What are the Best Small Cars of 2019?

The Subaru Impreza comes standard with all-wheel drive, making it different than others in its class. The hatchback and sedan models will both get a 2.0L flat-four engine with a five-speed manual transmission or CVT that gets 152 horsepower. Even base models come with a 6.5-inch touchscreen infotainment center with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The higher trims come with an 8.0-inch screen. You can upgrade to Subaru's EyeSight active safety tech, which will includes automatic emergency braking and adaptive cruise control. With the all-wheel drive you can expect 32 MPG combined.

There are a lot of features in the Toyota Corolla, which make it an exceptional value, and it also offers terrific practicality. With the LE Eco model there is a 1.8L four-cylinder that gives you around 140 horsepower. There is a 6.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system as well, but you can upgrade to a 7-inch unit with navigation. You get some modern technology with the new Corolla, including adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, automatic emergency braking, and automatic high beams.

There were some changes to the 2018 version, including the new Sportback model and changes that made it in tune with the rest of the Audi lineup, so don't expect any major changes for the next few years. The new A5 is stylish, sporty, luxurious, and tech-savvy, so you have a well-rounded compact car that is fun to drive. All models will have a 2.5L turbo four-cylinder that gives you 252 horsepower.

The 2019 version doesn't bring any major upgrades, but some new colors and a possible software update are available. With this version, you will get a liquid cooled lithium-ion battery pack, along with a 200 horsepower electric motor. This gives you about 238 miles on a single charge. Unfortunately, it's not the best for long road trips due to some charging issues, but it's expected that GM will fix these. If you are looking for a compact electric vehicle, this is the one to choose.

This compact car is one of the most popular models available. It's currently in the 10th generation and provides an efficient, comfortable, and reliable ride that hasn't changed much from previous generations. There are three body styles to choose from: the sedan, hatchback, and coupe. The Civic is the last economy coupe available in the US market. There are two performances grades, which include the SI and the Ultimate Type R. With the Type R, you can get 306 horsepower and 295 lb.-ft. of torque with a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine.
