6. 2018 Kia Rio LX sedan with manual transmission - $14,795 + $1,585 in fees
Once the undisputed kings of the bargain-basement-new-car universe, the Korean automakers are now getting out-bargained in our market by the Japanese tiny cars. The LX version of the Kia Rio sedan is no slouch, even if some find its design to be a little soporific. Inside, you get the feeling you’re sitting in a compact car, which is a significant plus.
