5 Sedan Features for Used Cars

First, it's important to decide which size of a sedan you’re looking for: compact, midsize or full size. Each size can range in price based on whether you’re looking for an economy vehicle versus a luxury one and depending on how many special features you want to add.

Compact and midsize sedans fit up to four adults comfortably and full-size sedans can fit five adults or more. Sedans hold between 12 and 21 cubic feet of cargo and many offer rear folding seats.

Sedans are generally considered to be safe vehicles and many come with important features such as antilock brakes, front and side airbags and stability control. Modern sedans offer sensors to make parking and backing up safer.

Whether you’re running errands around town or dropping off the kids at their after school activities, sedans are economical for everyday use. Most sedans are more fuel-efficient and get better gas mileage than vans or sports utility vehicles.

Sedans are not as rugged as vans or sports utility vehicles but are heavier than sports cars, making them the ideal combination of dependability and efficiency. Most sedans perform well in dangerous road conditions caused by weather or construction and have a minimal carbon footprint compared to bigger vehicles. While some of the most popular used sedans today include the MAZDA3, Honda Accord, Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Malibu, sedans are available in countless models and styles. It is important to thoroughly research your options and shop around so you can find the ideal sedan for your needs and lifestyle.
