The Rally-bred AWD Hatchback has died a slow death, but now Toyota has revived the segment with the new 2023 GR Corolla. This got us thinking about why AWD Hatches have gone extinct. So we found a Focus RS and a Hyundai Kona N to help us place the Corolla and explain where the market for these cars has gone. Join us on a great mountain road for a celebration of new life and an investigation into the GR Corolla vs the hype.
