Yaris cross
Medium-sized city, 09-07-2025
Reliable, durable, cheap to run, space for 4 full size adults, space for weekly groceries and long items (ideally folding front passenger seat), excellent visibility, very tight turning circle for parking and tight roads, excellent behaviour over pot ridden roads (no crashing), high ground clearance to avoiding hitting the ground on speed bump and other surfaces, allowed to drive in most/all roads (e.g. Euro 6), reasonably comfortable on longer motorway trips, enough power to cope with hills and sleep roads, easy to drive and operate (e.g. physical buttons for climate control), practical and easy to drive, no idiot engineering (e.g. wet belts, tiny mirrors, dashboard that reflects into windscreen or control in wrong places). No need for big wheels, sun roofs or sporty looks.

I'm sick and tired of extremely large cars

Petrol. 5 doors. Easy to drive. Quick. Retractable mirrors. Not low profile tyres. Easy to park. Very good visability.

A Renault 4 or MG ZS (both designs appeal to me) but Toyota-like reliable and making a good use of the space inside the car, just like how spacious the old Yaris Verso is inside, despite being below 4m in length.
For a drive train hybrid is great, electrics are just not yet there. Make it 4x4 (snow, mud, terrible country roads) and give it either a DSG or a manual (actual manual hybrid would be neat) and a real spare wheel (can be on the boot door). High ground clearance is welcome since my city has humongous curbs.
Give it a shorter bonnet, take away fancy gimmicks and tablets - leave just electric windows and mirrors, ac vents in the back and a rear camera.
So either make the ZS reliable or downscale my 2010 RAV4 to 80% size and make it less thirsty (or a hybrid) and we're good.

Needs to be able to fit a travel mobility scooter in the back

A small, front wheel-drive (4wd option too), estate. That or a vehicle that is neither a van conversion or a people-carrier. A, from-the-ground-up design, 2-seater vehicle designed for those who like sports, but with decent suspension, high quality practical interior, and lots of intelligent options for carrying bikes, camping gear, canoes, surfboards, skis, snowboards, etc... A modern, 'Sportsmobile' instead of some kitsch design VW Buzz that only plays to the nostalgia of inactive, Dad-rock types, ah, I can dream.

Easy to get into for seniors, easy to park, rear camera, folding wing mirrors.

Practical with flat folding rear seat. Low loading lip. Proper controls for main functions. No intrusive driver 'aids'.

BMW 2 Gran Tourer by its dimensions is ideal car for me.
Village, 06-05-2025
4x4 with at least 210mms of ground clearance, small front and rear overhangs a maximum length of 4.3m and a width of around 1.8m excluding mirrors ideal height 1.75m
Village, 01-05-2025
Mon idéal est une voiture de 4 max. 5 places, d'une longueur max d'1,80 mais avec une belle hauteur env. 1,55 et une assise élevée, et env. 1m70 de large.
Il me faut aussi les radars si possible avant et arrière et la caméra de recul et le GPS

5 door hatchback or estate form, with diesel engine for long ranges.
Medium-sized city, 13-03-2025
Electric hatchback with good charging speed and range.
Medium-sized city, 06-03-2025
Not too long for parking but maximum storage space (600dm3 or more). Should not be too long to the ground as people get sick more easily, visibility is lower and bad for back.

I have a Note and it's perfect for the narrow winding lanes around my village unfortunately most of the other occupants prefer huge cars that they are unable to reverse when the school bus comes trundling along.

Da što manje teoši i da ima prtljaznik veći od 700 dm3
Large city, 14-02-2025
Želim veliki prtljaznik i nisku potrošnju
Small city, 11-02-2025
Somewhere between Toyota Corolla Hatchback and C-HR size in length, height and boot space, and somewhere between Toyota Yaris and Toyota Corolla Hatchback size in width.
Medium-sized city, 04-02-2025
I use it every 3 or 2 days.

Suzuki Ignis (2017-, 3700 long) is of ideal dimensions, imho, perhaps even a bit too long. Much longer cars have less interior space due to unnecessarily long boot, immovable rear seats, short wheel base, and low profile.
Large city, 26-01-2025
Size like Honda JAZZ/FIT or Dacia Sandero / R Clio , with parking assistant, less touch screen functions, more buttons, preferably programmable, headup display , not so agressive driver assitans systems.
Electric when it will not so expensive to buy, insurance, repair cost.

My ideal car length should be up to 4500 mm its width should be up to 1850mm and its height around 1700mm. Boot capacity has to be 500 dm3 or more and the number of the sitting positions is 5.
