Why it is.

- mechanical limited slip differential.

- lots of chassis bracing over the non-NISMO RS.

- short geared 6spd.

- it has insane Recaro seats.

- 1.6L turbo (218hp/210lb-ft)

Would be hotter if it was a Micra with a turbo instead of a Micra with a turbo, lift kit, and a ton of cladding.

Make the mirrors black, dump the red trim, badass looking.

I’m not so sure...

The definition is pretty broad in the US, but this seems almost too crossover to really attain a “hot hatch” title.

No, it’s a hot crossover.

Agreed. Too bad they didn’t lower it a bit though...
