Default IS250 Trunk Space

Can the IS250 truck accommodate 2 sets of golf clubs?

Yes, you might actually be able to fit three sets depending on the types of bags you have.

Shouldn't be a problem. Although it might be a tight fit.

I was surprised at how much the trunk can carry.... I managed to sandwich 2 regular size suitcases in the trunk... however im very disapointed they didnt make me a snowboard pass through...

I second that! I was forced to buy the Lexus IS racks to accommodate my snowboards and surfboards. Lexus should have an option for folding rear seats like BMW has!

im no mathematician, but i believe the trunk space is 13 cubic feet. so it might be able to fit, one might have to go in the back seat

I have been able to fit 4 sets of golf clubs in my is250 trunk. Its a tight squeeze, but definitely possible because i've done it many times. if you criss-cross 2 sets of clubs in the trunk closest to the front of the car (like an X) then lay 2 sets on top of each other closest to the rear of the car, you can fit four. They are normal bags, meant for walking...not the huge bags meant for carts only, but it's still 4 bags of clubs.

Ah, you beat me to the golf club trick of the criss cross method (LOL).

Take out your drivers and woods first. Then place the bags in and then the drivers and woods on top or in between the clubs and the front of the trunk. It works for me.

the f-sport springs in original box.
large suitcase
medium sized suitcase
2 large vera bags stuffed(size of smaller suitcases) and random things
