We've been told that OEMs are killing sedans because it's cheaper to build crossovers, and since crossovers are in high demand, automakers can charge more for them. However, it's not clear if unibody crossovers, many of which share platforms with current or currently dead sedans, are cheaper to build. Seems silly to me.
