If you're referring to the test mule that was spotted some time ago, its a test mule. Its a frankenstein of an ILX front end and a current euro hatch rear pieced together to test the suspension and engine components and in no way reflects the final production version of the hatch, which probably won't be making any kind of major debut for another year or so, because the euro hatch still has at least a year or more left to run it's course before the redesign.
I still wouldn't write of the possibility that they show the hatch in concept form when they debut the sedan and coupe in proddy guise.If you're referring to the test mule that was spotted some time ago, its a test mule.

Oh true, i could see them doing that possibly as well. Debut all the production versions all at once, the hatch will just have a delay on release compared to the sedan and coupe versions. I'm just hoping we get to see the production versions/interior soon, like, in the next month or two. I need more to obsess over. haha.I still wouldn't write of the possibility that they show the hatch in concept form when they debut the sedan and coupe in proddy guise.
Same here, seeing them all sooner is what we ultimately want and given the current timeline as well, i would have thought they were well past that concept stage.Oh true, i could see them doing that possibly as well.

It's quite possible they might be taking it around to shows just to display for all the Honda fanatics, on a platform of its own.I don't have a good reason other than a feeling, but I think the hatch will stay under wraps for a little while longer. I think they can bring more attention to it at another auto show where it won't have to share the stage with the other two body styles. And it just seems to make sense to me to show it off a little while from now when it is closer to when it would actually be coming out.
