thats a typo in the brochure, the seat does not remove. It can be physically unbolted and removed but it is not removable like in a minivan.

 

here is the pic from that site

and then you have your picture posted :D

 

Here are some measurements.

Rear opening at widest points: 45.75" wide x 35" high

Distance between rear strut towers: 38"

Distance from closed hatch to back of front seats with seats all the way forward: 63.5"

Distance from closed hatch to back of front seats with seats all the way back: 57"

Distance from roof to folded rear seats: 33"

Distance from closed hatch to the back of the passenger side dash cubby: 98"

Distance from closed hatch to the closest part of the dash: 93"


Or you could go to a dealer and see for yourselff. They won't bite.

 

Thanks for the great picture and specs.

Does the xB have any "hooks" or "tie downs" to secure cargo?

 

Not really.

The xB is a roomy people hauler, not an all-my-____ hauler.

There are two small loops (about 1/2" diameter) on each side of the rear compartment. They're for attaching the cargo cover or cargo net. You can loop things around the front seat supports. And I suppose you could snap onto the child seat anchor points.

 

Anyone know the specs on the rear cargo area ... e.g. distance from rear hatch to back of rear seat in the upright position (not folded down)?

 

From hatch to top or rear seat: about 18"

From hatch to bottom of rear seat: about 22"

Now, first thing tomorrow, go down to the dealer and look at the thing yourself instead of asking.

 

I'll check the xB's out my next day off. Probably buy one if I can get a decent trade in on my 2 mo old Corolla.
