Buying a used car in 2019 doesn't have to be expensive. In fact, there are plenty of vehicles you can get for under $20,000.
The vehicle search engine iSeeCars.com recently released a list of vehicles available for under $20,000, including everything from full- and mid-size models to compact cars and SUVs.
As you can see, many of the best used vehicles under $20,000 are hybrids. iSeeCars.com CEO Phong Ly says there’s a good reason for that.
Report: Here are the best used cars under $20,000
A sticker price under that amount is about right for a new driver, recent graduate or anyone looking to save money on a used vehicle.
The list below shows not only the used vehicle, but its price after three years and depreciation figures.
"New hybrid vehicles are more expensive than their non-hybrid counterparts with the Kia Optima Hybrid costing an additional $4,303," Ly says. "However, there isn't a high demand for these hybrid vehicles, and their steep depreciation brings their resale value close to that of their non-hybrid versions."
He says the average price of a three-year-old Fusion Hybrid is only about $200 more than a gasoline-powered Fusion.
However, iSeeCars.com notes that non-hybrid versions of these vehicles also depreciate at an above-average rate due to the overall decline of sedan market in the United States.
