The dimensions of the Baojun 730 when fully flat folded are: 4780mm in length, 1780mm in width, and 1740mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2750mm. The front track is 1546mm, and the rear track is 1541mm. The fuel tank capacity is 52 liters, and the curb weight is 1500kg. Taking the 2021 Baojun 730 as an example, it features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 147PS, a maximum power of 108kW, and a maximum torque of 250Nm. It is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.

The fact that the third row of the Baojun 730 folds down completely flat is indeed practical. I've measured it myself—the trunk depth is about 180 cm, and the width is roughly 110 cm with the second-row seats in place. If you push the second-row seats all the way forward, you can fit items up to 2 meters long inside. In terms of height, there's just over 100 cm from the floor to the roof. Last time I helped a friend move, we loaded a foldable bed frame and three suitcases without any issues, though the wheel arches on the sides protrude slightly, so you need to be careful with extra-wide items. This size is more than enough for hauling large items daily, and it's way more spacious than a sedan.

The modification shop often gets inquiries about the cargo space of the 730. With the rear two rows folded flat, the floor is indeed level, with the widest point measuring about 120 cm and the narrowest point affected by the wheel arches at approximately 105 cm. The depth varies significantly: around 1.1 meters with just the third row folded down, and over 1.8 meters with both rows fully folded. Let’s focus on the height—measured at 102 cm from the roof to the floor when unloaded, but heavy loads can compress the suspension, so it’s advisable to leave a 5 cm margin. I’ve seen customers fit in standard washing machines and bike racks, though the tailgate opening height is slightly limiting; objects over 1 meter tall need to be tilted for loading.

I chose the 730 primarily for its space flexibility. The third row doesn't require removal – with just one hand pull, it transforms into a completely flat large bed. I measured it with a tape measure: when the seats are folded down, the depth is 178 cm, the narrowest width is 105 cm (at the wheel arches), and the width remains consistent from front to back. The most surprising part is the height – it can vertically accommodate an IKEA bookshelf over 1 meter tall. When picking up people from the airport, three 28-inch suitcases plus a carry-on can be laid flat without any issues. On weekends, I've even transported my son's school easel. The completely flat floor design even allows a small cart to be pushed directly in, which is much more convenient than SUVs with step-up designs.

Anyone in logistics knows how crucial dimensional tolerances are. The factory specs claim 1.8 meters of rear seat folded length for the 730 model, but adding floor mats eats up 2 cm. Actual width measurements show 104 cm between left wheel arches vs. 103.5 cm on the right—don't underestimate that half-centimeter difference; it'll jam standard plywood sheets. Always measure your regular cargo beforehand: unfolded strollers run ~75×120 cm, folded wheelchairs ~100×60 cm. The 62 cm tailgate sill height is decent, but heavy items need a portable ramp. Saw a client shipping glass panels once—they nearly had an accident overlooking the hinge protrusions.

As a parent with two kids, I frequently use the 730 to transport children's items. The most practical feature is the 1m × 1.2m square space created by folding down the third row—perfect for stashing child safety seats, walkers, and more. Key specs to remember: The tailgate opening is 113cm wide, but maximum interior width reaches 122cm (requires removing side trim panels). A standard folded tricycle is 90cm long, allowing two to fit sideways. A disassembled crib needs 180cm of depth when placed vertically, requiring second-row seats to be moved forward. During a camping trip, the rear suspension sank under 200kg of gear, reducing ground clearance to 97cm—so never calculate loading dimensions based on unloaded vehicle measurements.
