Why are fewer people buying station wagons now?

A station wagon, as its name implies, is a kind of car used for traveling. It has a large volume and a long body, and can hold a lot of things. Many people like go on road trip when traveling, and it is a very pleasant experience to bring their family and friends with them. But why are fewer people buying station wagons now? I think there are several main reasons.

first, the practicality of the station wagon.

nowadays, people usually buy cars for home or business, and few people buy a car specifically for traveling. Like a station wagon, its appearance will be longer, which is not in line with the aesthetics of China people. Station wagons will be more popular in some European and American countries. And a car of this size will be more difficult to stop when parking. In addition, the roads in the city are not suitable for this kind of car. Most people will consider the practicality of the car when buying a car. After all, buying a car is not buying food, and it takes many years to buy it back.

second, the value-preserving function of the automobile.

Many young people are not only thinking about the present, but hope that they can sell and buy a new car after driving for a while. The sales of station wagons are relatively small, and it is difficult to sell them if they are used for sale. Modern people have a fast pace of work and life, and basically there is no time for long trips. Even if they want to travel, ordinary cars are enough. If there are many people traveling together, they will choose public transportation such as high-speed rail and plane.

Generally speaking, if I am a car buyer, I will first ensure the most basic function of the car, that is, the transportation function of picking up and dropping off children at work. On this basis, I will choose a car or suv, and then you have to consider the appearance and fuel consumption of the car, which depends on your preferences. Ordinary Chinese people are not particularly receptive to station wagons, and they may think that station wagons are rather tasteless. In daily life, commuting in station wagons will be somewhat overqualified. If it is a commercial situation, driving a station wagon is not solemn enough.
