2.1.3.b Coupe
In short: three-compartment, two-/four-door; two, four passengers or with a "2 + 2" (two full and two children) arrangement of seats.
Following the sedan, we will consider its more dynamic version - a coupe. This is the same three-compartment car body, but with two doors. Generally speaking, in the old days, in order to be called a "coupe", a car had to be equipped only with two front seats (the exception is plus two more, but not full rear seats), two doors and a shortened wheelbase. But with the granting of broader powers, all the same marketers started ascribing the name “coupe” for a beautiful word to full-fledged sedans, a distinctive feature of which was a pronounced sloping, overwhelmed rear body pillar. Mercedes-Benz CLS, Audi A5 Sportback and VW CC are the most vivid representatives of this class.
