Hot hatch was originally an informal automotive industry term, shortened from hot hatchback, initially coined by the European motoring press, for a high-performance derivative of a car body style consisting of a three- or five-door hatchback automobile. However, 'hot hatch' is now commonly and widely accepted as a mainstream, if still informal term. The term is more popular in Europe, due to the popularity of the hatchback configuration. Within the United States, they are commonly named sport compacts, however, this deviates from the original meaning of the 'hot hatch' terminology (because they do not adhere to the 'hatchback' body style). Vehicles of this class are typically based on family-oriented automobiles, and are equipped with an uprated more powerful internal combustion engine, improved suspension, and may also include additional 'aerodynamic' body parts. Front-mounted petrol engines, together with front-wheel drive, is the most common powertrain layout, although diesel-powered hot hatches are also available.
