From being the fastest hatchback to being exquisitely premium, Mercedes-AMG's A45 S is the devil, giving nightmares to the "best" muscle cars.

Not all hatchbacks are for families; some are meant to be "Hot Hatches," a high-performance alter ego of hatchbacks with sportier appeal and a stronger engine designed to offer pure fun and performance.

While the market offers several high-performance hatchbacks, the Mercedes-AMG A45 S reserves a special spot at the pinnacle of the market. From being deluxe inside and out to having the most powerful four-cylinder engine, the Mercedes-AMG A45 S is presently the fastest and among the most premium hatchback in the market.

It is capable of giving nightmares to most sports cars and, of course, muscle cars. However, American muscle cars presently need not worry because this behemoth isn't sold in the US, and Mercedes-AMG hasn't yet revealed a word regarding its launch.

The 2022 Mercedes-AMG A45 S is sold in the UK with a base price of ￡63,140. Unfortunately, this German marvel isn't sold in the US, and don't ask why! But when it reaches American soil, we'd love to watch it compete against the muscle cars with a bowl of popcorn. Until then, here's why we think this hot hatch is a muscle car in a veil of a hatchback.
