C6 FAQ Master

Default Fingers crossed it'll hold this much!

Headed South from Atlanta to Pensacola... With a large piece of luggage and miscellaneous necessities (cooler, two beach chairs, hats, shoes, and a couple dozen loose items.)

Fingers crossed my new C8 will hold this much in the frunk\trunk!

It'll fit alright. You just won't be able to get in and drive it.

Some of the disparity has to do with the standard way in which capacity is measured, using rectangular boxes of a set size. The irregular shape of the C8's trunk means fewer boxes will fit. Soft luggage is different, though. The custom luggage set designed for the C7 WILL fit in the C8's two trunks.
