It’s a little curious to find the very practical Prius v in the compact car category, but on the other hand, the Prius v's fuel consumption is equal to or lower than that of a compact car.

As for its value, the Prius v's configuration makes it pretty unique on the market, which in turn explains its high selling price after four years after its introduction.

Here again, what you find reigning at the top of the category is the safest of safe bets for value retention. The Honda Accord needs no further introduction when it comes to the North American market. Often cited as a standard-setter for its excellent reliability, high level of comfort and even exemplary driving pleasure, the Accord is a predictable choice to rank first among mid-size four-doors.
