For the longest time, sedans reigned as the number one vehicle choice among Americans. However, in recent years, we have seen the SUV and crossover take over the roads and replace the sedan as the number one choice. Although more people are choosing to upgrade to an SUV, a lot of people are choosing to stay with a smaller vehicle. On the other hand, some people also want more cargo space. This is where hatchback models are your friend. These models combined the cabin size and performance of a sedan with the cargo space of a small SUV or crossover model.
