Those of you with long memories will remember that one my first posts here, way back in Twenty Aught Seventeen, was a defense of sedans.
I may have been wrong — Nissan is the latest OEM to reduce its amount of available sedan models. This is the same brand that once touted sedans to us assembled media during a press launch.
I, being a stubborn sort, still believe the sedan won't totally die. I think there's a market for luxury sedans, and I believe certain mainstream sedans will still sell to those who don't want or need a crossover. The Honda Accord and Camry will be around for a long time. I also think sports sedans will continue.
Who knows? Maybe today's children will reject their parent's automotive choices the way Gen Xers rejected station wagons and Millennials looked askance at minivans. Maybe sedans will come back.
Or maybe the latest Nissan news means we're now living in a crossover world for good.
What say you? Sound off below.
