At the end of last year, news of the Civic hatchback version into the Chinese market is already rumors sky, and many have expressed the faithful car look forward to endless: “TYPE-R really want to come.” Picture from abroad hatchback version of the Civic, we can indeed see that the hatchback Civic TYPE-R with the gap in the level of appearance only only one wing, and nothing more. As for the difference in power level, I believe that friends buy Civic car so it does not have the ultimate power demand.
and in 2020 the first batch of the Ministry announced new models among the many riders finally get to see the figure of the hatchback version of the Civic’s , also from the Dongfeng Honda production, and unveiled a concept version of the model. Version of the Civic sedan in conjunction with its launch in the vigor of the domestic market, the prospects hatchback version of the Civic is relatively clear.

However, also in this year, another veteran XiaoGangBao golf powerhouse eighth generation product will also enter Chinese market, which is a number of golf fans the highly anticipated news.
and 8 golf hatchback version of the Civic, the same can be called “fun”, there are sporty compact hatchback, Who do better sales prospects ? Next, Jiang brother today, and we talk about these two “sports car of God.”
a visual level
to talk about the hatchback version of the Civic, welcomed the hatchback version of the Civic is finally here, the overall shape is consistent with the version of the Civic sedan, the front bumper of the “L-shaped” decoration Article also become obvious difference between the two characteristics. Front bumper hatchback version added “X” shape design elements, while in front of the car, the car side joined the side skirts, sporty further enhanced. The difference between the low version with high-allocation model, it is mainly concentrated in the headlights.

The most eye-dotting Civic hatchback place is the tail, the overall shape of the tail with TYPE-R to maintain a high degree of similarity, overall a very strong fighting spirit, it is equipped with the original center dual exhaust pipes, almost all can save a modified money, that is the original modification effect. Comparative cash “USB” in the rear exhaust pipe is set stronger the sedan Civic few blocks.

The interior, with reference to the case for the US version Although the Ministry of interior has not yet announced the Civic hatchback in the case, but I believe will continue to maintain the domestic version of the Civic sedan like interior design. It may be different that the car dashboard and multimedia display backlight using red, and are equipped with imitation carbon fiber trim.
look at golf 8, this generation of golf and updating the appearance of changes compared to the previous generation replacement is already regarded as a great.

from the side, it can be seen that golf 8 the more refined, more a sense of flow lines.

In the tail aspect, golf 8 it can be said is bolder, flat design, LOGO below with letters, design version also has bilateral common exhaust.

In the interior level, although consistent than the general public the old-fashioned atmosphere is much better, but not too aggressive.

Overall, it is clear militant hatchback version of the Civic will be a little stronger, and from the potential for conversion, the angular hatchback Civic in the installation of modified parts can choose the accessories will be more aggressive in itself and even design probably will not occur sense of violation and, from that point on, the home of golf still partial wind of some.
Second, the space suspension level
domestic consumers to buy a car, even taking into account the attributes of sport car, or will also remain concerned about the situation of spatial dimensions Although two specific car ride experience is not yet possible to know, but from the data we can compare. Obviously Golf 8 does not do much to enhance the body size, the Civic partial class A + to compare the price, even the hatchback is also quite different.
Also, in terms of the suspension, golf rear overhang and cash as 8, the low version torsion beam, top model use multi-link independent suspension, perhaps it is the public that can balance cost and reputation of the program. Honestly, compared to the hatchback version of the Civic comes standard with independent suspension, golf 8 does not mean a little, after all, the public “halo” in the young people, have not used.
Third, the power level
Since the motion to be modified, then at least the power to keep up, the power, the information given from the Ministry to look, the main power hatchback Civic is still expected to maintain cash sedan Civic 220N * m torque, 1.5T power of 130kW of power.
and golf in the country, although not yet available information, but in the case of overseas version, is expected to take the amount of the release will also be equipped with 1.5T engine, high-power version of the maximum power of 150 horsepower (110kW), it seems the power compared to the Civic is slightly less certain.
Summary:
Even though both conventional movement are biased, and a high conversion rate models. But this is different from the past, the hatchback version of the Civic, whether in terms of appearance degree of motion, or can be modified terms will8 is higher than the Golf and Civic also be more robust Chinese consumers like spatial properties, etc., plus the Civic sedan from the beginning of the tenth generation replacement selling in the domestic market, has become the network on behalf of the red car, it can be said all aspects leading to high 8.
And although golf has a glorious history, but in the Chinese market, but now looks a little depressed. It is expected to get is that the introduction of the hatchback Civic is bound to give the East this bring more sales, to further consolidate the “Civic” the IP. The Golf 8 may rely more on less than a Civic hatchback file of the terminal price to move on. What do you think of it?
