6th place: 2020 Hyundai Venue Essential with manual transmission $17,099 + $1,825 in fees
Another Korean vehicle, this time of the SUV variety. The Hyundai Venue, which is based on a Hyundai Accent platform, is available at a very affordable price. Don't be swayed by the small truck look, the Venue, which like the Nissan Kicks comes in two-wheel drive configuration, is available at a very affordable price for what it offers. Being a totally new vehicle, the Venue comes with a level of included tech that is quite impressive.
Here too, though, to get behind the wheel of this economical livery, however, you must be ready and willing to use a stick shift. Note as well that this particular price point applies to the 2020 edition; the 2021 Venue is slightly more expensive.
