Interior E70 Dimensions?

[Chris Dotur]

I haven't seen anywhere that E70 dimensions have been posted. (interior or exterior, but specifically I'm most interested in 2nd row, cargo, and tailgate opening dimensions) Anywhere that has this info?

One of the things I'm wondering is if the cargo area and tailgate opening is 4' wide, as many items stored in larger vehicles are that wide.

Thanks, Chris

Much thanks, that helps, and I can probably convert all measurements to US.

Anyone have US specs? How about dimensions of the cargo hatch opening?

multiply metric millimeters by .03937 = inches

Those would be very small inches.

do the math, 998mm x .03937 = 39" head room

inches X 25.4 = mm

over 27yrs of converting dwg dims back'n'forth for CAD/CAM machining programming + a BS math degree

Ahh, so you must've missed out on the humor classes then.

15 years managing people who convert dwg dims back'n'forth for CAD + a second BA in english which allows me to chuckle when people phrase things in a funny way.
