Sedan is the American term for the British saloon, referring to a car with a three-box configuration, three sections for engine, passenger and cargo.
A classic sedan would be a light-blue 1962 Chevrolet Impala. The word sedan comes from sedan chair, the old-fashioned automobile powered by humans rather than engines. A palanquin is similar to a sedan chair, carried using four poles.
A modern sedan would be the BMW M5.
