Low cargo volume?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think something's off with Polestar's cargo volume numbers. They're way too low. I'm not sure how they came up with those numbers, but they don't make sense.

Models	Width	Depth	Height	Stated Cu. Ft. (Inc. Underfloor)	Calculated Volume (Exc. Underfloor)
P2	39.4	40.1	17.7	14.4	16.2
P3	43.7	40.1	26	17.1	26.4
P4	45.5	39	20.5	18.6	21.1

So the P4’s way wider, which makes total sense with its slick design and all. But to get roughly the same range as the last one, they had to slap on a way bigger battery.
Kinda funny, right? More battery, same distance. Go figure.

With the seats up, the P2 has 14.4 cubic feet of cargo space, which includes underfloor storage. However, the P3 definitely has more cargo space.

I’ve noticed that too! The cargo volume numbers for the Polestar 3 seem a bit conservative, likely because they’re measured with specific configurations or under different conditions. But in real life, it feels like there’s more usable space than the numbers suggest, especially with the rear seats folded down.

Sometimes the official cargo numbers don’t quite reflect the practical, everyday use of the space. The Polestar 3 definitely feels roomier than it appears on paper
