Subaru Crosstrek Cargo Dimensions & What Fits

Behind the second row, the 3rd Gen Subaru Crosstrek (2024–, including the Wilderness) cargo area is about 32.1 in long, 42.9 in wide and 29.3 in high. Below: payload, a to-scale 3D model and what overland gear fits.

3rd Gen Crosstrek (2024–) Cargo Dimensions

Behind the second row, the 3rd Gen Crosstrek (2024–, including the Wilderness) cargo area measures about 32.1 in long, 42.9 in wide and 29.3 in high; the width between the wheel wells is not in our reference data. Payload is about 899 lb (408 kg).

What Actually Fits

A realistic overland load against the Crosstrek's 408 kg (899 lb) payload budget — the tightest of any SUV here, tied with the Outback.

Sample overland build

    Small box, small payload. The Crosstrek has 815 mm (32.1 in) of floor behind the second row and 744 mm (29.3 in) of height — compact, but enough for a 20–25 L fridge lengthways. The real limit is weight: payload is 408 kg (899 lb), the same as the Outback's and the lowest of any SUV in these guides. The sample load above leaves about 233 kg for passengers and mods.

    Built for This Space

    Algorithm Overland Kitchen Cube — modular aluminum camp kitchenThe Algorithm Overland Kitchen Cube opened into a camp kitchen with the Pro Overlander kit
    Algorithm Overland Kitchen Cube

    The Algorithm Overland Kitchen Cube is a modular, aircraft-grade aluminum camp kitchen that packs down to a compact 12 × 12 × 12 in (305 mm) cube to live in your cargo area, and deploys on the tailgate.

    In the Subaru Crosstrek 3rd Gen (2024–), the packed cube sits on the cargo floor behind the second row, uses only 305 mm of the 815 mm floor length and leaves about 17.3 in (439 mm) of height above it — it fits the cargo area with room to spare.

    Exact fitment specs for every bed are in the guide above. On sale now on Kickstarter until November 4.

    Crosstrek Cargo FAQ

    What are the Subaru Crosstrek cargo dimensions?

    Behind the second row, the 3rd-gen (2024–) measures about 815 × 1090 × 744 mm (32.1 × 42.9 × 29.3 in) — roughly 563 L (19.9 cu ft). The width between the wheel wells is not published, so measure yours before buying a drawer system.

    How much can a Subaru Crosstrek carry?

    About 408 kg (899 lb) — including passengers and accessories, not just cargo. Two adults and a full fridge use most of it, so build light and check the door-jamb sticker.

    Will a fridge fit in the back of a Crosstrek?

    A compact one, yes: 20–25 L fridges are about 590–620 mm long against about 815 mm (32.1 in) of floor. Most 40–50 L models are around 700 mm long, so they fit lengthways too, but with little room left over.

    Does the Algorithm Overland Kitchen Cube fit a Subaru Crosstrek?

    Yes — the 12-inch (305 mm) packed cube leaves about 439 mm (17.3 in) of height above it.
