A hatchback for versatility (passengers or loads). Small for ease of parking and fuel economy. Good visibility. I would buy one with all-round cameras but most small cars are built for small budgets.
Skoda Fabia, about 2012, updated as a hybrid, would be the ideal.

16" steel wheels for comfort and lasting on poor quality roads.
No privacy glass (makes back very gloomy).
Main controls don't need touch screen.
Easy to park.
Good load space.

I need a car that is suitable for narrow country lanes with poor visibility as well as occasional motorway use. High, narrow and fairly short. I want a car that pollutes less and is economical to run. I can't have an all electric car as there is nowhere to charge it,my terraced cottage in a village has no driveway/garage/front or back yard. I used to have a Fiat Panda 4x4 diesel and in recent years drive a Suzuki Ignis hybrid. I'm looking for another hybrid car but small ones are now mostly electric which is useless for me.

Garage is 2040mm wide, so width critical. Preference is to drive out with mirrors extended, so width with mirrors extended is most relevant.

Not too long for parking in the city, not too high to avoid heavy consumption, but still with a big boot to carry stuff.

The ideal car should be an SUV or a wagon with ground clearance of at least 19 cm, a respectable size that fits most garages, a car that can fit a 4-person family, their luggage, and bring them anywhere, anytime, in the most economical way.

Limited height for limited consuption.

The boot space on modern EVs can be ridiculously huge even when the car isn't *that* big. I don't mind cars being fairly lengthy -- after all, the estate car has a long pedigree and has fitted on British roads for many decades. It's the width of modern cars that is increasingly an issue.

Internal space suitable for sleepover,
