Should I Buy a Crossover or Sedan  
 

There are a few different types of vehicles that you can choose from when you’re in the market for something new. Sedans are often an affordable option that provides you with excellent comfort and class. The SUV became popular for those looking for more space and performance, but drivers started to scale back a bit to save money and reduce their carbon footprint. Carmakers responded with the crossover SUV, where you still have space and performance but in a smaller package. While the crossover is enjoying popularity, the sedan is still holding its own as well. Let’s take a closer look at the benefits of buying a sedan or crossover.

The Benefits of Sedans

Crossovers have been designed to be compact, but you still can’t get as compact as a sedan. If you’re looking for a vehicle that you’ll be able to navigate the roads with ease, a sedan is going to be hard to beat. It’s perfect for parking in tight spots, you get excellent fuel-efficiency ratings, and they’re lower to the ground. This is something that many drivers prefer.

Also, sedans provide you with excellent visibility. This adds to the overall safety of your vehicle. Most models that we sell on our lot are incredibly safe and packed with the latest and greatest safety features that are available. Lastly, if you’re working with a tight budget while trying to find a new vehicle, sedans tend to be more affordable. When you consider that sedans often have higher fuel-efficiency ratings and lower insurance costs, they seem like a no-brainer.

The Benefits of Crossovers

A crossover will be larger than a sedan, but this might be what you’re looking for. If your vehicle is the family automobile for the household, this larger size will be beneficial if you’re doing a lot of traveling around town with kids in tow. Road trips are also much easier when you’re in a crossover.

Depending on what crossover model you choose, you may be able to benefit from several off-roading capabilities. A lot of crossovers feature four-wheel drive and all-wheel drive. You also have better ground clearance.
