Q: "Is there any concern with not being able to straddle potholes or objects in the road? How will it do over speed bumps or entering steeper driveways?"
A: "It will handle most potholes nicely with 5" clearance and good entry and exit angles on the wheel covers. Anything a Honda Civic can handle, we can too."
A Honda Civic can't handle much either. It would be nice to have an option to raise the height, like some Citroëns can. But... that will probably add to the weight. I think 9" clearance everywhere would be better; not just the main body.
