Cargo

Mazda has done a nice job arranging the CX-7's cargo area. The space measures 29.9 cubic feet with the backseat up and 58.6 cubic feet when it's folded, but perhaps more importantly, the few intrusions there — like bump-outs along the cargo walls — are mostly tucked out of the way.

Folding the backseat is a simple process you can manage from the cargo area thanks to handles in the walls. Pulling a handle releases a backrest section, or you can release them from the second row by pressing a button on the backrest and folding down. When folded, the backrests are nearly flat with the cargo floor, resting on just a slight incline.
