The trunk size depends on the body style: the four-door sedan offers about 15.8 cubic feet (448 liters) of trunk space, while the two-door coupe provides about 13.7 cubic feet (388 liters).
Trunk Capacity by Body Style
Below are the official trunk volumes cited for the 2011 Accord, measured with the rear seats up and in standard configuration.
- Sedan (four-door): approximately 15.8 cubic feet (448 liters).
- Coupe (two-door): approximately 13.7 cubic feet (388 liters).
Note that the actual usable space can vary slightly based on trim level, optional equipment such as a spare tire, and whether a cargo cover is installed.
Rear Seats and Cargo Versatility
Most 2011 Accord trims include a folding rear seat (commonly a 60/40 split) that expands cargo area when carrying longer items. This increases practical storage beyond the trunk’s base capacity, though the space gained depends on the item shape and how the seats are configured.
Practical Considerations
In daily use, the sedan’s larger trunk typically makes it a better choice for travelers and families needing to haul several suitcases or groceries. The coupe prioritizes style and sportier dynamics, with a smaller trunk but still usable for many everyday items. Loading openings and interior arrangement can affect what fits in practice, and items with unusual dimensions may require folding the rear seats.
Summary
The 2011 Honda Accord offers about 15.8 cubic feet of trunk space in the sedan and about 13.7 cubic feet in the coupe, with fold-down rear seats providing additional cargo flexibility when needed.
