In todays car scene, station wagons have a certain sense of luxury and class. A powerful engine for car enthusiasts to drool over, with enough room for the entire family. So what happened to the days of station wagons having that ulitimate Clark Griswold feel? What happened to the Queen Wagon Family Truckster? I am only kidding, but seriously, station wagons were once a staple of the american car industry. The were the SUV of their time, with sporty variants only few and far between, to now where the only wagons you really see are the sport variants. So What Happened to Station Wagons? Sit down with Alex right now and find out!

Station Wagons and Minivans both. People are using SUVs (which have their place) as Vans and Wagons. SUVs are Sport Utility Vehicles, not People Carriers. The Minivan is the People Carrier, and the Wagon is the Stuff Hauler. SUVs are meant to drive the line paining equipment out on the sports fields, that's what their for. But people use them as Minivans, People use them as Wagons... sigh... WHY!!!!!!! Not I can't see anything out of my little sport coupe because I'm surrounded by Fat! Rolling! Skyscrapers! Bring Back the Wagons! Bring Back the Minivans! Bring Back the Sport Sedans!

As someone from germany, it's quite surprising to me that wagons are somewhat of a rarity in the US nowadays. Here cars like the Passat, Golf Variant, A4 Avant, 3-Series touring or Skoda Octavia are very common, you'll see them everywhere. Even performance cars are often seen in their wagon Form, like the RS4, Panamera Sport Tourismo or E63s. My dad bought an RS6 last year and it's definitely cooler (and prettier) than any SUV on the market :D I wish Cadillac made a CT5-V Blackwing Wagon, so you guys in the US at least have one wagon

Well at least in Denmark, people got crazy with station wagons over the last 10 years. When Leasing cars began to be a thing every one suddenly needed a bigger family car. The floor price for station wagons are way cheaper than coupe/cap’s. And a bit cheaper than sedan even. It’s also cheaper to spec out station wagons. So company’s started max spec.ing cars and when they hit the used car-marked, they were a hit because cars in Denmark are usually base models. We used to import 1-2 year old cars from Germany, to get some more tec in the car for the same price as a new base model in Denmark.

Now I have a Mazdaspeed 3 and I had forgot how useful a hatchback is in general. The fun hatchbacks/wagons are the best dailies. Enough power to be an idiot while also having enough space to move around people and groceries easily.

I think they’re cool but where I live Pennsylvania the lack of ground clearance and stiffer ride is not really great unfortunately, if I was going to sacrifice comfort I would get a cheap suv for a daily and a real sports car for the weekends and I think that’s what fucks wagons over, they’re not good enough at any one thing as they’re too big/heavy to compete with a proper sports coupe and they’re too low and sporty to have a comfortable ride when the road gets rough.

@ Oh I don’t doubt that it’s good, but when I hit a massive pothole at 45-50 mph in my 8k SUV I don’t have to worry about bending my or damaging my splitter because my ride height is so much bigger, even if I might feel it more in my shitty suv. I mean an RS6 Avant as much as I love them would never have made it down the driveway at my previous house because it was super rocky and rutted out from erosion, not to mention long and steep). So as much as I prefer a wagon of an SUV there are some inherent advantages that an SUV has over a wagon unfortunately.

@ I mean here’s another example, the other night I was coming home from HS and as I crested a steep hill prolly going 45-50mph (sounds fast but thats actually the speed limit on this backroad since its all but straight) there was a tree down in my lane with maybe 15-20 feet in front of me. I had no time to stop so order to avoid smashing straight into it I veered into the other lane (thank god there were no other cars coming) but I still clipped a large branch that was sticking all the way across. Had I been in a station wagon I would have probably done some serious damage to either my splitter or my front bumper, but since I had the ground clearance and big tires of an SUV (I drive an 08 XTerra, currently saving for to import an AE111 Levin this summer🤞) I didn’t even get a flat, although I stopped to make sure of that before I kept driving, that’s how big the branch was.

My current project/daily is a Lexus IS200 SportCross wagon. Upgraded from the saloon. The fact the front passenger seat becames a table, sold it for me 😅...Not forgetting it makes for a fun drift missile given it comes in manual with an LSD and acres of space to put bolt in a supercharger or turbo 😁.

I think, wagons, sports wagons, station wagons, luxury wagons, hatchbacks, lift backs, hothatch, and pocket rocker hatchback needs a major comeback and bring the trend back. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 especially for Japanese auto makers, they make excellent vehicles when it comes to all types of wagons and all the types of hatchback.

I got myself a wagon as a first car. (A Renault megane 2). It’s sturdy as an old horse and with a healthy 200nm of torque and 100bhp and loads of space and next to nothing diesel consumption, it’s the perfect car for a first just to cruise around and go anywhere I want to be honest. Wagon gang

I very nearly picked up a 1990 Ford LTD Wagon 5.0L about ten years ago. I couldn't get the cash together for it, though, and someone else snapped it up. Always wanted one of those cars

You missed one wagon that was sold till 2020 in the states made by GM. The Buick Regal Tourx was around for three years and from what I could find wasns't that bad. It was just an Opel with Buick branding and a little American tuning the suspension (softer), but it wasn't bad looking overall.

Around a few months ago I entered university and saw that someone drove a Volvo v70 R. I looked like a whole kid admiring it while no one else understood. Wagon lovers are a small group and it’s the sad case. 😔

I bought a 2018 regal tourX (rebadged opel) after my A4 kicked the bucket, it's the best car I've ever owned, unfortunately it was discontinued in 2020 for lack of sales. Such a shame, becuase it was never really advertised...

I grew up never liking wagons, I thought they were all the same boxy Volvo grandpa-mobile everyone made them out to be. For my first car, I fell into a Dodge Magnum. It was a piece of shit, don't buy Chryslers but god DAMN it was so useful! The carrying capacity, room for everything (kitchen sink included), unique looks. Seriously, no one buys wagons, it stands out by default. Anything you do to customize it and make it your own makes it that much cooler. THEN I found Fitment Industries and the crazy mofos in the gallery put this in my bucket list okay -- look. I want nothing more in life than to roll through the Taco Bell drive-thru absolutely laying frame in a wagon with (way too) large wheels blasting Solitary by Coste. When I can get to that point in my life I will come back here thanking you all for making my life complete. That is a promise.

They still exist...Audi and Mercedes-Benz still have them for the US market. Also, the Buick Regal TourX Wagon is a platform that has a lot of nice potential, as does the last generation of the Dodge Magnum, which has a LOT of potential.
