A Targa is a type of car body style that features a removable roof panel and a fixed rear window. This design allows for an open-air driving experience while maintaining structural integrity. The term originated from the Porsche 911 Targa, which was introduced in the 1960s and became popular for its blend of sportiness and practicality. The Targa style is often associated with sports cars, providing a balance between a convertible and a coupe. Many manufacturers have adopted this design, offering drivers the option to enjoy the sun and fresh air without fully sacrificing the benefits of a closed vehicle.
