I am the owner of a Changan CS35 and have been driving this car for almost two years. The ground clearance is about 18 cm, which makes me feel particularly secure while driving. Whether it's bumpy roads during daily commutes or water accumulation after rain, I never have to worry about scraping the undercarriage. The 18 cm height is just right—unlike sedans, which are more prone to bumps. This car is a compact SUV, and its chassis design takes into account off-road capability. However, don’t assume that higher is always better. At high speeds during sharp turns, excessive height can make the body feel a bit floaty, affecting stability. I recommend regularly checking tire pressure and the undercarriage protection plates. Regular maintenance can extend its lifespan, especially in northern regions where rust prevention is crucial after snowfall. Overall, it’s more than sufficient for city commuting and handles occasional suburban trips with ease.
