Which cars have light clutch operation?
I have arthritis in my left knee, but a replacement joint is out of the question.
I’d accepted that I’d eventually have to buy a car with auto transmission until recently, when I drove a Hyundai i20 and was amazed at how light the clutch pedal was to operate.
Have you driven any other cars that stand out in this respect? My current car is an Astra G.

It isn't something I notice. But just about everything has a reasonably light, hydraulic clutch these days. Far Eastern cars tend to be best of the lot.
