I have never owned a City - or any of the cars in the segments being argued upon in this thread. But City had, by far and large, the WORST suspension I have ever witnessed in my entire life. Period.
It was my official vehicle for 2 months. And it was brand-new. I can actually precision-draw every pothole in a City if you blindfold me.
On that note, the stability is also sh*t - Go figure.
I drove this Cultus for a friend to try out what a hatchback feels like - To me it is a humble, well-put city commuter. It is not pretentious and is good at what it is supposed to do. In short, it has an identity, remains in that domain and does it well.
My Aunt has a Celerio in AU, and they are pretty content. Tbh, I want to buy a hatchback for once. There's something about these tiny little things that brings more calm. Lol.
