What is the first thing you think of when you hear the word "hatchback"? For me I think it is this old car I used to have called a Chevrolet Citation II. Not just a Citation, but a "II"! Classy and comfortable. IT was actually a pretty solid car for me and it had ample space. I actually looked it up in Google and ran a crossed this video (mine was light/sky blue not this putrid brown *cough*) and laughed that someone made a 10 minute video (actually there is a part 2 that is another 5 minutes 0_o) just showign off their Citation II...lol
I suppose most think of the old Subaru wagons, or even the older Ford Escorts though. I even remember some Escort knockoff called the Renault Encore.
Anyways, hatchbacks have always been a car that have relatively good fuel efficiency for the most part unless they are heavy as hell like my Citation was back in all steel days. Heck I think they even used metal hose. They are classed as sub-compact cars now and the hatchback is no exception.
