   Minivans come loaded with crash-avoidance and crash-protection technology, and their generous size gives extra security in the event of a crash. Station wagons, though, add an extra degree of crash prevention: They’re smaller, which means they can swerve more easily to avoid a potential collision.

   • Sports Car. The sports car segment is in a gray area without a hard-and-fast definition. Once upon a time, you only referred to a two-seat convertible — like the Mazda MX-5 Miata and the BMW Z4 — as a sports car.
   • Hatchback. Typically, hatchbacks are smaller (subcompact or compact) with four passenger doors plus a fifth door on the back in place of a trunk lid. We’d lump the Subaru Impreza 5-Door, Hyundai Ioniq 5, and Volkswagen Golf GTI into this group.
   • Coupe. Coupes come in every size, from compact to full size. Historically, a coupe is a 2-door car with a hard roof and a backseat. For example, the Chevy Camaro, Dodge Challenger, Infiniti Q60, and Audi A5 fit into this mold.
   • Sedan. There isn’t much ambiguity in the definition of a sedan. It has always been a 4-door hardtop with two rows of seats and a trunk. Although there are fewer and fewer sedans on the market, they continue to populate subcompact, compact, midsize, and full-size categories.
