Toyota Aqua 2016, a few questions!

Hi all friends,
I am going to purchase Aqua 2016 G, currently have Honda N One. Before, I have not used any hybrid cars, so I have many questions in my mind so I want to ask here for my guidance. Should I buy a hybrid car? I will be able to take decision after your kind opinions and suggestions
1>Are hybrid cars are with less seating capacity on the back side? Almost everyone complains about it as I read and watched reviews where. Will a person with height 5.5 will be able to sit comfortably?
2> As per old threads people were not able to find 0w-20 oil easily, is it still the case? and what about oil and air filters, are generic Toyota filters good?
3> Ground clearance, this is a major issue with almost all Japanese hatchbacks even with sedans, how did you guys tackled it? I saw a video on YouTube where the guy installed bigger tires but he said the back tires were touching the body while crossing a speed breaker. Will installing spacers back 1.5 and front .5 along with bigger tires will solve this issue?
4> Lastly, what are the recommendations of a reasonable good mechanic in Karachi, considering it is a hybrid car and not every local mechanic is familiar with the mechanics of the vehicle.
Also, has anyone went for a ceramic coating to keep the scratches away? If yes, from which provider and what was the cost? Any specifics you would like to share.
Thanks I advance for giving answers to these question. I will get help from your answers. Regards.

Seating capacity is bad as compared to what you would expect. Like, Vitz has more space in the back as compared to Aqua. A 5.5 person will be able to sit comfortably. 0 - 20W oil is easily available. install 0.75 inch spacers at the back. Now, the car hasn't touched any speed breaker even with 5 people so far. trust even Toyota mechanics on the car.
