Sedans have always been a popular choice for drivers who don't need a lot of extra space in their vehicles and want to save money on fuel. Hatchbacks have quickly been gaining popularity as an alternative option, providing both space and fuel economy. Here are the top three reasons to buy a hatchback. more 1. Practicality Hatchbacks are more practical than sedans when it comes to configurations for cargo and passengers. Some of the smallest hatchbacks offer more space than midsize sedans regarding cargo. When you consider that many hatchbacks have a 60/40 split-folding rear seat, a hatchback becomes a cargo hauler quickly and easily. The split-folding rear seats offer Burns interior volume and the flexibility to carry a mix of people and cargo. With a hatchback, you get this ample interior space without adding exterior dimensions, making it both maneuverable and easy to handle. The hatchback design also allows for more headroom for rear passengers, making it more practical as a family vehicle than a sedan. The higher roofline also contributes to the ability to haul big, bulky items in the cargo area, but a bonus is the increased headroom. Thanks to that extra bit of space, adults and teens who sit in the back will be comfortable. 2. Visibility Hatchbacks tend to sit a little higher from the ground than sedans, offering a better line of visibility for the driver. The rear window is also set more upright, allowing the driver a better view from the rearview mirror. The hatchback design also provides more overall glass area, providing everyone with a better view of the road and their surroundings because of the bigger windows around you. Larger windows also allow you more visibility when parking your hatchback because you can see more of what's around you. 3. Style Hatchbacks offer a more distinctive design than sedans, causing more heads to turn as you pass others on the road. Hatchbacks have a sleek look, thanks to the shorter backend. Today's hatchbacks have fresh, modern styling to make even the base trim of any model eye-catching. Inside today's hatchbacks, you'll find a host of comfort and technology features that add to the style and design. Many of them offer a Wi-Fi hotspot, Bluetooth connectivity, navigation systems, USB ports, touch screens with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and multi-speaker premium audio systems. Comfort features such as leather seating, heated steering wheels, hands-free power liftgates, heated front seats, power-adjustable front seating, and even heated rear outboard seats make today's hatchbacks appealing.
