Which small car is best over speed bumps?

Which small car (Fiesta size) has the softest suspension and a long enough wheelbase to cope with speed bumps?

Answered by Honest John
A Fiesta on 14-inch wheels with 195/65 tyres. Or a Citroen C3 similarly equipped. Or, for really rough stuff, a jacked up Dacia Sandero Stepway.

Neat styling. The 1.6 HDi is a decent all-rounder. Excellent ride.
Sharper looks than the previous Ford Fiesta. Comes with the award-winning 1.0 Ecoboost three-cylinder.
Space and practicality of a small hatchback for the price of a tiny city car, low prices and cheap PCP deals make this one of the most affordable cars.
