× While to be honest, when I was little I didn't enjoy traveling by car because I was suffering from a car sickness when I was a child, so usually I felt uncomfortable.
✓ To be honest, when I was little I didn't enjoy traveling by car because I suffered from carsickness and usually felt uncomfortable.
Redundant and awkward phrasing: 'While to be honest' mixes conjunctions and discourse markers; 'was suffering from a car sickness when I was a child' repeats time information. Use simple past 'suffered' for habitual past and the uncountable compound noun 'carsickness' or 'car sickness'. Remove redundancy for clarity.
× Well to be honest I don't have a particularly loved cause, but if I had to choose I would prefer the cars with a larger space so that I could put more things inside and it's more convenient when I want to travel my groups.
✓ Well, to be honest I don't have a favourite cause, but if I had to choose I would prefer cars with more space so that I could put more things inside and it would be more convenient when I travel with my group.
Errors: 'particularly loved cause' is ungrammatical; likely meant 'favourite type' or 'favourite car'. 'the cars with a larger space' should be 'cars with more space' (adjective order and article use). 'when I want to travel my groups' is incorrect preposition and noun form; use 'travel with my group'. Also use conditional 'it would be' to match 'if I had to choose'.
× To be honest, I would rather be a passenger's because driving cars usually meet lots of attention and it's exhausting I think.
✓ To be honest, I would rather be a passenger because driving requires a lot of attention and is exhausting, I think.
'a passenger's' wrongly uses possessive apostrophe; should be noun 'a passenger'. 'driving cars usually meet lots of attention' has subject-verb and word choice errors: 'driving' (gerund) or 'driving cars' should take singular verb; better 'driving requires a lot of attention'. Replace informal 'meet lots of attention' with 'requires a lot of attention'.
× So rather than being a driver, I would like to be a comfortable passenger.
✓ So rather than being a driver, I would like to be a comfortable passenger.
Sentence is grammatical; no correction needed. Including here to indicate no change: pronoun and structure are correct. (No grammatical error according to the provided list.)
× Nothing particularly, maybe I'll just scroll some social media or chat with my friends on WeChat to queue times.
✓ Nothing special; maybe I'll just scroll through social media or chat with my friends on WeChat to pass the time.
'Nothing particularly' is awkward; use 'Nothing special'. 'scroll some social media' should be 'scroll through social media'. 'to queue times' is incorrect collocation; intended meaning 'pass the time'. Adjust phrasing for natural English.
× Yes, I do. I think car colors are essential because it really brings up a person's personality and it's a great way for people to express their characters and ideas.
✓ Yes, I do. I think car colors are important because they can reflect a person's personality and are a good way for people to express their character and ideas.
Agreement and word choice: 'it really brings up a person's personality' uses singular 'it' for plural 'car colors' and awkward verb 'bring up'. Use plural pronoun 'they' and verb 'reflect'. 'express their characters' should be 'express their character' or 'personality'.
× Honestly I wouldn't buy an expensive car in the future because I don't usually drive and I found driving so terrifying so maybe I think I'll just buy a cheaper one which could save me a lot of money.
✓ Honestly, I wouldn't buy an expensive car in the future because I don't usually drive and I find driving terrifying, so I think I'll just buy a cheaper one, which would save me a lot of money.
Tense inconsistency: 'I found driving so terrifying' mixes past with present general statement; use present 'I find driving terrifying'. Use conditional/modal consistency: 'which would save me a lot of money' fits hypothetical choice. Minor punctuation fixes for clarity.
