Sport Touring Hatchback RARE in your area?

[dragynslayer]

lol.. I definitely don't like the design language of that car.. just puts me off.. like.. what are you?

I used to own a Hyundai Veloster (in blue - but it's more like a purplish blue). The glass roof and rims were nice, as was the the backup sensors and pretty decent stereo (much nicer than the civic one) but overall, not a great car to drive and had a number of issues (sunroof cracked, mpg mileage scandal, car stalled when low on fuel lol). my first and last Hyundai/Kia for sure!

lol.. I had a kia rio5.. pretty decent.. I guess one of the main reasons I dislike the car is probably that it messes with my ocd.. the doors.. lol

There is an EX-L that parks near me, other than that I don't see any others on a regular basis. I saw a silver sport and a grey sport touring awhile back but that's it.

I very rarely see other hatches on my commute.

i agree, i live downtown and when i see a hatch, i rarely see a sport or a ST. 90% of the time it's an LX - which I almost got. but I wanted blue with HS and in Canada, the LX with HS only comes in 3 colours - or shades..black, grey and white

Yeah mine is white with hs. I waited 3 months to get a grey one and the dealer said they were unable to order a grey one. So I ended up with a white one. Do you know if the grey one is available? Also I am yet to see an LX with honda sensing other than mine.

I wonder why Honda decided not to put it where their emblem is (like many other manufacturers) and instead put it in the bumper area

I have yet to see a ST in person. I've driven around large sections of my area and parts Atlanta and nothing. A bunch of HB but all lower trims

 

[kcwalker]

Apparently HBs of any trim level are rare in Dallas. I have seen one HB in person (maybe). Even the Sedan and Coupe aren't that common (yet). I see less than one 10th Gen a day driving around town (not counting the copycat EX-T in my office lot).

Here in Los Angeles, 10th gens hatchback, and sedans are a dime a dozen I see a bunch of them of a daily basis here. I dont really see many coupes though now that I think about. I was actually a little sad last night when I saw one in a parking lot with severe front end damage already.

I really wish we got the panoramic sunroof like the ones offered in the UK. Thats one thing I really liked in my Veloster is all that glass above, really felt nice and airy.

In Canada the CR-V gets a pano roof (I think it's not offered in the US), so I wonder why Honda won't bring more models here with that feature since it's already offered elsewhere (e.g. CR-V, HR-V, Civic, etc)

I only heard of toyota doing their sensors in their emblem. However I never tested acc with a Toyota but on my honda it works perfectly how it's programmed. Just as long as I don't rear end someone it should be fine

Mazda, Hyundai also do it in certain models. I agree about how well it works though i never actually engaged the braking yet, just got the warnings

Hey does yours make beeping noises when you get brake warnings? Mine just flashes brake with no noise?

 

[dragynslayer]

i get so many warnings LOL i think like you i just get the visual. but i get the lane mitigation so often (some of our highways in Toronto are in rough shape with lines all over the place). i sometimes turn that one off since it can be jarring with the shaking of the wheel and beeping.

I am up in Vaughan and are roads are a little smoother. However I only really got the warning if the side road had no markings but had crumbling instead I got the warnings. Other times its just the city driving and maneuvering around a bus the warning gets annoying but it just an algorithm the sensing follows so I have no problem with it.

I agree, but then again I went for the lx and not the sport to save money
