Citroen C3 Aircross allegedly. Not driven one so only based on reviews.
Whatever you choose, just make sure you go for the spec with the tiniest wheels and deepest sidewall tyres. Trouble is if you want auto gizmos agogo, you tend to be at the top of the spec range where you are forced to take gangsta wheels with rubber band tyres.

Our most basic spec Evoque has small wheels and big balloon tyres, and it's better for it.jimbo6977 said:Citroen C3 Aircross allegedly. Not driven one so only based on reviews.

It also meant it came with all-season tyres, whereas the bigger wheels get summer tyres.
Win Win.
The Evoque would be a good suggestion, actually.
Very refined car, and just avoid the big wheels (ours are 17" and the smallest available)0 -
Budget will probably make a difference. I suspect a Range Rover has very soft ride or can be set to do soRemember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.0

Perhaps we need more information, but to simply answer the title, I would be choosing the Range Rover though I imagine the Bentayga, Cullinan, Q8 or X7 would all be suitable.1

Could it be getting a bit dark in here or does that matter? Perhaps `i'm a bit early in the calendar...2

Citroen s used to have the best reputation with their hydraulic suspension but I think they scrapped it. So you know whether tidy still use it in anything?jimbo6977 said:Citroen C3 Aircross allegedly. Not driven one so only based on reviews.

No, the C5 was the last hydraulic, went out of production in 2016.Gobsh said:Citroen s used to have the best reputation with their hydraulic suspension but I think they scrapped it. So you know whether tidy still use it in anything?
They've come up with what they call "advanced comfort" - which is basically squidgy bumpstops in the dampers to allow softer spring rates. It's on the C5 Aircross.
Then there's the DS7 - same thing as the C5 Aircross, Opel(Vauxhall) Grandland X, Pug 3008/5008 - with adaptive damping that uses cameras to "read" the road ahead. But I think that's just on the top-spec versions which come with stupid wheels and tyres...
