A hatchback Malibu is a totally different market segment than a 9-3 hatchback. It's more in the Toyota Matrix/Pontiac Vibe segment.
Luxury hatchbacks are dead. Too small of a niche market for a company to focus on exclusively and make enough money to survive. Maybe some day when SAAB has 10 other models.........
And don't try to tell me MB's hatchback is a luxury car. It's not - it's an overpriced cheapo hatchback status symbol. Like a Nissan inside.
Cheapo hatchbacks are alive and well though.
