S-segment cars are a European car segment class for sports coupés. The equivalent Euro NCAP class is called "roadster sport".
== Characteristics == S-segment cars have a sporting appearance and are usually designed to have superior handling and straight-line acceleration compared to other segments. The most common body styles for S-segment cars are coupé and convertible. Rear passenger accommodation is not a priority for S-segment cars, therefore many models are either two-seat cars or have a 2+2 layout with relatively cramped rear seating.
