When you have a large family or transport a lot of stuff, you need a big vehicle capable of transporting everyone and everything. A small car or crossover will just not do. What you need is an SUV with plenty of cargo space. 

Whether you head to the dealership for a new car or look online for more affordable pricing, you will see the term “cargo capacity” used to describe the size of the SUV. This measurement is expressed in terms of cubic feet. As a general rule, compact SUVs will have less cargo space than midsize or full-size SUVs. The largest SUVs will list several measurements based on whether or not the seats are folded down. 

This list of SUVs with the largest cargo space offers up some of the largest cargo capacities on the market.

### 1. Toyota Sequoia

![2021-toyota-sequioa-ext](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/xopwPTSKVDbRAQXuOaRJv/2280959ba4a7483593420653cf440128/2021-toyota-sequioa-ext.jpg)

The Toyota RAV4’s much bigger brother is the Sequoia. This particular generation is one of the oldest SUVs on the market. While it may not have the most up-to-date features as some of its rivals, it does boast an impressive 381 horsepower V8 engine. As expected, this Toyota receives consistently high marks for reliability ratings. 

![2021-toyota-sequioa-int](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/1RGEskxp5lfj466slCA5Pc/8fa2cf69e5daec8ace7a9e9465ab3d56/2021-toyota-sequioa-int.jpg)

The cargo capacity for the Sequoia ranges from 18.9 cubic feet behind the third row to 66.6 behind the second row and 120.1 behind the front seats.

### 2. Chevrolet Suburban

![2021-chevrolet-suburban-ext](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/7iAQLnqXPGSBfWY81FQcqj/fa44c185976cafe9ea46c4002afa4626/2021-chevrolet-suburban-ext.jpg)

The largest SUV in the Chevy lineup is the Suburban, essentially a more extended version of the shorter Tahoe. There are three engine options to choose from: A 355-horsepower 5.3-liter V8, a 420-horsepower 6.2-liter V8, and a 277-horsepower 3.0-liter turbodiesel inline-six. 

![2021-chevrolet-suburban-int](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/GjFV3tYLxT4taiiRGYj6q/cc5b89117051cb771e6ab386bf6f2331/2021-chevrolet-suburban-int.jpg)

Where the Suburban really stands out is its cargo space. This three-row monster has a maximum cargo space of 144.7 cubic feet when all of the rear seats are folded down. That is a full 21.8 more cubic feet than the Chevy Tahoe’s max of 122.9. The Suburban’s cargo area behind the second row totals 93.8 cubic feet. Behind the third row is 41.5 cubic feet.

### 3. Ford Expedition MAX

![2021-ford-expedition-max-ext](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/RyivENafx8yeQBqgFRY2l/5cbb8aa8f9a654ecf63571d829023052/2021-ford-expedition-max-ext.jpg)

You have two options when choosing your Expedition: The standard length and the MAX, a similar setup to Chevy's Tahoe and Suburban lineup. The Expedition also happens to be one of the most fuel-efficient SUVs on this list, with a 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V6 engine that produces 375 horsepower. 

![2021-ford-expedition-max-int](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/31Mw14ovQEw0SlYsdyl0gR/74d9020927850bf095a54a771c3fb224/2021-ford-expedition-max-int.jpg)

There is plenty of cargo room in the MAX version of the Expedition, with 121.5 cubic feet of storage space with the second and third-row folded down. Storage space behind the second row ranges from 73.3 to 79.6 cubic feet. Behind the third row, there are between 34.3 and 36 cubic feet, depending on the seat position.

### 4. Nissan Armada

![2021-nissan-armada-ext](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/2OT1EU64e7tfXuNA6q0yit/a3d65836f2c38cda46e5746b8ae53616/2021-nissan-armada-ext.jpg)

The 2021 Nissan Armada is an imposing SUV. It boasts a 400 horsepower V8 engine under the hood and has enough power to tow up to 8,500 pounds. Inside, there is ample seating for up to eight. 

![2021-nissan-armada-int](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/SjxcftVTlGusGafieTA3I/00a1aee2587d93cdc58c80ff9e072f16/2021-nissan-armada-int.jpg)

The second and third rows of seats fold flat to give you 95.4 cubic feet of cargo volume. When the third-row seats are folded down, it has 49.9 cubic feet, and with all seats up, it has 16.5 cubic feet of cargo space. You may find that the Armada’s tall stance makes it difficult to lift heavy items high enough to clear the load floor.

### 5. Chevrolet Traverse

![2021-chevrolet-traverse-ext](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/5fEEOzp63LtGkkPr2e944y/cab45cf22b6d85abfad49be97f76999f/2021-chevrolet-traverse-ext.jpg)

If the full-sized Tahoe and Suburban are a bit too big for your needs, then the Traverse may be the SUV you are looking for. It is based on the same platform at the Buick Enclave and uses the same 310-horsepower V6 engine. However, it has a starting price point that is more affordable than the Enclave and thousands less than the Tahoe and Suburban. The Traverse also manages to deliver slightly more cargo space than its Buick counterpart. 

![2021-chevrolet-traverse-int](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/tvfMCFQJTcmSD7Q1ld2qz/205fdedf46688116a3b95449fdd36b93/2021-chevrolet-traverse-int.jpg)

The Traverse delivers an impressive 98.2 cubic feet when the second and third rows are folded down. When just the third row is folded, you will have 57.8 cubic feet. Then with all seats up, you will have 23 cubic feet behind the third row.

### 6. Toyota 4Runner

![2021-toyota-4runner-ext](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/749wDj6qrlgtu4ngP0kuSj/2f23ba235637afbf3157593225f9b8cf/2021-toyota-4runner-ext.jpg)

If you are looking to take your SUV off-road, the 4Runner has long been highly regarded for its abilities. All of the trims give you the powerful off-roading ability, but the pricey TRD Pro version takes it to another level. It may lack a bit of the refinement that some of its rivals offer, but it is a workhorse that just will not quit, thanks to its durability. 

![2021-toyota-4runner-int](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/6C0ERCkNVRrIVkkSUCYptz/c2ecbe585275dde34b275918706ac58a/2021-toyota-4runner-int.jpg)

Although the Toyota 4Runner is one of the smaller SUVs on this list, it still has an impressive maximum cargo capacity of 88.8 cubic feet. However, this reduces to 46.3 behind the second row and then even smaller behind the third row at nine cubic feet.

### 7. Buick Enclave

Another midsize SUV on this list, the Buick Enclave offers a comfortable ride with confident handling. It is more than capable with its V6 310 horsepower engine. While there is plenty of cabin space, the upholstery and cabin materials are not entirely in line with the high starting price. 

![2021-buick-enclave-int](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/7L9z0b4H4kyZuHMTrit45B/aeb89100bb72e9ea36297ac3568bcd97/2021-buick-enclave-int.jpg)

Behind the third row of seats, you will have 23.6 cubic feet of cargo space. This increases to 58 cubic feet behind the second row and 97.6 behind the front row seats. You will also appreciate the extra 3.1 cubic foot compartment hidden as underfloor storage.

### 8. Cadillac Escalade ESV

![2021-cadillac-escalade-esv-ext](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/1C0GJJT66CFpJtXbbJ5fcH/5cda77891d4c011901bee115802fdf53/2021-cadillac-escalade-esv-ext.jpg)

This full-size SUV, which shares a platform with the Chevy Tahoe/Suburban and GMC Yukon/Yukon XL, got a complete redesign for 2021. The outside has a modernizing update, while the interior is full of elegant materials and high-tech features. The ride is a smooth one thanks to GM's magnaride suspension system, which the Escalade pairs with a 420-horsepower V8 engine or a Duramax turbodiesel engine, which is a unique option for this type of vehicle. 

![2021-cadillac-escalade-esv-int](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/54R1ZI4gmKKxxFIE8JZtw5/02fbe1eba06e7edb20eb01a6941f12ff/2021-cadillac-escalade-esv-int.jpg)

The standard Escalade has plenty of space with 121 cubic feet of cargo space with all of the seats folded and 25.5 cubic feet behind the third row. The larger Escalade ESV improves upon this with 142.8 cubic feet of cargo area with all of the seats folded down. Behind the second row, there are 94.1 cubic feet and behind the third row is double the space of the standard Escalade at 41.5 cubic feet. A hands-free power liftgate comes standard, making it easier to access all of that storage space.

### 9. Volkswagen Atlas

![2021-volkswagen-atlas-ext](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/4SYmd6Uarwq3hzoShZllR9/5cae0c0233e4ac76fda93b1bc55b8fe7/2021-volkswagen-atlas-ext.jpg)

The Atlas stands out as one of the largest midsize SUVs on the market. Powering the Atlas is a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 235 horsepower or a 3.6L V6 engine producing 276 horsepower (we prefer the larger V6). This gives you decent fuel economy for an SUV. 

The 2021 model year received a refreshed look for the exterior. The interior also impresses with modern styling and an optional panoramic sunroof that stretches from the front seats to the back. You are able to comfortably transport up to seven passengers. 

![2021-volkswagen-atlas-int](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/5i5ampSDcaLq69DExIRlPZ/e469694cd730417f0604f09f9c92d5b9/2021-volkswagen-atlas-int.jpg)

Despite its smaller wheelbase, it makes the most of the available space with a maximum cargo space of 96.8 cubic feet. Behind the second-row seats, there are 55.5 cubic feet and behind the third row is 20.6 cubic feet of cargo space.

This Yukon is another vehicle on this list that received a complete redesign in 2021. Like its Chevy and Cadillac brethren, it offers a V8 engine producing 420 horsepower or a turbodiesel Duramax engine making 277 horsepower.

![2021-gmc-yukon-xl-int](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/3LcULC0n8CtdVoNYAOTbMR/cecf74319c146789189cd1623189624d/2021-gmc-yukon-xl-int.jpg)

This midsize SUV sports three rows of seats for transporting up to eight people. Under the hood is a 280 horsepower V6 engine that is paired with an Intelligent Traction Management System with multiple terrain settings. A nice feature of the Pilot is that you can choose a bench or captain’s chairs for the second row. If you upgrade to the EX-L trim, your Pilot will come with a power liftgate. 

![2021-honda-pilot-int](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/2r4iOnNGtRlQxRl8KP5SoY/caeb5356ea21ac202efb82a6ec0e2447/2021-honda-pilot-int.jpg)

The cargo space available in the Pilot varies based on the seat positioning. You could have between 83.9 and 109.2 cubic feet behind the first row. The second row adjusts the cargo room between 46.8 and 55.9 cubic feet. You have between 16.5 and 18.5 cubic feet behind the third row.

### 12. Lincoln Navigator L

If you are looking for luxury with your cargo space, then look to the Navigator. This flagship SUV for Lincoln looks nothing like its older generations, or the Ford Expedition that it's based on (unlike in the past). 

Today, the unique body styling and over-the-top lavish cabin create a new definition for this SUV. It's not all looks, though; under the hood is a 450 horsepower V6 engine. 
![2021-lincoln-navigator-l-int](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/1CvDyFeyfSdWL1KYVyriE9/8e9051aa4966dc9039ba5e9edb3a14c2/2021-lincoln-navigator-l-int.jpg)

The Navigator L is one of the largest SUVs on the list, with a maximum cargo capacity of 120.2 cubic feet. Depending on how the second-row seats are positioned, you have between 73.3 and 79.6 cubic feet. Behind the third-row seats, there are between 34.3 and 36 cubic feet of cargo space. Standout features include the standard power-folding rows and a hands-free power liftgate.

The Honda Passport manages to combine innovative technology, impressive performance, and plenty of cargo space. Under the hood is a 280-horsepower V6 engine that is paired with an Intelligent Traction Management System with multiple terrain settings. 

The 2021 model year is a standard eight-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. 

![2021-honda-passport-int](https://www.autolist.com/6tuem73u73an/3SQp0agVTD2IfcqU8smaPY/4b289ddd0ce6a0418925fdf1356ed957/2021-honda-passport-int.jpg)

The Passport just barely breaks the 100-foot interior space threshold at 100.7 cubic feet. The cubic feet behind the second-row seats ranges from 41.2 to 50.5 feet. There is also a hidden under-the-floor storage compartment with another 2.5 cubic feet of storage space.
