Good afternoon, I am writing to you because I recently bought a 2018 Cactus, I realized that the 2019 versions onwards are 5 centimeters taller. Could you please tell me if it is possible to make my cactus taller? it is so that it does not hit potholes or stones, thank you very much

I'm not sure about ground clearance but was under the impression both the old and new car are the same height at around 1500mm?

Being further from the ground won't stop you hitting stones and potholes unless you can make the car float that extra 5cm but if you want the body higher I guess you could look into getting some kind of lift kit fitted, it might mess up the handling as it shifts the centre of gravity upwards though.

Alternatively smaller wheels with bigger tyres to retain the same diameter but get a less harsh ride?

I'm sure that it has progressive hydraulic cushions

fitted between the coil springs and floor mounts. Isn't that why? And the newer model shares much the same body (less the roof bars).
