Shooting-brake (alternatively spelled shooting break{{r|smith|pages=20, 146}}) is a car body style which originated in the 1890s from horse-drawn carriage origins. The first automotive shooting brakes were manufactured in the early 1900s in the United Kingdom. The vehicle style became popular in England during the 1920s and 1930s, and was produced by vehicle manufacturers or as conversions by coachbuilders. The term was used in Britain interchangeably with "estate car" from the 1930s but has not been in general use for many years and has been more or less superseded by the latter term.{{citation | title=Automobile quarterly | volume=22 | issue=1 | page=1931 | year=1984 | publisher=Princeton Institute for Historic Research | url=https://archive.org/details/automobilequarte22octprin | quote=If milord had it in mind to do a bit of hunting, he and his guns would then be transported to the shooting site in a "brake" (the English term originally applied to horse-drawn wagons). Being somewhat logical, the British determined that if a brake was used for shooting purposes it might well be named "shooting brake." However, the term fell into common parlance and eventually became a generic label...}}{{cite web |title=Woody Gallery – British Woodies |url=http://www.oldwoodies.com/gallery-shootingbrakes.htm}}

Since the 1960s, the term has evolved, describing cars combining elements of both station wagon and coupé body styles{{snd}}generally a two door station wagon, with or without reference to the historical usage for shooting parties. During the 1960s and early 1970s, several high-end European manufacturers produced two-door shooting brake versions of their sports cars. Following a hiatus from the mid 1970s until the early 2010s, the shooting-brake body style entered a resurgence.

Horse-drawn origins

A horse-drawn shooting brake was a variation of the break (also spelled brake). Originally built as a simple but heavy frame for breaking in young horses to drive, over time it became a gentleman-driven vehicle and was popular for such aristocratic sports as shooting parties. Taking the design from the rear-loading horse-drawn sporting vehicle, the station wagon was born, retaining the term "shooting brake".{{cite book |title=Motor Body-building in all its Branches |first=Christopher William |last=Terry |year=1914 |page=6 |publisher=E. & F.N. Spon |location=London |url= https://archive.org/details/motorbodybuildin00terrrich/page/6/mode/1up?view=theater&q=shooting |quote=16. Wagonettes. — This type of body should have longitudinal seats placed vis-a-vis in the main portion of the body and usually with a hind entrance, although some varieties have side doors as well. A shooting brake is a wagonette provided with game and gun racks, and accommodation for ammunition. A luggage brake, or estate wagon, is often a wagonette with the long seats made to fold flat against the side of the body and the hind entrance provided with double doors.}}{{r|chambers2|smith}}

Definition

There is no universally agreed definition of a shooting brake as an autobody style; however the common themes are the coupé and station wagon, and the historical usage of the vehicle for hunting trips.{{cite web |title=World's best ever shooting brakes |url= https://www.msn.com/en-au/motoring/news/world%e2%80%99s-best-ever-shooting-brakes/ss-BBLf5F5 |website=msn.com |access-date=8 November 2018}}{{cite web |title=Wicked Wagons: 15 Best Shooting Brakes of All Time |url= https://hiconsumption.com/2018/09/best-shooting-brakes-of-all-time/ |website=hiconsumption.com |access-date=8 November 2018}}{{cite web |title=12 of Our Favorite Shooting Brakes Ever Produced |url= https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/g6678/ten-of-our-favorite-shooting-brakes-ever-produced/ |website=roadandtrack.com |date= 22 December 2017 |access-date=8 November 2018}} Descriptions of the body style and usage of the term include:

A vehicle "conceived to take gentlemen on the hunt with their firearms and dogs. While the name has been loosely applied to station wagons in general, the most famous shooting brakes had custom two-door bodies fitted to the chassis of pedigreed cars".

Early{{when|date=October 2018}} motorized safari vehicles were described as shooting brakes with no windows or doors.
