Very subjective, majority maybe yes but for me & family if the suspension system sucks and drive like a boat even big SUV/sedan my family would be sick inside sitting for long hours. Like 1 case example my mom, even my cousins Volvo S80 fetch her from Penang until Genting, she complain the suspension too "comfort", halfway to Genting on the hill roads she already cannot tahan and vomit.  laugh.gif

I fully agree with your statement!!!!

No matter how well set up the system or suspension is, it boils down to driver and passenger preference.

I can’t stand the wafting and the suppleness of my wife’s W223 S450 even with its airmatic suspension. On long drives, I get nauseated but she loves the pillowy comfort it gives her.

She can’t stand my 911 with the factory lowered 10mm sports suspension with helper springs … I love how that makes the car stick to the road like it’s on rails but she feels every gravel on the road and that makes her hurt.

It doesn’t matter if you have the best suspension in the world if the passenger doesn’t get it.

Bro, my dad like to test drive different new cars when launch and my mom always accompany him.
Not all big or small cars can be accepted, depends on the rides, suspension settings they are a lot of factors to consider in.

Sedan is worthless. Can't carry much. Might as well buy a sports hatchback instead.

These days mostly opt for SUV or MPV. Even trucks also useless for long items from IKEA.

Shit. Now im feeling a bit of remorse .

Im getting old, hard to lounge bulky and long items on sedan.

Next car will be an SUV or hatchback for sure

That's why I bought a cheap Naza Ria for carrying anything 8ft up by removing all the seats and tinted the rear windows 95% dark as per JPJ rules.

it's either the accord/civic or the CRV. The legs have the final say.

Van. Some need to step up. Leg complain
MPV. Manufacturers has abandoned this sector. Exora was one of the best, if not the best, leg wise.

Oddly enough the BYD Seal doesnt suffer from the same scrapping issue as the Model 3.

Btw if you live in a multi car household, dont get the same type of car as the one you already have
