Featured Dashboard summary December 2016

Um, nah, not with reduced trunk size and no pass through. I've brought home 8ft. piece of 2x4, pole pruner/saw, etc, etc ... in my 05' sedan. To need a 2nd vehicle or rent a truck to do so would be a pita.

 

true, but which hybrid sedan is roomier?

btw, nice to see you cd!

 

I recall the Fusion Hybrid having a fold down rear seat / pass through. Fusion Hybrid sales went up 36% in 2016 over 2015. 10% market share. Not bad. I wonder if the added trunk flexibility makes it attractive. It's one of the very few sales winners in 2016.

idk, 3500 fusions vs 3100 accords. not bad for their first year back.

 

Ok, that's one month's sales, but if it holds up, will be a good year.

 

The Malibu and upper trim Sonata hybrids have a full 60/40 folding seat. IIRC, the Mailbu trunk floor is a couple inches higher than the seat backs when folded, and the Sonata cargo floor is flat. They lose the spare tire though.
