some people said the sedan cargo capacity is bigger...
i really don't get it... is it true...? (toyota.ca says bigger for sedan)
well, i understand sedan has bigger trunk... because of it's longer tail...
but with the rear seats down... isn't liftback should have more cargo space than sedan... or am i wrong...???

i like liftback better because i assumed liftback has more cargo room...
now i see sedan getting more beautiful pictures taken... i'm afraid i'm drifting over to sedan...

For the hatch, you will have to lower the back seats to get bigger than sedan cargo capacity. That means when you gain cargo capacity, you lose passenger capacity at the same time. However, if it is that kind of flexibility that you want, the hatch should be good for you.

To me this is really the point. If you need to transport a few big boxes now and then, being able to fold the seats down is more important that the larger trunk space in the sedan. I don't see the point of the sedan -- at least for my needs, of course.
