Chassis clearance
A little bit apt at the moment, having driven low seated hybrid cars previously (Prius, Yaris and CT200h) and staying clear of huge puddles. I now own the NX and wondered if anyone has tested how water tight they are when driving through fords, flood water or big puddles.
The reason I ask is that whilst owning a Prius we had water ingress to the switch unit that determines whether the car uses battery or engine, a 'sealed unit' that cost us £600 to have fixed making us cautious of driving through large puddles in our other hybrid cars.
