Mazda 3. Multi-link will give you good handling but don't complain about the rear space.

Ford Focus rear uses a trailing arm design coupled with toe bar, camber bar and suspension bracket. Excellent use of space while remaining independent.

Most small hatchback (i.e Fiesta) and MPV (Alphard) use torsion beam. Cheapest to produce, takes up the least space. But when take corner hard the rear outside wheel may be lifted off the ground.

Any non-traditional suspension design may be called multi-link. Does not mean it is any better and needs to be evaluated on a car to car basis. Porsche 911 uses McPherson struts but can still outhandle most cars.

Multi link is an independent design so left tire movement up and down doesn't affect rifght side tire. Where this beam type is not independent.

What is your budget?

Most cheap new car is using rear torsion beam because of cost concerns.. even the fiesta uses a rear torsion beam.. VW Polo too.. iinm..

My Golf Mk 7 with multilink is less comfortable than my Renault Kangoo and Citroen Xsara, both with torsion beam.

Under 55k, cheapest is a 2nd hand 2006 Honda Civic FD2.0. It has multi-link suspension
Under 35k, cheapest is a 2nd hand 2004 Honda Civic ES2.0. Not sure what suspension.

You can also find some of the older Civics such as the EK or EG around the 25k to 35k price range but those are are pre 2000s, not sure if you want to go that far. Fairly certain the older models use multi-link suspension.

Honestly with roads like ours I think the spring and damper got much bigger effect on ride and handling than the suspension design. Multi link or torsion beam hit a pothole mid-corner still sakit. Also imho the front suspension affects the ride and handling much more than rear, which is why reputable companies still use torsion beam at the back.
