Coupes and notches (which was primarily a 1st gen term) are the same, a trunk, whereas hatches are hatches, whether sport or not. I could get really technical and call them 2+2s since Chevy didn't use Sport Hatch till 77 or 78

I have heard chevrolet say 'Hatchback coupe' so I think thats where the confusion comes from.

I'm just as confused by GMs terminology of models etc, in reference to hatches and coupes. I fail to understand why they would name one a hatchback coupe and the other a coupe, why not make it easy and stick with hatch and coupe, hell, why change from 2+2 hatchback coupe to sport hatchback coupe.

I lean towards a difference in actual frame construction.... but what would be different framewise from a buick T to S?
same with sunbird M/E and Olds S/D...
