These Are The Best Cars For Teen Drivers, According To Readers
Road Test: 2015 Honda Fit
Used 3rd gen Honda Fit.
It’s practical, safe, reliable, cheap to insure, has 90s visibility paired with 2010s safety features, parts will continue to be cheap and plentiful for years to come, and it’ll hold value super well, especially near cities where there just aren’t any good subcompact cars anymore. And if they take a car to college, it’ll be a fantastic road trip/friends-help-you-move mobile.
If the kid wants to learn stick, there are tons of manual ones out there. Also, it only has ~120 HP so they really can’t get into too much trouble.
Related to that, it’s shocking how few “starter” cars can be had with <150HP anymore. The car I drove the most in high school was a 99 Civic with 95HP and it was plenty to learn with.
It really is hard to beat the Fit and its fancy folding second-row seats, especially since it’s still somewhat fun to drive. Also, who doesn’t love a subcompact hatchback?

OK, what enthusiast doesn’t love a subcompact hatchback?
