its weird to me mainstream manufacturers make no attempt to make bargain performance cuckovers in the compact and subcompact non-luxury space
the Hoondai Kona N was based off an old design that isn't sold anymore, and they never updated it or migrated it to the new Kona they've been selling the last few years.
The Rav4 has a "GR Sport" but its just badges and wheels, its the same plug in powertrain as all the others. You cannot get any sort of engine upgrade in a mainstream small or x-small suv.
Also, I guess those ARE mid-engine proportions. I would be sure surprised if they brought an actual mid-engine car to market in the US.

It's a silhouette rallycar based on a spec chassis. Driveline and suspension is similar to Rally2: Front engine, 1,6t 3cyl, all wheel drive

It's not mid-engined, it's a plastic body with this chassis >>28860236 underneath, all the mechanical parts are from the Yaris rally car
