coupes
Sporty car bodies
Coupes is the plural of coupe, a car with a fixed roof, two doors, and a sloping back—sportier and more compact than a sedan.
The word comes from French for "cut," suggesting a shortened carriage.
Coupe also names a shallow, stemmed glass for champagne or desserts: The bartender lined up the coupes for the toast.
