Too Afraid to Ask

Cubic feet is a way to measure volume—basically how much space there is. Here it’s used to compare how much luggage the Cherokee can hold versus other SUVs.

Technical Definition

Cubic feet is a volume measurement used for cargo capacity in the U.S. market. When the host says the Cherokee is down by “three to six cubic feet,” they’re translating that into how much additional luggage volume the competitors can carry.
