Gen 3 vs Gen 4 Cargo Capacity Comparison (Video)

Lost in translation? So what's the bottom line?
Gen3 you get 3-golf bags and a 1-spare tire; Gen4 you get 3 golf bags and 0-spare tire?

EDIT: I assume it is the no-spare Gen4 option being shown

 

and both have the lower rear window blocked.
The Gen4 might have a spare, though.

 

I notice the steering wheel is on the correct side on those Priuses

 

Three golf bags will go into both cars, resolved. Then there's:

Uneven hatch floor, not so good if you're sliding in big boxes, need even bearing under flat screen tv or similar. No underfloor storage tray (that was a treasure trove). Two glove boxes becomes one chintzy one, dictated by dash "sculpture". Centre console storage becomes smart phone charging cradle.

 

No charging cradle on mine. That is only on some trim levels. My console is matte black too, not "white china".

 

You have to laugh! Some people buy a car without a spare wheel and then cry cause it's got no spare. The mind boggles.

 

...forgot to mention, Gen3 also has a 3-ft3 cubby space under the floor.

 

those must be japanese golf clubs, i have to take my woods out of the bag to fit them in.
can we get a prime here?

 

I'll must admit the Gen4 is going to look better in the Golf joint parking lot.
Gee I haven't swung a club since we moved from New Jersey in 2000.

 

i'm sadly looking at the reality that the head gasket on my 2011 means walk away. I love the cargo space in that car. I was thinking gen4. Is there no spare tire, or cargo tray under the floor in the hatch? how was the cargo space different?

 

the tray is gone, but some models have a spare, and others can be added.

 

have you considered a corolla hatch?

corollahatchback

 

no, didn't know that was a thing! But I am looking at it now.
Thank you!

 

Makes you think twice about a car company who's spare tire is an add-on...
Time to rethink my 24 years w/toyota...

 

unfortunately, a lot og them are doing it to cut costs. what gets my wand in a knot is that they don't even offer a kit with tyre and jack, you have to source everything yourself

 

Errr

 

exactly

 

Some gen 4's still have the spare, the lower levels, surprisingly. With top-of-line you get the "tire repair kit".
