About this converter
Starfield ship cargo runs from 200 to 2660 mass units in this set. Mako, Longsword and Galileo each hold 200. Rambler and Vagabond hold 260. Frontier and Discovery hold 450. Privateer holds 710 and Endeavor holds 730. Celestial holds 1180. Big Rig holds 1940. Shieldbreaker holds 2280. Econohaul tops here at 2660. That makes one Econohaul equal over thirteen Mako holds. Cargo is the total mass of items the hold can carry per the Starfield Wiki ships guide. Values are base hull stats without Payloads skill or cargo module swaps.
How to use it
Pick two entries and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. One box holds a count of the first ship, one holds the matching count of the second, one holds total mass. Try Econohaul at 2660 against Mako at 200 for the widest gap, then Frontier against Discovery for a 450 tie. Only mass units are used here.
Rows pin base Class A and B hull cargo as listed by GamerGuides, Starfield Wiki and INARA. Level 2 and 3 variants such as Endeavor II at same 730 or Privateer III at 1055 sit out to keep one row per hull. Cargo module swaps like 100CM Ballast 210 and Galleon S204 1480 change built capacity after purchase and stay out. Shielded cargo amounts stay out. Bethesda never set a cargo mass unit to kilogram rate, so this page compares mass to mass with no kilogram conversion.
