5. Toyota Yaris

MSRP: $15,680
EPA Mileage: 30/36 (CTY / HWY)

When first introduced in 2012, Toyota advertised the Toyota Yaris with the tagline “It’s a car!” No truer statement can be made, the Toyota Yaris certainly is a car. Designed with economy in mind, the Toyota Yaris comes in at a base price of $15,680. Coming standard with the Toyota Yaris is a 6.1 inch touch screen for Toyota’s app-based infotainment system, six speakers, HD radio, a USB port with iPod control, and Bluetooth phone, voice recognition and music streaming capability. The Toyota Yaris’s little four-cylinder engine produces 106 horsepower, which isn’t much in the way of power, but allows the Yaris to pull off an EPA estimated 30 mpg city / 36 mpg highway.
