2019 Volkswagen Jetta\u00a0<\/h2>\n

\"UsedThe 2019 Volkswagen Jetta<\/a> offers a comfortable, engaging ride with excellent fuel economy. This used compact car is both practical and fun to drive, with a standard 1.4-liter, four-cylinder engine that provides 147 horsepower and 184 lb-ft. of torque. The car is also able to achieve an estimated 30 mpg in the city and 40 mpg on the highway. While the Jetta’s base trim pairs with a standard six-speed manual transmission, an eight-speed automatic transmission is also available, and it comes standard on each trim.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Drivers and passengers both enjoy a comfortable, quiet ride. Overall, the ride is well-balanced, with a steering system that feels agile and confident even at higher speeds. The standard front-wheel-drive system is especially great for maintaining traction on sleek surfaces. The anti-lock braking system and a traction control system also help to prevent the Jetta from sliding around too much.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Jetta maintains a sporty exterior<\/a>, with unique LED headlights, powered side mirrors with memory functions, rain-sensing windshield wipers, 17-inch alloy wheels, and a modern-looking bumper.

2017 Honda Civic Sedan<\/h2>\n

\"UsedAnother excellent vehicle you can get at a cheap price is the 2017 Honda Civic Sedan<\/a>, a historically reliable car that’s been a favorite among fans of compact cars. The five-year-old Civic offers two excellent, powerful engine options that are perfect for zipping about downtown or accelerating onto a busy highway. There’s a standard 2-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft. of torque and a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine that makes 174 horsepower and 162 lb-ft. of torque. The two available transmissions include a six-speed manual and a continuously variable transmission.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The sedan is able to achieve an estimated 32 mpg in the city and 42 mpg on the highway, making it a highly fuel-efficient option. Its smooth, agile steering and responsive brakes make for an enjoyable time behind the wheel, whether you’re on a road trip or simply driving a short distance. Even driving around tighter corners is a breeze, and a finely tuned stability system ensures you won’t have too much trouble, even in wetter conditions.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This sleek sedan<\/a> rides on 16-inch alloy wheels and has an elegant, long body. A plethora of external features is available, including intermittent windshield wipers, daytime running lights, fog lights, a body-colored spoiler, and an integrated rear-window antenna. Both the cabin and cargo space are just a few of the many reasons this car offers such great value, and a variety of conveniently placed storage bins offer even more space. You’ll also enjoy an impressive interior, with a 5-inch touch screen infotainment system, a four-speaker audio system, a USB port, and Bluetooth.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

2016 Toyota Corolla <\/h2>\n

\"UsedIf it’s a reliable and inexpensive compact sedan you’re after, consider the 2016 Toyota Corolla<\/a>. A 1.8-liter Inline four-cylinder engine generates 132 horsepower and 128 lb-ft. of torque.
