The Dodge Stealth has 11 cu ft of cargo space. In practice that is 1 checked suitcases, or 5 carry-ons, or about 8 supermarket bags. A folded pushchair fits. Against 56 cars with a similar-sized cabin it sits below the average of 15.2 cu ft.
What actually fits in a Stealth
Cubic feet are an abstraction — 11 cu ft means nothing until you load it. Here is the same number in things people actually load, 1 checked cases or 5 carry-ons for the Dodge Stealth, 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 | 5 | 22 × 14 × 9″ — 1.6 cu ft |
| Supermarket bags | 8 | about 1 cu ft each |
| Golf bags | 1 | full set, about 5 cu ft |
| Folded pushchair | Fits | about 6 cu ft |
Counts assume 80% usable volume: luggage does not tessellate, and a wheel arch eats the rest.
Cabin or boot — where the space went
Every car is a fixed envelope, and designers decide how to split it between people and things — the Dodge Stealth gives 11.8% of its 93 cu ft to luggage. The share below is the honest way to compare an estate with a coupé of the same footprint, and among 56 cars with a cabin within eight cubic feet of the Dodge Stealth the boot averages 15.2 cu ft.
| Space | Volume | Share of total |
|---|---|---|
| Passenger cabin | 82 cu ft | |
| Cargo area | 11 cu ft | |
| Total interior | 93 cu ft |
Under 15% to luggage — the space went to passengers, not their bags.
Against cars with a similar cabin
Compared with 56 models whose passenger space is within eight cubic feet — a fairer group than marketing classes, which put an estate and a coupé in the same bracket.
| Measure | This car | Similar cars | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cargo volume | 11 cu ft | 15.2 cu ft | -4.2 cu ft |
| In checked suitcases | 1 | 2 | -1 |
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 Dodge Stealth sits at 11 cu ft, so these are the cars that carry the same load.
| Car | Load volume | vs Dodge Stealth | Checked suitcases | Measured |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nissan 300ZX | +1 cu ft | 2 | 1996 | |
| Ford Festiva | +1 cu ft | 2 | 1993 | |
| Isuzu IMPULSE | +1 cu ft | 2 | 1993 | |
| Subaru Justy | -1 cu ft | 1 | 1994 | |
| Daewoo LANOS | +1 cu ft | 2 | 2002 | |
| Toyota Supra | -1 cu ft | 1 | 1998 |

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 Dodge Stealth come out of its 11 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 Dodge Stealth counts as 8.8 cu ft of usable space rather than 11. Suitcase sizes are the airline standards — 22 × 14 × 9″ for carry-on, 27 × 21 × 14″ for checked, so the Dodge Stealth takes 5 of the small ones. Numbers are deliberately conservative; if we say four cases fit, four cases fit.
