How many hatchback models does Honda have?

[MirandaRose]

Honda has three hatchback models, which are: Fit, Civic, and Gienia. Taking the 2021 Dongfeng Honda Civic X-Rui Control as an example, it is a 5-door, 5-seat hatchback with body dimensions of 4517mm in length, 1799mm in width, and 1434mm in height, a wheelbase of 2700mm, a fuel tank capacity of 47 liters, and a curb weight of 1343kg. The 2021 Dongfeng Honda Civic X-Rui Control is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 130kW at 6000rpm and a maximum torque of 220Nm, paired with a continuously variable transmission.

I've driven quite a few Honda cars and can speak with authority about hatchback models. Currently, Honda mainly sells the fourth-generation Fit in China, available in standard and Sport versions, both equipped with the 1.5L Earth Dreams engine. But if we're talking about a truly authentic hatchback, the newly launched Civic Hatchback last year is the real deal - with its sleek fastback design and 1.5T engine, plus foldable rear seats that can fit a bicycle. Actually, there was a model called Jade a couple years back - though it looked like an MPV, its body structure technically classified it as an extended hatchback. Unfortunately it's discontinued now, only available secondhand. The imported Civic Type R represents the pinnacle of performance hatchbacks, though its price could buy two standard models. If you travel overseas, you'll find foreign markets even have a 1.0T Fit Hybrid version, which sadly hasn't been introduced in China yet.

Last week while accompanying a friend car shopping, I specifically researched Honda hatchbacks. The Fit is definitely the main player, available in Sport and Crosstar configurations. The Sport version comes with a sports kit, while the Crosstar features roof rails. The Civic Hatchback has been quite popular recently, with its manual transmission version particularly exciting car enthusiasts. It's worth mentioning that Honda hatchbacks have a distinctive feature: the Magic Seats in the rear are standard across the entire lineup, and the completely flat floor when folded down is especially practical. I've flipped through Honda's model manuals and found that the previous Jade was considered a special hatchback, using a six-seat layout but with the same body structure as a hatchback. Currently, the two hatchbacks directly available at dealerships are the Fit and Civic Hatchback, though the Civic hatchback has fewer configurations compared to the sedan version.

I remember helping my cousin choose a car last year, and we focused on Honda hatchbacks. Currently, there are mainly two options available: the Fit, which comes in a base version and a crossover version, and the Civic Hatchback. The Fit's rear seats can be folded up entirely, making it super convenient for carrying potted plants. The Civic Hatchback has a massive trunk opening, and its spoiler design is much cooler than the sedan version. Actually, in the used car market, you can still find the discontinued Jade—though it has an independent rear suspension, it’s essentially a hatchback design. Also, a quick note: Honda hatchbacks have specific ground clearance considerations. The Fit Crossover version has 3 cm more ground clearance than the standard version, offering more confidence on rough roads.

Last time I attended a Honda car club meetup and chatted with some modification enthusiasts about hatchbacks. Currently, the new models mainly come in two series: the Fit with standard and Crosstar crossover variants, and the Civic hatchback which offers a manual transmission option. The Fit's fuel tank design is quite clever, positioned beneath the front seats, allowing the rear floor to be completely flat. The Civic hatchback features a liftback rear design with a rear window wiper, making it more practical than the sedan version. If you're looking for used cars, the 2015 Jade is also a distinctive hatchback with a trunk depth of 1.8 meters. It's a pity that the hybrid Fit hasn't been introduced in China yet, as it's been available in Southeast Asia for two years. I recommend test driving different versions when choosing a car, as the driving feel between the standard Fit and the one with RS package differs significantly.

I've been running an auto repair shop for over a decade, and the Honda hatchbacks I've handled generally fall into three categories. The most common one nowadays is the Fit, with its fourth generation offering low, mid, and high trim levels, all equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine. The Civic Hatchback added last year has become a popular base for modifications, coming standard with center-mounted dual exhausts. A few years back, there was a model called the Jade, which had a hatchback structure but featured an elongated design. As for special editions, the imported Civic Type R is a genuine hatchback, though its parts are particularly expensive. For practical use, I'd recommend the Fit—it has a large user base, cheap maintenance, and its side mirrors are positioned at the A-pillar quarter windows, offering better visibility than other cars. The Civic Hatchback's ground clearance is 2cm lower than the sedan version, so you need to be careful when going over speed bumps.
