Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks. I know this term, but I'm looking for a more compact and "shining" one

Asker: That's the complete sentence: "With fresh and dynamic hatchback styling, it’s sure to leave a lasting impression". I'm not that satisfied with האצ'בק, but I'll use it if I don't find a better term. Thanks for helping
