长期以来,两厢车在国内被认为是配角,主流市场上纵横驰骋的一直是三厢车。但近几年市场格局逐渐发生变化,两厢车的销售持续看好。据统计,2001年市场上还只有9种两厢车型,规模约10万辆;至2004年,国内两厢车已发展到拥有21个品种,规模增加三倍多超过40万辆。日前,素以对市场和消费者购买心理把握透彻而见长的上海通用汽车,又新推出了一款具有欧式轿跑车风格的大型两厢车——别克凯越HRV,更加壮大了两厢车阵营。两厢车的“进化”两厢车——不就是三厢车少装个尾巴吗?其实这一“变种说”是时两厢车缺乏了解。追溯起来,两厢车的历史几乎和汽车发展史一样长久。在二十世纪五十年代前,两厢车一直是汽车市场的主要角色。大众甲壳虫、奥斯丁迷你等两厢车型不仅是汽车史上的里程碑,更是车坛常青树,至今仍备受广大车迷拥戴。上个世纪七十年代爆发的石油危机,令体积小巧、燃油经济性显著的两两车又重新风靡市场。如今,在巴黎、罗马、汉堡、伦敦这些人口较为稠密、街道相对狭窄的欧洲城市中,两厢车更是大行其道。从设计上看,两厢车也不是在三厢车基础上的修订,其设计思路是具有原创性和独立性的。比如出自“世纪设计大师”乔治亚罗之手的HRV的造型,既体现了欧洲主流两厢车风尚,又弥漫着浓郁的意大利情怀。两厢车进入中国生产的年头也不算短,1986年投产的夏利是国产两厢桥车的先驱,还有后来以“富康”的名字出现的雪铁龙ZX。按说,中国城市的用车环境与欧洲很相似,本应是两厢车大展身手的地方,但由于历史上多方面的原因,这种“没尾巴的车”长期不被主流消费群接受,无法与 For a long time, hatchback in the country is considered a supporting role, the mainstream market ride has always been the sedan. However, the market structure is gradually changing in recent years and the sales of hatchbacks are continuously optimistic.

Volkswagen Beatles, Austin Mini hatchback models such as not only the car in the history of the milestone, but also the evergreen car altar, is still popular with the fans. The oil crisis broke out in the seventies of last century, making the two-two cars with compact size and remarkable fuel economy re-emerged in the market. Hatchback cars are nowadays popular among the more populous European cities of Paris, Rome, Hamburg and London, which have relatively narrow streets. From the design point of view, the hatchback is not based on the sedan based on the revision of its design ideas are original and independent. For example, from the “century design guru ” George Rowe’s style of HRV, not only reflects the mainstream European hatchback fashion, but also filled with rich Italian feelings.
