Coupé意思

"Coupé"(讀作 "coo-pay") is a French word that means "cut" or "to cut." However, it is most commonly used in the context of automobiles to refer to a car body style that is characterized by a sloping roofline and two doors. The term originally referred to a car with a trunk and two doors, which was shorter than a sedan and had a more sporty appearance.

In automotive terminology, a coupé typically has a sleeker, more aerodynamic design than a sedan, with a focus on performance and style. The rear seats in a coupé are often smaller and less spacious than those in a sedan, reflecting the coupé's emphasis on the driver and front-seat passenger experience.

The word "coupé" is also used in other contexts, such as in fashion, where it can refer to a style of clothing that is cut or designed to be close-fitting or tailored.
