I wonder if the 2022 Civic hatchback chassis code will be like the tenth-generation model where 7 and 8 is used.

Good point. I feel like Honda will keep us guessing but if not it would be FE7 and FE8.

What about the Type R? Wasn't that FK for the last gen? So if we move up two letters in the alphabet we end up with FM?

So maybe FM7?

That sounds about right.

FA3 is what Honda used for the 8th Civic Hybrid and I think if we get 11th-generation versions, it will be FE3 for the sedan and FM3 for the hatchback

I think that's the most likely option for the hatchback. I can't see Honda being too clever with this one.

It's not an exact formula but I doubt we're off by much.

A possibility is that we see chassis codes similar to other more recent Hondas. One example is the new Insight that goes by ZE4. It already shares 'E' with the new Civic and '4' could also be what Honda uses for the rumored 11th Civic Hybrid.
