2) " Sedan" -- As it applies to Saab Sedan This article is about the type of car. For other uses of Setan , see Sedan (disambiguation) This Mercedes-Benz 450SEL6.9 is a typical Seden . A sedan car, American English terminology, is one of themost common configurations of the modern automobile, having a usually four-doorpassenger compartment between the lower hood – covering the engine in the front, and the lower trunk at therear. In British English the configuration is called a saloon andhas its engine under the bonnet at the front, and a boot for luggage at the rear. In Australia and NewZealand, the American term is now used, albeit with the British terms of boot and bonnet being retained. Inother languages Sedaj s are known as Limousine ( German ), Berline ( French ), Berlina ( Italian ). Saloon bodystyles on smaller cars are now less popular after the revolution of the hatchback during the 1970's, although many hatchbacks also form the basis of saloons. The first major Europeanmanufacturer to phase out saloons in favour of hatchbacks was Renault, who invented the hatchback (16) in 1965. Citroen has notmade any saloons since the 2CV ceased production in 1990. But saloon bodystyles are still used on almost all large cars.
