What is a Hatchback Design?
1 Answers
Hatchback design typically features, in addition to two to four side-opening doors, a vertical tailgate (such as the Peugeot 307) or an inclined rear window door (such as the Mazda6 Hatchback). Characteristics of Hatchback Design: The structural feature of a hatchback is that the tailgate is integrated with the rear window and forms a certain angle with the rear seats. The roof smoothly transitions to the rear of the car through the hatchback-style tailgate, giving it a shape similar to a sedan, but the passenger compartment and trunk are not separated and are instead integrated. Advantages of Hatchback Cars: The rear of this type of car can be lifted upwards, allowing for the loading of relatively large items. This body shape facilitates the rapid flow of air over the back of the car, preventing premature air diversion and the formation of vortices at the rear, thereby reducing air resistance.
