Well, looks like we have a station wagon.... Some of you can call it a sport wagon if you just can't stand the sound of station. If you like European sounding definitions, call it an Avant Wagon...
From Wikipedia:
Station wagon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Station Wagon A station wagon is a passenger car body style similar in terms of passengers to the sedan\saloon style but incorporating a full-size back cargo compartment (that can be further extended for a third passenger row in some cases) accessible via a fifth door instead of the standard sedan trunk slot. Station wagons are not to be confused with hatchbacks, whose difference lies in the size of the said compartment, with hatchbacks fitting practically as much storage as sedans, but often borrowing the fifth door of a station wagon instead of a trunk.
Also sometimes referred to simply as a wagon, the term 'station wagon' is used in American, Australian, Canadian and New Zealand English, while the term estate car or simply estate is used in British English. European manufacturers such as Audi, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz have often referred to their wagons as "Avant", "Touring", and "Estate" respectively to distinguish them from their sedan counterparts.
