This is especially true if you don’t have a family to cart around, or if said family has a separate SUV at home. The fact is that many buyers rarely use the back seat of their car. If you’re driving a new closed coupe today, it’s likely a luxury brand:Ĭould this body style pick up on some of those brand’s glamor by adding a ‘halo’ vehicle to a more pedestrian car model? It could be worth a shot. Source: Mecum, Consumer Guide, GM AuthorityĮventually with changing tastes the market for two doors slowly evaporated until it was almost gone by around the year 2000. Practicality was compromised a bit with the longer doors, but not horribly so. These were just run-of-the-mill sedans with two less doors and slightly flashier styling, but they sold like crazy. Here’s a body style that was everywhere in the seventies, particularly ‘personal luxury’ coupes like Cutlasses and Monte Carlos. At some point, if a manufacturer offered something that stood out, it might be at least a minor success. What is worse is that it is increasingly difficult to tell a Maserati crossover from an Alfa crossover from a Genesis from even less expensive examples. Looking out the window now, this type of car fills virtually every space at my office.
One undeniable fact is that there are a lot of four door crossovers out there. It’s really just a quest for something different, even if it was done before. I never thought we would see root beer brown or orange cars reappear, but here we are again like it’s the early seventies.
History does tend to repeat itself, in the most improbably ways.
