    would 1.4 inches be much of a decision-changer...?
    Depending on how soft the suspension is on both probably either mas matagtag ung celerio or mas less prone sumabit si spresso.

    180mm seems a bit too much though for a city hatchback.The Revo makes due with 175mm(granted likely sa rear diff kinuha ung measurement na yon) and has to carry 10.

    180mm on a monocoque shouldn't be too much of a climb to get inside the cabin.

    The Revo naman kasi that 175mm is only to the lowest hanging part (which as you said is likely to be the rear diff cover), after that naka patong pa the frame, and then the body itself so medyo mataas talaga aakyatin mo to get into the car.

    Yung ground clearance ng Forester at Outback is at 8.7 inches (221mm). Di naman mahirap umakyat or bumaba. This is around the same clearance as most PPVs.

    Iyong PPV yata although same ang clearance sa crossover, malayo ang height ng floor pan at seat bottom mula sa road.

    Iyon ang maganda sa unibody design, efficient sa packaging.

    Iyong Lovelife Corolla namin dati naka Asian road package (PH/ASEAN 180mm vs. 150/160mm global). Kayang kayang ang mga super humps, tapos hindi sumasayad ang overhang sa steep parking ramps kahit na extended bumper.

    Pero mababa pa din medyo seat bottom, kaya payuko pa din ingress/egress.

    ground clearance + floor height + seat height + seat support + roof clearance + handhold aids = ease of ingress and egress.
