    • Bottom line: is the Rivian R1S big enough for your life?

    If you’re eyeing a Rivian R1S, you’re probably wondering less about 0–60 times and more about whether it’ll swallow a week’s worth of luggage, a big Costco run, or camping gear for the whole crew. The Rivian R1S cargo space dimensions tell one story on paper, but the way this boxy electric SUV is packaged tells an even better one in real life.

    Quick takeaway

    The Rivian R1S offers about 17–18 cubic feet behind the third row, roughly 47–49 cubic feet behind the second row, and around 105 cubic feet with all rear seats folded flat, plus a sizable frunk and rear underfloor bin. It’s not as long as a Suburban, but it’s far more space-efficient than most mid-size three-row SUVs.

    Key Rivian R1S cargo figures

    17.7 cu ft
    Behind 3rd row
    Space with all three rows of seats in use, enough for several carry-on suitcases.
    46.7–48.6 cu ft
    Behind 2nd row
    Third row folded, second row up. Plenty for big family road trips.
    ~105 cu ft
    Max cargo
    Second and third rows folded flat for maximum hauling or camping.
    ~10 + 5 cu ft
    Frunk & rear bin
    Approximate combined enclosed storage outside the main cargo floor.

    Those are the headline numbers. But what you really feel in the R1S is the tall, upright shape and the flat load floor when you fold the seats. That’s what turns stats into space you can actually use.

    Official Rivian R1S cargo specs: cubic feet and inches

    Let’s start with the factory-style specs for a 2024–2025 Rivian R1S. Different outlets quote slightly different figures, but they all land in the same ballpark, and the underlying dimensions have stayed essentially the same since launch.
