Some popular car models are going away. See which models are being discontinued by 2026.

It's getting harder to find new sedans.

The Chevrolet Malibu, Subaru Legacy and Volvo S90 are among a handful of vehicles that won't return for the 2026 model year. Their departure comes as automakers adjust their portfolios to meet shifting demands among U.S. drivers ‒ namely, increased interest in SUVs and electric vehicles.

Car sales accounted for just 19% of the market between January and October 2024, according to car shopping site Edmunds. SUVs, in comparison, made up 58%.

"The downfall of sedans continues" even though they are often more affordable than larger counterparts, said Justin Fischer, media specialist at online car marketplace CarEdge. "We're seeing lots of affordable sedans going away, so we expect to see the average selling price of new cars in America increase in 2026 because of that alone."

Here's a roundup of models that are hitting the end of the road in 2025.

Audi A4

Audi’s A4 sedan is on its way out, as previously reported by USA TODAY.

The sedan will be replaced by the new A5 Sportback as part of Audi’s efforts to shift all combustion-engine cars to odd-numbered model names and all even-numbered cars to electric models, said spokesperson Mark Dahncke.

The new A5 Sportback went on sale in June, and a RS 5 high-performance model is expected "in the near future," Dahncke said.

Cadillac XT6, XT4

Cadillac is ending production of the XT6, a three-row SUV, toward the end of 2025. The XT6’s target demographic was households with an annual income of at least $200,000, according to the Detroit Free Press, part of the USA TODAY Network.

Production of the gas-powered SUV at parent company General Motors’ Spring Hill Assembly plant in Tennessee is set to be replaced by the Vistiq, a new all-electric SUV, according to the Free Press.

As for the XT4, production of the small SUV at GM's Fairfax assembly plant in Kansas City, Kansas, ended in January.

BMW XM base

BMW is axing half of its XM portfolio. The automaker in June said it would offer just one XM SUV model, the XM Label, and scrap the XM base design for model year 2026.

The XM Label is the most powerful road vehicle produced by BMW M, a subsidiary of BMW focused on high-performance vehicles, with a total system output of 738 horsepower. The XM base, by comparison, offers up to 644 horsepower.

Chevrolet Malibu

General Motors wrapped up production of the Chevrolet Malibu, a midsize sedan, in late 2024, making 2025 the last model year for the nameplate.

The discontinuation comes as GM prepares its Fairfax assembly plant to produce Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicles and the gas-powered Chevrolet Equinox. In June, the company said the plant is on track to begin building the Bolt by the end of 2025 and the Equinox beginning in mid-2027.

Infiniti QX50, QX55

The QX50 compact luxury SUV and QX55 luxury crossover coupe will no longer be available in the Americas after the 2025 model year, spokesperson Ashli Bobo said.

Bobo noted that the brand offers a “refreshed” QX60 luxury crossover SUV and recently introduced the QX80 Sport, another luxury SUV. Infiniti is also set to unveil two new nameplates: the QX65 crossover coupe and Vision QXe electric SUV.

Lexus LC Hybrid Coupe, RC and RC F

Lexus earlier this year announced that the brand would say goodbye to the RC and RC F sports cars after the 2025 model year. The decision comes after a decade on the market and more than 90,000 units sold, according to a January news release.

Lexus is also dropping the LC Hybrid Coupe in the U.S. market for the 2026 model year. Parent company Toyota’s June sales report shows just 7 LC Hybrids were sold in the first six months of 2025, compared to 790 gas LCs.

Mercedes-Benz EQB

The EQB, an all-electric compact SUV, will not be offered in the United States or Canada after model year 2025. The company remains “fully committed to electrification," said spokesperson Andrew Brudnicki, who noted the new all-electric CLA sedan is set to arrive at U.S. dealerships later this year.

Porsche 718 Boxster and 718 Cayman

Porsche confirmed the two 718 sports cars will end production this year. The gas-powered Macan, a compact SUV, is set to end sometime in 2026.

Subaru Legacy

Production of the Subaru Legacy wrapped up this spring, according to a news release from Subaru. The automaker sold more than 1.3 million units spanning six generations in the United States since the sedan's 1989 debut.

In an April statement, Subaru said the discontinuation “reflects market shifts from passenger cars to SUVs and crossovers and Subaru’s transition to electrified and fully electric vehicles." The company previously announced plans to produce eight electric vehicle models by 2028.

Volvo S60, S90, EC40

Sales of the S60, a midsize luxury sedan, and the S90, a large luxury sedan, ended in the United States with the conclusion of the 2025 model year.

Volvo spokesperson Thomas Schultz said the brand is axing the models as it continues to evaluate its portfolio “to align with customer needs as well as sales demand,” noting that the market for sedans has been waning. Tariffs also played a role in the decision to end S90 sales in the United States, Schultz said.

Volvo ended production of the S60 at its South Carolina plant in 2024 after five years of production, turning its attention to building the EX90 electric SUV and XC60 SUV.

The automaker also stopped importing the EC40 electric SUV, Schultz said.
