noun
liftback
A car body style with a sloping rear hatch that opens upward, similar to a hatchback but with a more sedan-like profile.
この車はリフトバックなので、後ろの荷室が広くて使いやすい。
This car is a liftback, so the rear cargo area is spacious and easy to use.
A hatchback has a more vertical rear door and a boxier shape, while a liftback has a more sloping roofline and often a longer rear overhang.
Borrowed from English 'liftback', a compound of 'lift' and 'back', referring to the rear door that lifts upward.
