Handling suspension duties is the pretty standard set-up of MacPherson struts at the front and a torsion beam at the rear, the ground clearance is rather generous and taking rough roads or even the occasional off-road track is never a worry. What’s nice is that the ride is firm and well composed which is primarily due to a stiffer, almost European-like suspension set-up. However, this impacts the ride quality which can be jittery over rutted surfaces. Also, at high speeds, on an uneven surface, there’s a fair bit of body movement with a slight tendency to pitch at the rear. Push through corners enthusiastically and there is some amount of roll. However, given a steering that is a bit numb, punting through corners is not something that the Brezza will encourage you to do. The Brezza comes with two tyre sizes – 205/60 R16 and larger 215/60 R16 on the Z trim cars. Our car had Apollo tyres which do perform quite well at soaking up bumps and providing decent road grip.
