A surprisingly loud noise was transmitted into the interior when driving over sharp bumps. Over normal bumps it was quiet for a small car.
The brakes, for a given amount of force applied to the pedal, seem to produce less stopping power than brakes of other cars. It was disconcerting to stop quickly in traffic.
