Differences Between Station Wagons and Sedans?

[DiCole]

Traveling cars and sedans differ in the following ways: 1. Suspension: The rear suspension of a station wagon is generally stiffer, which may slightly reduce ride comfort compared to a sedan. 2. Sound insulation: Station wagons may have slightly inferior sound insulation because the cabin and trunk are connected, allowing rear wheel noise to enter. In terms of driving and riding experience, sedans usually perform better. 3. Space: Most station wagons are based on sedans but feature an extended rear compartment raised to the roof level to increase luggage space. Sedans have a lower trunk than the roof. Station wagons are suitable for long-distance travel with ample space to carry sufficient travel gear, whereas sedans have less space and storage capacity than station wagons. 4. Power: Station wagons are primarily designed for family travel, so they typically have greater torque than sedans.
