How to Read These Numbers
"Cargo behind the last row" is the number that matters most for everyday grocery runs and luggage — it's what's left over with every seat in use. "Max cargo" is the ceiling with rear seats folded flat, useful for a big Costco run or moving a piece of furniture, but not a number you'll use on a normal day. The gap between those two figures is largest on the Yukon and Enclave, since folding a full third row opens up dramatically more room than a two-row model has to offer in the first place.
For a broader look at how these six models compare on overall size and seating, not just cargo, see our Buick & GMC SUV size and seating comparison. And if the full-size Yukon's cargo room specifically is what you're after, our Yukon cargo space guide breaks it down in more detail, including behind-second-row figures.
What Changes These Numbers
- Third-row presence is the biggest swing factor. Every two-row model in this table has meaningfully more cargo room behind its last row than the three-row models, simply because there's no third row eating into that space.
- Enclave and Yukon ranges are wide because of trim variation. Panoramic sunroofs, third-row configurations, and optional equipment can shift these numbers by a meaningful margin within the same model.
- Numbers on a spec sheet don't always match how gear actually packs. Irregularly shaped items like strollers or golf bags don't fill cargo space as efficiently as the cubic-foot rating suggests — it's worth booking a VIP test drive and loading your actual gear rather than trusting the number alone.

Cargo specs only tell part of the story — the fastest way to know whether a model actually fits your stroller, golf bags, or weekend gear is to load it in yourself.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much cargo space does the GMC Acadia have?
With all three rows in use, the Acadia offers roughly 12–14 cubic feet behind the third row. Folding the second and third rows flat opens that up to approximately 78–80 cubic feet.
What are the Buick Enclave's trunk dimensions?
The Enclave offers approximately 18–23 cubic feet behind the third row depending on configuration, expanding to roughly 82–97 cubic feet with the rear seats folded flat.
Which Buick or GMC SUV has the most cargo room?
The GMC Yukon offers the most cargo room in the lineup, both behind its third row and with seats folded, owing to its full-size body versus the midsize Acadia and Enclave.
