Choosing between a sedan or an SUV is one of those decisions that is not easy to make. Let’s go through the pros and cons of a sedan vs. an SUV so you can weigh your options and decide for yourself.
Sedan: Pros
Sedans offer the following advantages:
– Your vehicle will have low ground clearance, making it easy to get in and out.
– Sedans roll over less frequently than other higher-up cars because they have a lower center of gravity.
– A sedan will be smaller than an SUV, making it often the less expensive choice. Most cars can still hold up to five passengers, though.
– Finally, compared to SUVs, sedans often have better fuel economy.
On to SUVs now.
SUV: Pros
Now let’s talk about some of the advantages SUVs offer. These include:
– Depending on the size of the vehicle, an SUV can seat five to nine people.
– SUVs are strong enough to tow large loads.
– You’ll have better visibility from the driver’s seat with higher seats.
– SUVs may sport a striking, athletic design that enthusiasts love.
– SUVs offer the safety features to assist you in navigating severe weather and can travel through many terrain types.
Each choice does, of course, have drawbacks.
Sedan: Cons
Even with the tried-and-true sedan, nothing is always as it seems. Think about these drawbacks before purchasing one.
– Sedans frequently lack the athletic, streamlined appearance found in some SUVs.
– They cannot tow or transport big objects.
– You might not be able to go off-roading in a sedan because of how low to the ground they are.
Your visibility from a sedan is limited if you have a low seat.
– Compared to an SUV, a sedan offers less cargo space.
Let’s take a look at some of the disadvantages of SUVs.
SUV: Cons
There are some problems with cool SUVs, too. They include:
– SUVs have a greater center of gravity than sedans, making them more prone to flip over.
– Large parking spaces and a larger garage are required for a larger car.
– SUVs often use more fuel and produce more CO2 than cars, which is terrible for the environment.
– SUVs often feel bumpier than sedans.
