Due to dwindling demand in favor of mid-size and large SUVs, large sedans are a dying breed. The Kia Cadenza was discontinued for the 2022 model year, the Chevy Impala was discontinued in 2021, and the Buick LaCrosse and Ford Taurus both ended production with the 2019 model years.

What is the most popular large car in America?
The terms “popular” and “large car” really don’t go together, since the top-selling Dodge Charger only sold just over 24,000 units in the third quarter of 2022. That’s more than all the other models in the large car segment combined.
The Charger is an interesting model, as it mixes the size of a large sedan with more power and performance than is normally found in competing models. It’s not quite a sports car, so it gets thrown into the large car segment.
The additional performance of the Charger does push insurance cost higher. At $2,522 a year, that is a 17.9% premium over the average for the large car class, and 35.3% more than the cheapest insurance rate on the Chrysler 300.
If it wasn’t for the Charger padding the sales data, the large car segment in it’s entirely wouldn’t have sold 15,000 units in the third quarter of 2022. In comparison, that’s about half the normal MONTHLY sales volume for the Toyota Camry or Honda Accord.
