Abstract

A vehicle includes a storage trench having a bottom surface and side surfaces. The bottom surface is recessed relative to a floor of the vehicle, a first side surface extends upwards from the bottom surface to the floor on a first side of the trench, and a second side surface extends upwards from the bottom surface to the floor on a second side of the trench. The trench extends between a first seat and a second seat of the vehicle, unobstructed from an occupant compartment to a storage compartment. The trench allows access from outside of the vehicle, for example, from either a forward or rearward storage compartment. An inset may be included along the bottom surface. The insert can be removed, by sliding for example, for cleaning or to help access stored gear. The trench is longer than either storage compartment, capable of storing relatively long gear or equipment.
