Cars, Cars, Cars…

Most of the time, we teenagers dream about having an exclusive car. It could be a BMW, a Mercedes or even a Hellcat. The problem with these cars is that most of the time they are way too expensive and even if you can afford them, the cost of insurance is way too much. I did some research on the best cars you can buy as a teenager and here are the best 6 most affordable cars.

Nissan Sentra: This 4 door car can be yours for less than 10,000 dollars. This is a great car because the engine and transmission are a pleasant combination that provide unobtrusive acceleration. The interior looks upscale, especially in the SR and SV trims; buyers can even get a power seat, leather upholstery, and heated seats.

Mazda3: The Mazda3 is a great choice for all ages. This car is fun to drive thanks to its peppy acceleration, responsive handling and gentle ride. Inside, the cabin is full of high-quality materials and the infotainment system is user-friendly.

Toyota Prius: The Toyota Prius is an excellent choice that can be found for less than $10,000.This five-door gas-electric hybrid famously blends exceptional gas mileage, industry-leading reliability, and a useful spacious interior. In addition, it has great fuel economy, decent power and responsible handling.

Hyundai Sonata: This car is a great choice since it offers a lot of value for the money, The striking exterior design and fuel-economy is impressive with every available engine. This car can be found for less than $12,000 in the market.

Subaru Outback: This car offers a lot of room for passengers. the Outback boasts more cargo space than some similarly sized SUVs — but with much better fuel efficiency. There’s all-wheel-drive to help maintain traction in slippery road conditions. It also offers a safety feature which includes automatic emergency braking, a forward collision warning, and a lane-departure warning.

Chevrolet Impala: Finally, the Chevrolet Impala is safe in the event of a crash, but it’s also easy to avoid one. Buyers can choose between a slow-paced four-cylinder engine that discourages excess speeding, or a powerful V6 that makes it easier to merge with fast-moving traffic.
