Sedan

A sedan is the most common configuration of the modern automobile, having a higher passenger compartment between the lower hood covering the engine in the front, and the trunk at the rear.

The terms are different in British English: the configuration is called a saloon, and has its engine under the bonnet at the front, and a boot for luggage at the rear.
