[Auto-Moto]The first spy shots of the 2021 Honda Civic Hatchback are here!

Eating a patent is not fake.
Honda introduced the first Civic Sedan last week and announced that the Hatchback version will join the family in the future. One of the CivicXI forum members managed to open a test vehicle belonging to the Mk11 Civic HB, with intense camouflage and distinctive body, on Japanese roads today. We think the patent leaked in September reflects the real design.

Looking at the general lines, Honda should be aiming for the fastback stance in the new Civic Hatchback. The overall form of the vehicle resembles the Hyundai i30 Fastback because the prototype is considered tall for a hatchback, although it is considerably shorter than the sedan version. Let us remind you that the current version is 4,518 mm long and around 4.3 meters of the C-hatch on the market.

 

 

If we come to the design of the rear, it is possible to see the Accord Crosstour tracks here, but if you ask us, the new Civic Hatchback has this design better.

 

Despite the concealment efforts, we can see that the boot top spoiler attachment in the aforementioned patent images is also included in the test vehicle. The stop arrangement on the tailgate cannot be chosen much, so we do not know whether the part is functional or just visual. It should also be noted that the vehicle has a rear wiper, which is an advantage of the hatchback characteristics.

Honda engineers, using a steeply-shaped layout instead of the Audi RS style oval exhaust outlets that we saw in the prototype of the 2021 Honda Civic Sedan, placed black 19 "diameter wheels on the test vehicle.
