Here then are the 14 winners named as Best Buys for 2019 by KBB, per category.

1 – Compact Car: The Honda Civic

No surprise here, as the Civic takes home the prize once again. A car that simply does everything well, the Civic also now comes in three different chassis configurations and with several different engine configurations if you include the Si and Type R variants. A sure bet if there ever was one.
