List of Brand New Models Available in 2011
The following are all completely brand new models, which means they are not redesigned or refreshed models from prior years.
Most are hybrids and smaller cars that get great mileage - but be aware that since these are all new models, the likelihood of negotiating a terrific deal is low.
You'll need to wait several months after they're introduced before you start seeing prices drop.
