Nobody is comparing a regular Civic hatch to a GTI. Just saying that if they want a hypothetical Si Hatch to be successful, they need to give it GTI levels of power instead of 20Hp more than the base Hatch which is barely noticeable.

Damn, I didn't know that. That sounds like an awesome little vehicle. I'd have bought my Wife one of those for sure (so I could use it too lol).

I like this idea - drop the Sport/Sport Touring, add an Si hatch and give it a Touring trim option. It would serve to simplify their lineup as well. The only thing I think they would be forced to do at that point is add an automatic transmission option. Another vehicle I really wanted was the...

The Type R is a very, very, different car compared to the Si and the Type R is also a global model, where the Si is strictly North American. It's also their halo car and they use it to set FWD records and other similar things. The Type R also doesn't seem to really depreciate even 3-4 years...

Because the Si is strictly a North American model, and Americans on the whole don't like wagons or hatchbacks (even though many of us here do), it's very unlikely it will be offered as a hatch, though I really hope they do that this time around. Only approximately 1 in 7 Civics sold in the...

I've never seen that happen in any car except maybe Tesla. Often it's a hardware limitation (now ~ 6 years old) combined with the brand's desire to have you upgrade to a newer model. I wouldn't count on that. Other than a slightly dated center console screen, the features available on the...

The sole reason the Si is not offered in hatchback form is because USA sales wouldn't support it. I personally think that would be the sweet spot for a lot of buyers who can't afford the Type R, but the USA likes their sedans a lot more than they do hatchbacks in general. If Honda would make a...

My understanding is this will never happen as the Si is built specifically for the US market (not sold anywhere outside North America) and the US Market by and large hates hatchbacks/wagons - they only care about Trucks, Sedans and SUVs (which are just raised wagons lol). As for us Canadians...

The first two things that stand out for me is they got rid of the cavernous center console that I love in the 10th gen, and the "glued on" infotainment display looks terrible compared to the built-in on the 10th gen, but manufacturers do that for ease of replacement. The center console is...
