All About Sedan Cars

Sedans (sometimes referred to as Saloons) is the ideal car for multiple passengers to enjoy optimal space. They are often compared to SUVs except they vary in the number of seats, size and separation of compartments. Here’s are further explanations and examples of Sedans. 

For the most part, a sedan is an automobile that has a three-box configuration with pillars A, B and C. Sedans are also composed of three major compartments; cargo, passenger and an engine. The passenger compartments include two rows of seating suitable for even adults. Cargo compartments are found at the back because Sedans tend to have engines in the rear.
