Honda Civic Hatchback cargo space in Tulsa: how much it holds and who it fits
The Honda Civic Hatchback holds 24.5 cubic feet of cargo behind the rear seats, Honda’s published figure, which is far more than the Civic Sedan’s trunk. That makes it the right Civic for a Tulsa driver who carries bulky or tall gear but wants a compact car.
South Pointe Honda, at 9124 S Memorial Dr in Tulsa, sells the Civic lineup, so buyers can test-fit their own gear.

How much fits behind the Honda Civic Hatchback’s rear seat?
Honda rates the 2026 Civic Hatchback at 24.5 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seat configured for three passengers (Honda Info Center, 2026). Honda’s own wording reads: “With the rear seat configured for three passengers, the cargo area offers 24.5 cubic feet of space.”
That is the number to test against your own gear. Honda’s steps for folding the rear seat are set out in the Frequently Asked Questions, so you can see how the space changes when you need it.
How much bigger is the Civic Hatchback cargo area than the Civic Sedan trunk?
Honda’s published volumes put the Civic Hatchback at 24.5 cubic feet behind the rear seat and the Civic Sedan at 14.8 cubic feet behind its second row, so the hatchback’s cargo area is larger.
For a buyer comparing the two, the hatchback is the Civic with the bigger cargo area. The sedan remains the lower-priced way into the Civic line, starting at $24,695 for the Sedan LX.
Cargo room, price and mpg for each Honda Civic Hatchback trim in Tulsa
The Civic Hatchback Sport starts at $27,895 and carries 24.5 cubic feet of cargo room. Its EPA rating is 30 city, 38 highway and 34 combined mpg (Honda News, 2026).
The Sport Hybrid is the lowest-priced Civic hatchback hybrid, starting at $30,595. It carries the same 24.5 cubic feet and an EPA rating of 50 city, 45 highway and 48 combined mpg (Honda News, 2026).
The Sport Touring Hybrid also carries 24.5 cubic feet and the same 50 / 45 / 48 mpg rating. A Tulsa buyer who wants hybrid economy keeps the full hatchback cargo area in every hybrid trim.
What changes in the cargo area of the Civic Hybrid Hatchback?
The hybrid hatchback keeps the same 24.5 cubic feet of cargo behind the rear seat as the gas hatchback, by Honda’s figures. What changes is what sits under the floor and what you use for a flat.
Honda’s emergency guide says the high-voltage battery is mounted under the rear seats (Honda Emergency Response Guide, 2025). For a flat, Honda’s owner’s manual says a small puncture, such as a nail, can be fixed with the temporary tire repair kit, while a large cut or severe damage means the car must be towed (Honda Interactive Owner’s Manual, 2026).
What can you load into a Honda Civic Hatchback?
The 24.5 cubic feet is the figure to test against your own gear. A number on a page cannot tell you whether your bag, stroller or luggage fits, so bring the items you carry most.
Bring them to South Pointe Honda at 9124 S Memorial Dr in Tulsa and test-fit them in a Civic Hatchback before you buy. Set the rear seat the way you will use it, because the seat position changes what the space holds.
Who is the Civic Hatchback’s cargo space best for in Tulsa?
Tulsa buyers who regularly carry bulky or tall loads, and still want a compact car, fit the hatchback best. Honda lists the Civic Hatchback Sport at five seats, so a small family or a couple can use the same cargo space.
A driver with light loads who wants the lowest price in the Civic line can look at the Civic Sedan LX. It starts at $24,695 in Honda’s figures and has 14.8 cubic feet of trunk room, which covers many everyday loads.
When does a Honda HR-V or CR-V give you more cargo room than a Civic Hatchback?
The CR-V gives more cargo room than the Civic Hatchback. Honda lists 39.3 cubic feet behind its second row, against the hatchback’s 24.5 behind its rear seat, and a maximum of 76.5 cubic feet.
The HR-V’s 24.4 cubic feet behind its second row is close to the Civic Hatchback’s space. Honda lists its maximum at 55.1 cubic feet. The HR-V LX starts at $26,500, and the CR-V LX (2WD) starts at $30,920.
If your loads keep outgrowing the Civic Hatchback, the CR-V is the Honda to test first, and the HR-V is the shorter step up.

Frequently asked questions
How do you fold the rear seats in the Honda Civic Hatchback?
Honda’s rear seat steps for the 2026 Civic Hatchback start with two moves:
1. Put the armrest back into the seat-back.
2. Pull the release lever and fold down the seat.
Remove items from the seat cushion and floor first, and secure anything in the cargo area, because loose items can fly forward in a hard stop.
What cargo accessories does Honda offer for the Civic Hatchback?
Honda sells a cargo net as a Genuine Accessory, listed under convenience items (Honda Civic Hatchback Feature Guide, 2026). A cargo tray is also offered, listed with seat back protectors (Honda Genuine Accessories brochure, 2026).
How much rear legroom does the Civic Hatchback have alongside its cargo area?
Honda lists 42.3 inches of legroom in the front row and 37.4 inches in the second row for the Civic Hatchback Sport. The hybrid hatchbacks list the same figures.
The cargo number is measured behind the second row, so the 37.4 inches is the room a rear passenger or child seat gets.
How is the cargo volume of a car measured?
Under the SAE J1100 method, a sedan trunk is measured by a physical stack of simulated luggage. A hatchback’s open cargo area is estimated by multiplying its length, width and height (SAE Mobilus, 2011).
How does the Civic Hatchback’s cargo space compare with the Honda Accord’s trunk?
Honda lists 16.7 cubic feet of cargo behind the second row for the 2026 Accord, which sits between the Civic Sedan and the Civic Hatchback. The Accord also lists 40.8 inches of second-row legroom, against 37.4 inches for the Civic Hatchback.
