Kia

Kia is no longer the brand people buy on a budget. It still offers plenty of value, but the lineup now stands toe-to-toe with the best in the class in terms of features and design. From the boxy subcompact Soul to the large three-row Telluride, Kia offers a wide range of the sorts of crossovers buyers demand these days. The range also includes the compact Sportage and Seltos, as well as the mid-size Sorento that still can be had with three rows of seats. While on the topic of the three row vehicles, the Carnival MPV is a recent addition to the lineup, replacing the Sedona minivan.

Kia is still committed to making a full lineup of cars, starting with the subcompact Rio sedan and hatchback. The compact Forte has been recently refreshed and includes an optional turbocharged engine. The mid-size K5 replaced the Optima and has available all-wheel drive. The Stinger sport-sedan continues on for another year, offering a lot of performance and luxury at an affordable price.

On the electrified front, an all-new EV6 electric crossover came out year and joins a new generation of the Niro EV. As well, the Niro and Sorento can be had as plug-in hybrids.
