Sedans have kept us excited through-out the year as some of the major launches happened across the sedan segment in 2018. Starting from sub-compact sedans like the 2018 Honda Amaze and Ford Aspire Facelift to compact sedans like the Maruti Suzuki Ciaz Facelift, mass market carmakers were up in the game. Even the luxury carmakers didn't take the back seat and there were plenty of launches. Mercedes-Benz has updated its S-Class range with the new 350 D, 400 and the top ranging 600 Maybach while BMW has got the 6-Series GT to complete with the likes of Mercedes -Benz Long Wheelbase E-Class. Even the performance sedan segment which saw new launches like the BMW M5 and Mercedes-AMG E 63 S has kept us thrilled. Moving ahead in 2019 we are looking forward to a bunch of new launches and hope they will keep-up with the excitement.
