Cargo Room
As is the case in many large SUVs, despite having room for seven people in
its three rows, the GL leaves little room for luggage when all its seats are in
use; there's just 14.3 cubic feet behind the third row. There's some space
underneath the cargo floor, but it's only suitable for smaller things, like
jumper cables.

Manufacturer data
The GL has a standard power-operated third row, which is a great feature because it transforms what could be a cumbersome process of folding and opening the third row into a simple operation. It even works when the second row is reclined.
