5 hot hatches duke it out

By CARSIFU | 24 August 2017


PETALING JAYA: Comparison tests are usually lapped up by many car fans. There's always an unquenchable thirst to find out which car in a particular segment is better in looks, kit and performance. Such information sate the need to know and go some ways to help potential buyers decide on what cars to put their money on.

With that in mind, UK auto website CarWow has rustled up 5 hot hatches (the two words never fail to draw attention, we tell you!) to show who is king of the sprint.



They are the Honda Civic Type R, Volkswagen Golf R, Mercedes-AMG A 45, Audi RS3 and Ford Focus RS. As hot hatches, they are blessed with huge power on tap and all-wheel drive is typically the solution to keep them under the driver's control. All the cars on test have all-wheel drive except the Civic Type R, which is a front-wheel drive car.

On the Malaysian side, CarSifu has driven the Civic Type R, Golf R as well as the AMG A 45 in a shootout.

Go watch the CarWow video and find out who packs the biggest wow factor.
