Cars vs SUV's vs pickup trucks The car industry is a extremely vast. There are many different types of cars, for example: convertibles, coupes, sedans, hatchbacks, pickup trucks, SUV's and more. In 2019, sedans and coupes are gradually becoming obsolete and SUV's and pickup trucks are gaining popularity. Why is that? In this blogpost I will attempt to explain why this gradual shift to larger cars in America is a good thing for most people. Firstly, I will talk about fuel economy. If you wanted to buy a large SUV or a pickup truck in the late 1990's and early 2000's you had to be ready to pay a lot of money for gasoline.

But now, in 2019, many SUV's and pickups come with smaller 4 or 6 cylinder engines that, in some cases, have forced induction (turbochargers, superchargers) or hybrid technology, this makes them extremely economical compared to there V8 counterparts.
