station wagons

Long-roofed automobiles

Station wagons is the plural of station wagon, a car body style with an extended rear cargo area and a rear door or hatch.

The design sacrifices a traditional trunk for more interior space, making it practical for families and hauling.

Station wagons dominated American suburbia in the mid-20th century before minivans and SUVs largely replaced them: We piled into the station wagon for the road trip.
