LUGGAGE space in the Barina is on a par with its compact rivals - load volume is 260 litres, increasing to 1060 litres when the 60/40 split-fold rear seat is put into action. Doing this increases floor depth from 640mm to about 1300mm, depending on the front seat position. Maximum floor width is 1100mm, reducing to 1000mm between the rear suspension towers. The cargo floor is carpeted and has a couple of shopping bag hooks as well as luggage straps to tie down small objects - a legacy of European-spec cars that are required to have safety features such as a tool kit and warning triangle fitted.
