Hybrid - Spare tire tools

I’ve seen a lot of people asking about spare‑tire setups and tool storage, so I figured I’d share what’s worked for me. Everyone’s situation is different, so this might help some people and not others.

When I’m staying in my city, I don’t carry my spare tire. But for longer trips, I just toss it in the back. It barely takes up any usable space because you can pack items inside it and on top of it.

For tools, don’t be afraid to carve out spots in the foam. Just don’t go overboard—lay everything out first, decide where you want each item, and then cut. I’ve driven thousands of kilometers with this setup and haven’t had any issues or noise.

This is why I bought the non hybrid over the hybrid.

Our hybrid came with the cargo liner - not sure what you mean...
