Which car is best for comfort?
What's the most comfortable saloon/hatchback car in the 2/2.5 litre category, new or nearly new?

Possibly not a hatchback at all. More likely to be something like a Honda CR-V that on 18-inch wheels with 55 profile tyres has a very comfortable ride. A Volvo XC60 has similar qualities. Lots of purportedly luxurious cars are ruined by ridiculously big wheels with stupidly low profile tyres. Air suspension helps enormously on Mercedes models from the C-Class upwards.

Much improved interior quality. More refined and better to drive than predecessor. Strong 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel engines on facelifted cars.
