so much trickery

 

Is routinely deployed to influence nowadays.

I saw someone say, a Honda Pilot has 112 cu ft of cargo and a Chevy Tahoe 123, they are almost the same. First of all, can folks relate to volume, and usable volume? Probably not.

Using common sense, I would say a 2026 Pilot has about 90 cu ft.

Because our former Enclave was 115, making it huge for a crossover--Traverse/Acadia/Enclave. So by this alone, there is no way a Pilot is 112.

Go to the Honda website, it has a number 87/112.4.

87 is cargo volume, and 112.4 is "Max6."

What is that? There is no footnote at all lol

At any rate, cargo space to me and to the SAE is basically folding the 2nd and 3rd rows and measuring usable cargo space (not adding the glovebox and a cubby and spare tire area).

Went to the Acura website and it had the footnote:

[6] Based on SAE J1100 cargo volume measurement standard plus, where applicable, floor space between seating rows and seats in their forward-most and upright position.

The sad part is to fall for tricks. I think it's only natural that as we get older, we will. Hang on to common sense, folks.
