Starting price: $19,110

The 2015 Honda Civic is one of the top cars on the road today for teenagers to drive. The Civic has been a popular choice for parents for their children to learn to drive on and use as first car for several decades now. With an entry-level price point below $20K the Civic is one of the most reliable sedans on the market, and it gets above average fuel economy with a 28 MPG (city) and 39 MPG (highway) rating. The car is powered by a 1.8 liter four-cylinder engine that is rated at 129 lb-ft of torque and 143 horsepower. The car can be purchased with a five-speed manual transmission, or one can upgrade to a continuously variable transmission that gets slightly better highway gas mileage. There is also a hybrid version of the car available that combines a 1.5 liter four cylinder engine with an electric motor rated at 133 horsepower.
