I live in Russia right now, and can confirm that an uprated suspension is a must have! The country is huge for its population and workforce, so the roads can't be maintained that well... Add to that the fact that the roads in winter are covered with snow and sand (so that slippery ice surfaces can't form) and that water freezing underground can crack roads, and you'll get why a SUV with a reinforced suspension is a must have!
Somehow, old Soviet cars keep on driving and managing these conditions since the 70s and 80s, but they have tank DNA so it doesn't count.
