Station wagons, sometimes referred to as estate cars, are a popular choice for drivers who want the extra cargo space of a car that looks more like a sedan. Station wagons aren’t just appealing because they’re more spacious; they’re also iconic vehicles with a long and interesting history. Station wagons originated in the early 1920s, when Henry Ford created the first vehicle that was more than just a sedan. It had an extended body, a steeply sloped tailgate, and a spare tire located on the side. This design made station wagons a viable alternative to the traditional boxy Model T. Station wagons have a certain style and aesthetic that will never go out of fashion. While today’s station wagons may be equipped with high-tech luxuries, including heated/cooled “throne-like” seating and DVD players for backseat entertainment, the vintage look and feel of a classic station wagon are still highly sought after by automotive enthusiasts. As a result, station wagons remain a timeless choice for drivers who appreciate its style, practicality, and nostalgia.
