Default Storage capacity difference between a Chevy 190 Popular to a Sprinter Agile

Hi
I have had a Chevy 190 Popular for 10+ years, considering an Agile. From pictures it looks like it has less storage space to what I am used to.
Anyone have experience with this?
Thank you 👍

With a Sprinter you have zero outside storage. (same with a Promaster)

As to interior, I would check out the brochures on the Roadtrek site to compare. That should give you some idea.

The other loss is the ease of finding service for the Chevy versus the Sprinter.

I have a 1997 Dodge Popular, with lots of storage. Back in 2018, I checked out the new Promaster, and was shocked at the lack of storage. I couldn't see shelling out $100,000 for weekend only type of camper. I drove my antique RV on a 10,000 mile loop around the mainland USA.

At least some old Roadtrek sprinters have a storage area under the backseat that is only really accessible through the back doors. I don't have any idea how they compare to the Chevy versions, but our sprinter Roadtrek has a lot of overhead storage as well as a small amount under the counter and a wardrobe. The Agile online looks very similar.

That’s the builder's fault, not PM. We could live full-time in our self-build 136” PM. We recently saw a professional build on the 159EXT, more than 3 feet longer than ours, but with less storage.

Exactly. I should have mentioned it was a Roadtrek. There was no way I could be on the road for an extended trip with the storage that was available in the newer one.
