Coupe vs. Sedan: What’s the Difference?

Coupe vs. Sedan: What’s the Difference?

Orangeville drivers have probably wondered about whether the difference between a coupe and a sedan comes down to more than looks. Yes, the most fundamental feature differentiating a sedan vs. a coupe is that sedans have four doors, whereas coupes have two. That said, sedans and coupes tend to feature more differences than that distinction. Read on for a more detailed account of what these styles don’t share, and then fill out a pre-approval and test drive them both at Mercedes-Benz Brampton.

Difference Between Coupe and Sedan

Caledon drivers looking to compare coupe vs. sedan will be surprised by just how many differences there are between these two body styles.

  • Door Count: As we mentioned, coupes feature two doors and sedans feature four doors.
  • Exterior Style: Coupes are shorter than sedans, have longer rear windows, longer doors, and rounder curves. Sedans, on the other hand, have a more balanced and less sporty profile.
  • Performance: Since coupes are smarter, their body styles are optimized for sportier acceleration on Georgetown streets. Sedans, however, often feature a wider range of engine options and suspension upgrades.
  • Cargo Space: Sedans are longer by design so they naturally offer more cargo space. If cargo space is a priority, a coupe may not be the way to go.

Sedan vs. Coupe: Which is for Me?

If you’re looking for something sportier and you don’t mind sacrificing some cargo room and back passenger space for a more winnowed frame, a coupe is the way to go. If you have a family and you’re looking for something with a more spacious cabin, we recommend going with a sedan.
