7. Chevrolet Sonic

Affordability is what makes people like this well built and very efficient car. It’s powered by 1.8-liter inline-4 that gets 26 mpg in city driving and 35 mpg out on the highway. Although the Chevrolet Sonic is great for people on a budget, it’s has connective technology and many modern amenities that are standard. That includes Chevy’s MyLink and Bluetooth. The Sonic seats 4, is sporty and feels spacious and airy. The leather covered steering-wheel, seats, and shifter trim are a nice bonus. Options include a turbocharged engine and a smooth shifting six-speed manual transmission. The Chevy Sonic also has a 5 star NHTSA safety rating. It’s a fun, safe, and economical car.
