>lowering a car would change the fundamental chassis dynamics of a car designed and built to be a crossover

Lowering it would, if anything, just make it incredibly uncomfortable. You can't change the underlying platform into something it isn't

Have you seen this car in person? It's literally just a raised car

I have, doesn't change the fact that the underlying platform is a Mazda2, so at the very best, you are dealing with a Mazda2 platform hauling around extra weight

the subaru crosstrek is an imprezza wrx with a higher ride height and different body styling


they even offer it in manual

Make a fucking LPG thread god dammit

It's the mazda2 platform, not the mazda3

"The fourth generation Maxda2 (DJ) is based on a modified/shortned version of Mazda's CX-5 platform, abandoning Ford's DE platform used on the Ford Fiesta.

It features greater length and width, decreased interior room for rear-seat occupants, less front head and legroom, and is heavier...."

The previous generation (DE) Mazda2 was based on the Fiesta, not the new one
