The battery takes up that space in the hybrid.

The battery is located in the trunk, and takes up a few inches.

hybrid's are the best for fuel so the weight displacement of the car has to be perfect 50:50Honda's are great cars for gas milage as well but they made it an everyone's car so you could pile anything in it. thats why its bigger. plus the batteries on the hybrid are in the truk so you dont want to pile just anything in the back of that car.
