No its a liftback.

coupe = 2 doors and a trunk
sedan = 4 doors and a trunk
LB/HB = 2 doors and a hatchback
stationwagon = 4 doors and a hatchback (sorry 5dr LB. )

at least that's how I always looked at it.

I agree except that a hatchback is either a 2 or 4 door with an almost vertical rear hatch while a liftback is eiher a 2 or 4 door with an almost horizontal rear hatch.

A stationwagon differs from the 4 door hatchback because it has the rear pillar of a sedan but then has the third window behind that.
