The U.S. News editors focused on hatchbacks since they typically surpass their sedan counterparts when it comes to space. After evaluating cargo space of hatchbacks on the market, the U.S. News’ editors whittled the vehicles into a 10 best list, putting the LEAF in its number 5 spot.
The 2020 Nissan LEAF, which is available at two trim levels (S and SV), boasts a maximum cargo space of 30 cubic feet with the rear seats folded. With the rear seats up, the LEAF has 23.6 cubic feet of space. The standard 60/40 split fold-down rear seats in the LEAF allow you to customize space for your passengers and cargo.
But, it is not just cargo space that makes hatchbacks a desirable and versatile option.
“The LEAF features eager acceleration, composed handling, and intuitive technology. It has impressive passenger space in both rows and a large cargo area behind its rear seats,” notes Steven Loveday from U.S. News.
