2001 Subaru Traviq Dimensions, Size & Specs

The curb weight of the Subaru Traviq is 1460 kg (3221 lbs), which refers to the vehicle's weight without passengers or cargo but with all necessary fluids and a full tank of fuel. Its maximum weight capacity, indicating the total allowed weight including passengers, cargo, and the vehicle itself, is 2000 kg (4409 lbs). This capacity ensures adequate load handling for typical family and cargo use.

The Subaru Traviq offers a modest luggage capacity of 150 liters (5.3 cubic feet) when all rear seats are in place, suitable for everyday errands and small items. When the rear seats are folded down, the luggage space expands significantly to 1700 liters (60 cubic feet), providing ample room for larger cargo, making it versatile for family trips and transporting bulky items.

A standard garage typically measures around 2400 mm (94.5 inches) in width and 4800 mm (189 inches) in length. The Subaru Traviq's width of 1740 mm (68.5 inches) and length of 4315 mm (169.9 inches) comfortably fit within these dimensions. Therefore, the Traviq can easily fit into a standard garage without issues, leaving sufficient space around it for easy access and storage of additional items.

The Subaru Traviq comes equipped with tires sized 195/65 R15. This size combines a tire width of 195 mm (7.7 inches) with a sidewall height that is 65% of the tire width and fits 15-inch diameter wheels. These tires offer a good balance between ride comfort, grip, and fuel efficiency, contributing to stable handling and a smooth driving experience typical of a compact minivan.

Compared to other compact minivans from the early 2000s, the Subaru Traviq is slightly smaller in length and width, making it more suitable for drivers seeking easier urban maneuverability. While many competitors offer larger cargo volumes without seat folding, the Traviq shines with its expansive rear seat folded space of 1700 liters (60 cubic feet), giving it a practical edge for versatile cargo needs despite its smaller footprint.

The Subaru Traviq does not have a direct predecessor under the same nameplate, as it was Subaru's entry into a compact minivan segment around 2001. However, compared to older Subaru models like the Subaru Justy (a subcompact hatchback), the Traviq provides greater interior space, higher roofline, and more cargo flexibility, marking a significant shift towards accommodating family and utility-oriented needs.

With its height of 1630 mm (64.2 inches) and wide cabin, the Subaru Traviq offers a comfortable interior environment for families. The seating layout and generous luggage space with rear seats folded make it suitable for families needing both passenger space and cargo versatility. Although its luggage space with seats up is limited, the option to fold seats to expand cargo capacity greatly adds to its functionality for family use.

Though exact fuel economy figures can vary based on engine and market, the Subaru Traviq’s compact size and curb weight of 1460 kg (3221 lbs) generally contribute to reasonable fuel consumption for a minivan of its class. Its moderate weight combined with aerodynamic design and appropriately-sized tires typify efficiency that balances power needs with practical economy for daily commuting and family trips.

At 1630 mm (64.2 inches) tall, the Subaru Traviq offers ample headroom for most passengers, enhancing overall comfort during travel. The relatively high roofline typical of minivans facilitates easier ingress and egress, especially for families with children or elderly passengers. This height also allows for a more upright seating position, improving visibility and reducing fatigue on longer journeys.
