Otherwise a great article:

Big problem with the lower-end Audi's. You pay extra for sheetmetal and some interior trim pieces, not content.

Opel/Vauxhall Hatch, which one?
Astra is a Cavalier (I think)
Corsa is a similar size to the old Sprint
vectra is same platform as new 9-3 and mailibu; which might see a hatch in a few years (sooner if they see that the Mazda6 hatch is selling hot in N/A)

I want my Mazda 6 HATCHBACK
Too many negative images of big, suburban station wagons used by mama. Still, that has been so many years ago that most young buyers have no memory of the large wagons. Instead, they remember mini-vans!
I just think cars look better without that third window. And having lived with my sedan for the last five years, I'm thinking that a hatchback would be a lot more useful.
Hmmm... Maybe they need another new word to play around with: 'hatchgon' or 'wagonback'. Yuck, let's hope not. Hey, I guess that's why the Edmunds forums usually include hatchbacks with wagons.
My old Subaru Outback Sport was a hatchback too - in that car the roof barely extended beyond the rear seat before it sloped way down.

Go to the http://www.toyota.com and pick the Matrix. Look at it carefully again.
And then think an AMC Hornet Hatchback, which included the rear window in the liftgate, but was ALL angle, nearly to the bumper, and an extreme angle at that. Same story for the AMC Spirit, though less so.

I wonder how much it weighs.
Also, Toyota is just determined to get the gauges out of the drivers line of sight - that is going to be an uphill battle, I think.

Too bad for Hatchback fans in the US.

will be interesting to see how they market it here, and through what distribution channel(s).

Do you think there's any chance they'll build it? Are there any substitutes you'd recommend?
