There may be no rule for what makes a car cool, but feel-good factors like being fun to drive, stylish, versatile and equipped with the right tech provide some common ground. Coupled with an affordable price tag, these are the criteria that Kelley Blue Book has used for its 2019 list of coolest new cars under $20,000.
The top 10 contains a mix of the latest sedans, hatchbacks and SUVs to put a spring in your step, including a number of sporty models and some that score highly for practicality, too.
Kia’s Soul compact takes the number one position, replacing last year’s coolest car, Mazda’s Mazda 3, which drops out of the list. New entries for 2019 are the Toyota Corolla Hatchback, Hyundai Veloster, Nissan Kicks and Volkswagen Jetta. All tend toward the smaller end of the automotive scale.
