Cars like the Focus RS/SVT and the Golf GTi/R32 might be among the best hot hatches but they won't sell here - they are simply too large and expensive for the image they provide.
IMHO a Swift with a Baleno engine would be the best hot hatch for us and a good match for the Palio 1.6 - I'd have bought a 1.6 Swift over my baleno anyday.

well the palio 1.6 or a swift is a hatch n better than the ones we've had, but no ways they come close to being called a HOT HATCH, well yes you are right about the cost part of it, but i dont mind paying around 10 lacs for a hot hatch. . . if i m getttin a nice 2 litre or a 2.5 litre which gives me more than 200 horses. . . .wht do you say ????
and going by our motoring trend and culture wont be long bfore the focues and the clios start hitting our indian roads. . . but we still have a long way to go.
