I just want to see their hot hatches make it to the States. The US doesn't have a great hot hatch scene and it's really unfortunate, because there are a lot of parts of the country where they'd be perfect (see: most cities).
A lot of people donβt feel safe in hot hatches while sharing roads with 9 foot tall, 18ft long, trucks and suvs that are endemic in the states. In most new trucks you canβt even see if a child runs out within 50ft of your truck
It's a real struggle. I'm a sedan boy through and through, and it's getting harder and harder. Especially since where I live is pretty much all new construction (including my house TBF) and nothing is designed with small car sight-lines in mind anymore. Parking lots are treacherous because I'm always sandwiched between two monstrosities and can't see anything trying to get out of a parking spot, and for some insane reason my car doesn't have any cross-traffic monitoring/alerts.
