List of fastback automobiles

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This list of fastback automobiles includes examples of a car body style whose roofline slopes continuously down at the back.[1] It is a form of back for an automobile body consisting of a single convex curve from the top to the rear bumper.[2] This automotive design element "relates to an interest in streamlining and aerodynamics".[3]
