i have spoken to several people at honda aust that have mentioned they would like a 5 door hatch for the Australasian market, however this would mean a new factory in thailand so it wont be happening in the immediate future.

they are well aware we have not had a civic hatch for some time now and are losing sales to the corolla and other similar cars

i have also heard rumours on a hatch SMALLER than the jazz being planned for aust, no idea what this could be at this stage.
