Best Deals on 15 Small Cars
October 16, 2014
Smaller cars can offer quite a few benefits -- easier to find parking, requires less gas, and generally has a lower price, helping to make it a great option for buyers on a tight budget.
If you're in the market for a smaller car right now, I've got some good news -- there's a lot of great deals going on in October to help make that price even smaller. U.S. News & World Report's Best Cars Blog has all the details on these deals, which includes both leasing and financing deals with low APR and even cash back bonuses in some cases. Vehicles on the list include the 2014 Chevrolet Sonic, 2014 Hyundai Accent, 2015 Ford Fiesta, and 2014 Mazda2.
As always, I recommend you use TrueCar No Haggle, RydeShopper and CarsDirect to see the best deals on these vehicles in your local area.
