three-door

Two-door plus hatch

Three-door describes a vehicle with two passenger doors plus a rear hatch or tailgate that counts as the third door: a three-door hatchback, the sporty three-door model.

The configuration typically indicates a compact or sportier variant, as opposed to five-door versions of the same car with rear passenger doors added.
