The sports car winner has been decided. Time to find out which is the best hot hatch since 1998. Cast your vote now!
With sports cars done and dusted - at least until all the winners are together again - it’s time for a new category:. We’d be staggered if this victory is as comprehensive as the Elise’s, given the multitude of brilliant cars that have launched in the last 25 years. PH arrived at a good time for the resurgence of the genre, in fact; while 1998 may only have been notable, really, for the 306 Rallye and Golf GTI Mk4 , by the early 21st century the segment had rediscovered its mojo.
It was really onwards and upwards from there, with a great Golf GTI returning a few years after that, the Renaultsport Megane coming good, the Vauxhall VXRs delivering great bang for buck fun and even the hot hatch oddball coming back: for our sins, we’ve even included the five-door Impreza… Again, we've tried to cut the wheat from the generational chaff, but we're fairly confident that all the very best hot hatches since 1998 have. Anyone searching in vain for the really hardcore stuff can rest easy: we've merely shunted the hot lap specials to the forthcoming track car vote. Otherwise, whether your hot hatch preference is for light and simple like a Suzuki Swift Sport or four-wheel-drive and fearsomely fast like an Audi RS3, you’ll find the car on this list.
As with the sports car vote - and like all the PH25 polls, in fact - we’re not asking for just one choice. It would just be too difficult given the quality and quantity of cars that have emerged over the past quarter of a century. Instead, you can select your top three and we’ll tot up the high scorers for an overall winner.
