7. Honda Fit

MSRP: $16,610
EPA Mileage: 29/37 (CTY / HWY)

The Honda Fit proves that a small, affordable car can still be fun to drive. Successfully mixing economy with versatility, the Honda Fit is a joy to drive. The 1.5 liter four-cylinder engine puts out 130 horsepower, and the six-speed manual transmission shifts smoothly through the gears. The Honda Fit is very responsive when you want it to go quick, although it is limited by its low horsepower. Rear seat legroom is spacious, and when the rear seats are folded down the cargo capacity is a respective 53 cubic feet. With a MSRP of $16,610, the Honda Fit is a little pricier than others on the list, but it’s well worth it in the end.
