CX-5 size and specifications

I'm very interested in the 6MT CX-5. Car and Driver report this:

DIMENSIONS:
Wheelbase: 106.3 in
Length: 178.7 in
Width: 72.4 in Height: 65.7 in
Curb weight (C/D est): 3300 lb

What surprised me was: "...backrests are also configured with a 40/20/40-split arrangement to accommodate long or bulky cargo. All three portions can be released from the 17-cubic-foot cargo hold, which also offers some underfloor stash space."

17 cu ft seems awfully small. I wonder if that's an error? In the picture the space looks larger than that.
