10th Gen sedan and Hatchback

[saz468]

As I’ve noticed the earlier civic sedans where Econobox looking accept the 10th Gen sedan which IMO has a very sporty sedan design or European performance sedan design. I was told by a few people that that all of the civics have a econobox look which I beg to differ personally I like all three body style of the civic obviously the coupe more so
( since I own one ) the reason I’m adding the hatchback to this poll is do you like civic hatchback design rather than the other manufacturers hatchbacks

If by 'econobox' they mean 'bland', then I think everyone can agree no 10th gen civic looks bland. Most of the criticism is that it's overstyled, and whether or not you like that design choice more than the compacts from other brands is subjective.

While the poll is purely subjective, I do like how the hatch actually looks like a car. Most of the other hatches out there looks like a slightly lowered crossover, the new Mazda being the worse ( my opinion ) Overly bloated and ponderous. I know a lot of people say the’re turned off by the fake vents on the hatch, but once again, I prefer having those instead of the “ wide mouth bass” grill so many other cars have.

Just to agree with you on how the new hatchbacks look more like a CUV lowered here’s to pic of a early 2000s Elantra hatchback And a 2020 Elantra hatchback yes just like the civic hatchback the earlier Elantra looked like a car

I think the hatch looks fantastic for a hatchback compared to others.

Haven't had anyone tell me that the civic is too econo looking, actually majority of people have told me that Honda knocked it out of the park with the 10th gen in regards to performance and styling.

Like you, although it's subjective, I do enjoy the coupe look the most and do get a lot of compliments from strangers on how they like the body styling

I think the sedans look a little boring but still probably the best looking economy car.

I definitely prefer the look of the hatchback the most closely followed by the coupe. However I couldn't ever see myself owning a coupe for functionality purposes and that's why I got the hatch

Where I live in Florida is mostly elderly people and when they see my car they ask what it is when I tell them its a Honda Civic which I do get a lot of compliments on the car but to some elderly people you say Honda Civic they have this in mind

Hahah yup I agree. Was at the carwash last weekend and had this guy who looks like in his 60s come up to me and ask what car I had and he was surprised when I told him it was a civic si. Told him the price I paid and he was even more amazed

THE CIVIC HAS EVOLVED

Yes the 10 th gen sedan is econo looking.
No the 10 th gen sedan is econo looking.

The 2 top choices above are saying the same thing, yet they are opposite.

Confused as I was, I just opted for number 3 that the hatchback looks good. (However, one might say a message board full of civic owners is a little bit biased, but whatever.) I honestly think the Veloster N looks better than my hatch yet I still chose 3. Because compared to the GTI and Mazda3 hatch, I would choose my civic everyday and twice on Sunday. The front end of the civic hatch just looks so bad@$$.

Yeah I didn’t notice it should say not econ looking but I was having problems posting the thread for some reason it won’t let me edit it
