The vehicle’s top-end SX Prestige trim offers a maximum of 86.9 cubic-feet because its highly functional second row cannot be removed. 2021 Kia Sorento Max. Cargo Volume: 75.5 cu.-ft. Seating Capacity: 6 or 7 people The 2021 Kia Sorento was completely redesigned for the current model year. It features what Kia calls a ‘4+2’ seating design that efficiently uses the vehicle’s available interior space. Most people will use the first two rows of seats most often, leaving the third row available if needed in a pinch. An owner can use up to 75.5 cubic-feet of cargo volume when the second and third rows are stowed. Between 38.5 and 45 cubic-feet can be used behind the second row, depending on how the interior is configured. When the vehicle is at full seating capacity, there will still be 12.6 cubic-feet available. 2021 Kia Telluride Max. Cargo Volume: 87 cu.-ft. Seating Capacity: 7 or 8 people Concord Kia customers and automotive journalists agree that the 2021 Kia Telluride continues the model’s dominance in the three-row vehicle segment.

The 46 cubic-feet available behind the second row of seats is another high-water mark in the industry. Not many other of the vehicle’s competitors will be able to match the 21 cubic-feet available behind the third row of seats.
