I know, Wikpedia, but at least it is a source. Until someone sites
another more credible source, this is what I will accept.
Types of sedan
Several versions of the body style exist, including four-door, two-
door, and fastback models.
A sedan seats four or more people and has a fixed roof that is full-
height up to the rear window. The roof structure will typically have
a fixed "B" pillar on sedan models. Most commonly it is a four-door;
two-door models are rare, but they do occur (more so historically).
In the U.S., the term sedan has been used to denote a car with fixed
window frames, as opposed to the hardtop style without a "B" pillar
and where the sash, if any, winds down with the glass. However, true
hardtops have become increasingly rare.
