6 Best Cars for Less Than $20,000
Are you looking to buy a brand new car but don't want to spend a ton of money? The average new car costs around $33,000, but not everyone has that type of budget.
To help you get started in your search, AutoBlog recently published a list of the 6 best new cars under $20,000. Although the MSRP on a couple of these starts over $20,000, the average negotiated prices can be had for less than $20,000.
Vehicles on the list include the 2018 Honda Fit and 2018 Kia Soul.
If you're currently in the market for a new (but inexpensive vehicle), I recommend you use TrueCar No Haggleand Edmunds Price Promise to see the best prices in your local area.
