The utility vehicle includes a floor pan defining a planer rear storage surface and left and right foot wells separated by a longitudinally extending drive shaft hump. The foot wells define inwardly tapered inner rear wheel wells. The wells each have a characteristic depth below the rear storage surface, a lateral width and a longitudinal length. The cargo management system includes left, right and center container portions, each having a base member including integrally formed floor and circumferentially arranged wall members nested within a foot well. The container portions each have a base member including integrally formed floor and wall members configured to be nested within a respective foot well.
