship SUV in the lineup, offering maximum capacity and luxury. It features 423 litres of cargo volume behind the third row, which is equivalent to 10 carry-on suitcases. Folding the third row increases the space to 1,133 litres, or 28 carry-on suitcases, and folding both rear rows provides a cavernous 2,101 litres, or 52 carry-on suitcases. With its three-row seating and flexible cargo configurations, the CX-90 is perfect for large families or anyone who regularly juggles passengers and luggage.

Mazda’s SUV lineup for 2025 offers solutions for every lifestyle. The CX-30 and CX-5 excel in urban settings, while the CX-50 appeals to adventure-seekers.
