One potential candidate is the new ID Unyx 09, an electric saloon co-developed with VW’s Chinese partner Xpeng, while the 4.8-metre-long ID Aura T6 SUV could sit above the smaller ID Tiguan in Europe, giving Volkswagen a Volvo EX60 rival.
Saloon is another word for sedan. One of those subtle differences between British and American English.
There’s a third term, limousine, which can be used to describe more luxurious sedans (and not only those with a stretched wheelbase). In some languages other than English, limousine can refer to any sedan, even modest ones.
