Looking for performance at an affordable price? Then check out Proton’s R3 Satria hot hatch. Built with the help of Lotus, the model is designed as a budget alternative to rivals such as the Ford Fiesta ST.

Exact details are still scarce, but it’s thought it will deliver more than 150bhp – the current 1.6-litre Satria GTi has 130bhp – and have stiffened suspension for sharper handling and less body roll through corners. An aggressive bodykit with revised bumpers and side skirts shows its performance credentials. The R3 Satria could go on sale in the UK within the next 12 months.
