    1. Why would sedans have different designations than wagons?

    2. Why make a subcompact sedan, but not a hatchback?

    3. Why play so fast and loose with size segment number differences?

    4. The 1500 already is a crossover.

    5. Why would the larger coupe have a smaller number?

    6. What about 4-door coupes, high-end sports cars, eco cars, vans, trucks, etc.
    --- Post updated ---
    1. A tractor wouldn't sit in the car lineup.

    2. The SUVs are 1xxxx series.

    3. Why go with such number/letter stuff?

    4. Why is the midsizer above the sports car?

    S-series is not F-segment! It lacks 20 cm to be in it!

    It has LWB version which is obviously based on Mercedes-Maybach S-Class.
    Oh, Mercedes S-Class is F-segment BTW.

    It is 4800 mm long. That's nowhere near S-class.

    That's even shorter than some E-segment cars.
    Also, I changed the F-segment car name to J-Series.
