Shoppers in the market for a small car would be wise to check out the versatile Honda Fit.
It’s not as fun as the Yaris sedan, but its interior is Ikea-like in its configurability and good use of space.
The Kia Rio and Hyundai Accent are twins underneath and both boast class-up driving dynamics and reasonable price tags.
The Chevy Sonic comes well-equipped for the money and is available with a zippy turbo, but its price can climb too quickly with options.
Shop the Nissan Versa if a low price is your main motivation—or settle for a lightly used compact car instead.
