I think it would look better. Add a little more sportiness to the vehicle. I always wondered why that small triangular piece of glass was used as it is so small that it is meaningless when it comes to visibility!

I'll go the other way, it would look better with a full window...

Doesn't the window make it a crossover or something like that?

Without it, it's just a car...

My 2000 impala had a similar sized window back there. Definitely not a crossover.

Never tough about full window ..
It might look cool that way , but than it would be more of a station wagon look..
Would loose the sportiness..
I do not know about what makes it a crossover , to me it is a sporty hatchback...

A sporty hatchback doesn't have the ground clearance the Vibe does. Also, most sporty hatchbacks aren't as roomy comparatively. There are a few other things, but technically it is a crossover. That's even what the Vibe and Matrix were marketed as, if I recall.
