A 2017 Subaru WRX with a CVT and 268hp will deliver 5.9s 0-60. Certainly not a supercar but it fits the definition of 'performance-focused' for most people.

It is odd to see in action; accelerating from a stop using launch control causes the car to not simulate gear shifts for maximum performance; the engine quickly climbs to about 6700 and just hangs there while the speed increases. No shifting drama at all. Almost boring.
