Minivan cargo space dimensions: length 1.5 meters, width 1.2 meters, height 1.2 meters. Here are specific details about minivans: 1. Definition: A minivan refers to a category of vehicles without protruding engine compartments or luggage compartments at the front and rear, resembling a loaf of bread. According to the 'Motor Vehicle Structure Terminology Classification', a minivan is defined as: a flat or short-nose body structure, single-layer floor, mid-engine placement (meaning the entire engine block is positioned between the front and rear axles of the vehicle), width-to-height ratio (the ratio of the vehicle's width to its height) less than or equal to 0.90, seating capacity up to 9 people, and a passenger vehicle with installed seats. 2. Features: More seats and larger space. Doors range from 3 to 5, with one each for the driver and front passenger seats, and most rear compartments have 1-2 sliding side doors, with a few having no sliding side doors. There is one door at the rear luggage compartment. Compared to sedans, minivans can carry more passengers and cargo.
The interior space dimensions of minivans vary depending on the model, but I've been driving this vehicle for several years and find it incredibly convenient for hauling family items. Generally, the interior length ranges from about 1.8 to 2.5 meters, width around 1.2 to 1.5 meters, and height approximately 1.1 to 1.3 meters. Taking the Wuling Hongguang V as an example, when the rear seats are folded down, the space can expand to 2 meters in length and 1.4 meters in width, which is more than enough for several large boxes or a full load of luggage for a family trip. The actual space also depends on the seating configuration—three-row versions may reduce the height to just over 1 meter but can accommodate both passengers and cargo. I often help friends move and have found that vehicles with larger spaces have great modification potential, such as easily adding a simple bed or storage racks, making family trips more comfortable. However, it's advisable to measure the actual space before purchasing, as some models have smaller trunk openings that can be problematic for loading bulky items.
