11 Best New Cars Costing Under $20,000
11) Kia Soul
The 2017 Kia Soul was given more horsepower, something the previous Kia Soul models lacked. The 2017 model has a 201-horsepower turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. Even though this model’s engine is powerful, it’s still very fuel efficient. You’ll get about 25 mpg in the city and 36 mpg on the highway. The Kia Soul has a unique, boxy design that’s unlike anything else on the market. Because of its boxy shape, it has a lot of storage space for a subcompact. If you need more space, you can easily fold down the rear seats to accommodate more cargo. There are three different 2017 Kia Soul models available: Base, Plus (+), and Exclaim (!). In all three models, you’ll get 16-inch alloy wheels, heated front seats, Bluetooth wireless technology, and a 6-way-manual-adjust driver’s seat. The manual transmission base model starts at $16,100, while the automatic runs $17,700.
