What is a Sedan? What is a Hatchback?

[OFaith]

Hatchbacks and sedans refer to the structure of a car. A sedan is a car structure divided into three parts: the engine compartment, the passenger compartment, and the trunk. Representative models of sedans include the Santana, Jetta, Hyundai, and others. A hatchback is a car structure divided into two parts: the engine compartment and the passenger compartment + trunk, where the passenger compartment and trunk are combined. Representative models of hatchbacks include SUVs, Fit, Jeep, Alto, and others. Additional information: 1. Advantages of hatchbacks: Good space capability. When the back seat is folded down, it forms a considerable loading space. The disadvantage of hatchbacks is their poor structural safety, as the trunk and passenger compartment are connected, eliminating the partition that could reinforce the body structure. 2. Advantages of sedans: They have an attractive appearance. There is a traditional Chinese belief that a car should 'have a head and a tail.' Hatchbacks lack a protruding trunk, giving the impression of 'no rear end.' The disadvantage of sedans is their limited trunk space and generally poor space expansion capability.
