By Byron Mathioudakis · 12 May 2025
In the premium sedan market, the sleeker your style, the stronger your sales are.

Prices either slide a little or leap up, depending on grade, but the result is a compact four-door sports sedan with family friendly packaging as well as very on-brand performance.
