Do you want a early adoption turbocharged hot hatch that still seats 5?
But do you also want a rear wheel drive machine that gives ultimate driving feel?
Featured is the turbocharged 2.3L I4 making 140 hp at the flywheel. In a 1976 model.

Since the end of the Advance in 1994, Primus had no hot hatch from the factory. Yes, we had sportier versions of the Persua that were not bad and finally since 2010 the Stratum 1.6T Avance that already came quite close but lacked that extra bit dedication for being called a real hot hatch.
Based on the latter we now used the opportunity to the X16T when facelifting the Stratum. Faster, more direct and overall a pure joy to drive. For a price that is surprisingly affordable.
See our 2015 Primus Stratum X16T next to a 1990 Primus Advance GTi-16.

Since the X16T was a quite restrained hot hatch with its 210 horsepower engine (which was good for 2014, but way behind the fastest), the 2020 Stratum in its second generation offers no less than 325 horsepower in the GT model.

1983 Cavaliere Nobile Supermini
Yes, there is also a budget Yamaguchi version, but even that is more fun to drive than average.
The Cavaliere version starts with a 72 horsepower 1.2 engine, and that is definitely hot in this sort of small car. 1985 added two more and even faster variants, the 1.3 with 82 horsepower and the 1.3 Corsa with even 115 of them!
This car was THE fun car to have in Frunia and therefore - thanks to the quantity of sales - a main basement of the brand through the eighties.

We present the new Rigel Tinto, the fifth generation of the compact. A compact car from the C segment that arrives in 2018 to continue the saga of versions since it was presented in 1992. Standing out for its new aesthetic and aerodynamic figure, this vehicle offers a perfect combination between style and functionality.

TGR Industries - Ulia:AWD
TGR Industries produced the Ulia line of AWD vehicles in 1998.
The AWD line of hatchback was paired with a FWD only model to try to capture a larger market of drivers. The AWD line was intended to capture the adventurous. Taller ride height paired with relatively soft suspension and all-terrain tires supported the ability to go onto unpaved paths without too much concern for drivability. Independent suspension across the four wheels kept the handling balanced and predictable, even when the road wasn't.
The Ulia in both variants featured the I5C3:Tc-D engine. Originally developed in 1990, the inline-5 was intended for use in most of the road car lineup for TGR Ind. In 1998, the release of the version in the current Ulia was born. It’s featured differences from its original development is the turbocharger and variable valve timing setup. The crankshaft was under-stroked from the original 3.0L design to bring the engine down to 2.7L. The shorter stroke length helped support power at higher RPM now that the turbo was adding a lot of cylinder pressure. At the end of testing, the turbocharged engine was making close to 270HP.
Ultimately the Ulia was utilized far more as a demo platform for the brand at various off-road and mixed surface events. The high fuel consumption and relatively high cost of the engine in comparision to competitors left the demand bubble for this particular vehicle weak, until it’s revamp in 2004.

1982 TDF Pax III RT424
When TDF started work on the third generation of their compact Pax, a turbocharged rally version was already in the works. The second gen Pax RT used a turbocharged version of the ancient F-code pushrod I4, but when mid-mounted it was fairly succesful and iconic. In the rear of the RT424 was an all-aluminum, twin turbocharged, 2.1L DOHC 24v V6 that produced 290hp and 260lb-ft. Rooted to all four wheels through a five-speed manual and a helical system, the RT424 had a top speed of 156mph and got from 0-60 in 4.4 second.

1987 Nessa Marz (first gen) Super Turbo
(yeah there’s no Supercharger just yet, just turbo without twincharged)
Straight from Hetvesia, this Marz will launch like you flying out of the carrier deck!
With the latest turbocharged technology, this Marz will launch from 0-100 within 7.32 seconds with just only from the tiny 1000cc engine!
Taking off the top deck is quick, but maintaining the speed is crucial as “speed is life”.
This Marz Super Turbo will keep pushing the speed maximum of 220 km/h with 5 speed transmission (with optional helical limited slip differential)

Partly inspired by the concept of the Diesel Sports Sedan challenge thread, a sporty trim of the Cygneoie Chèvre with a faux turbodiesel.
Said faux diesel

That is a lot of power for displacement, car size and age. More Sport than Diesel 
But thats not on you but the game that simply doesnt support Diesels, and the power curve seems alright
