What is the standard width size for sedan cars?
2 Answers
The general width of a sedan car is around 1.8 meters. Sedans can be categorized into the following lengths: 1. Mini cars: Typically refers to models with a wheelbase below 2400mm. 2. Small cars: Usually refers to models with a wheelbase between 2400-2550mm. 3. Compact cars: Generally refers to models with a wheelbase between 2550-2700mm, and this category is the mainstream for family sedans. 4. Mid-size cars: Typically refers to models with a wheelbase between 2700-2850mm, and this category usually serves both family and business purposes.
I think there's no absolute standard for sedan width, most are between 1.8 to 1.9 meters. I've driven many cars, like the Toyota Corolla which is about 1.78 meters wide, similar to the Honda Civic - great for city driving and easy parking. Wider vehicles like some midsize SUVs such as the Honda CR-V at 1.86 meters offer more comfort, especially for long trips with greater legroom. Different countries have regulations too - European rules generally limit width to under 2 meters, so most family cars stay within this range. When choosing a car, consider your needs: narrower models save fuel and park easier but sacrifice space; wider ones are more comfortable but may struggle in tight old-town streets. Always check official specifications as brands vary significantly - don't rely on assumptions, actual driving experience matters most.
