Understanding Used Car Body Styles

With our diverse selection of used cars for sale, it can be challenging to decide where to start. We recommend starting with your preferred body style that meets your must-haves. MileOne Autogroup is highlighting our available body styles to illustrate their key differences. 

Coupe 

Although not always, coupes are typically the smallest vehicles in a lineup. They're usually two-door cars and are characterized by their sloping roofline and three-box design (which means separate compartments for the engine, cabin, and trunk). The Lexus RC is a sporty two-door coupe.  

Sedan 

You'll get extra space out of a sedan, which is usually a four-door car. The efficient passenger cars also have a three-box design. Sedans can range in size, with options such as the compact Honda Civic, a midsize Honda Accord, or a full-size model.  

Hatchback 

A hatchback is also a type of car, although it features a two-box design. Instead of a separate cabin and trunk, the cabin also includes a cargo area, which can be accessed by a rear door that lifts upward. The Toyota Prius is an excellent example of a versatile hatchback.  

SUV  

A Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) also features a combined passenger and cargo space. It has a body-on-frame construction, which helps to increase its capabilities and ground clearance. To make SUVs more efficient, many new EVs are SUVs, such as the Volkswagen ID.4.  

Truck  

You'll also get impressive capabilities and towing power out of a truck. They feature an open cargo bed, which is separate from the cabin. Trucks can range in size from a compact Ford Ranger to a full-size Ford F-150. You'll get even more power out of a heavy-duty truck or a Chassis Cab, which features an unfinished chassis instead of a standard bed.  

Minivan 

A minivan is a passenger van that has three rows of seating inside. The Chrysler Pacifica is an efficient minivan with seating for seven or eight. You can also opt for a larger passenger or cargo commercial van for your business needs from brands like RAM and Mercedes-Benz.
