The Alfa Romeo Gtv has 7 cu ft of cargo space. In practice that is 1 checked suitcases, or 3 carry-ons, or about 5 supermarket bags. A folded pushchair will not fit alongside luggage.
What actually fits in a Gtv
Cubic feet are an abstraction — 7 cu ft means nothing until you load it. Here is the same number in things people actually load, 1 checked cases or 3 carry-ons for the Alfa Romeo Gtv, with a packing allowance — a boot is not a cube, and corners go to waste.
| What you are loading | How many fit | Each item |
|---|---|---|
| Checked suitcases | 1 | 27 × 21 × 14″ — 4.6 cu ft |
| Carry-on cases | 3 | 22 × 14 × 9″ — 1.6 cu ft |
| Supermarket bags | 5 | about 1 cu ft each |
| Golf bags | 1 | full set, about 5 cu ft |
| Folded pushchair | Does not fit | about 6 cu ft |
Counts assume 80% usable volume: luggage does not tessellate, and a wheel arch eats the rest.
Cars with the same room
Closest matches by load volume with the seats folded — useful when the boot is the deciding factor and the badge is not. The Alfa Romeo Gtv sits at 7 cu ft, so these are the cars that carry the same load.
| Car | Load volume | vs Alfa Romeo Gtv | Checked suitcases | Measured |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Suzuki Forsa | +1 cu ft | 1 | 1988 | |
| Chevrolet Chevette | +3 cu ft | 1 | 1987 | |
| Dodge Conquest | +3 cu ft | 1 | 1989 | |
| Mitsubishi Starion | +3 cu ft | 1 | 1989 | |
| Toyota Starlet | +3 cu ft | 1 | 1984 | |
| Porsche 924 | +5 cu ft | 2 | 1988 |

How we count
Cargo and passenger volumes come from EPA interior-volume records — the same figures manufacturers file for the window sticker, measured to a standard method rather than claimed in a brochure.
The luggage counts are ours — 1 checked cases for the Alfa Romeo Gtv come out of its 7 cu ft. We assume 80% usable volume, because a boot is not a cube: wheel arches, a sloping tailgate and the shape of the cases themselves waste the rest, which is why the Alfa Romeo Gtv counts as 5.6 cu ft of usable space rather than 7. Suitcase sizes are the airline standards — 22 × 14 × 9″ for carry-on, 27 × 21 × 14″ for checked, so the Alfa Romeo Gtv takes 3 of the small ones. Numbers are deliberately conservative; if we say four cases fit, four cases fit.
Frequently asked questions

7 cu ft behind the rear seats, plus 0 cu ft of passenger cabin.

About 1 checked cases (27 × 21 × 14″) or 3 carry-ons, allowing for the fact that a boot is not a perfect cube.
Will a pushchair fit in a Gtv?
Not comfortably. A folded pushchair needs about 6 cu ft and this car offers 7 in total, so it would fill the boot entirely.
