A liftback is a passenger car body style similar to a hatchback, but characterized by a more aerodynamic, sloping roofline that extends smoothly down to the rear bumper. The entire rear window and decklid lift upwards as a single unit on gas struts to provide cargo access without disrupting the coupe-like profile of the car.

The liftback design gives it a sporty look while keeping the practical cargo space of a wagon.
