Cars are an expensive commodity. Since many Americans are not purchasing houses, an automobile can often be the highest priced purchase of a lifetime. According to analysts at Kelley Blue Book, the average transaction price for a new car is now approaching $39,000 (based on December 2019 data), but there are plenty of options available well below that average for folks on a budget.
With prices starting around $13,000, quality new vehicles are available, complete with new car warranties and a surprising number of standard features.
Here’s a look at the least expensive 2020 models available in America — all priced below $20,000. We’ll start with the most expensive first.

The Nissan Versa had been the lowest priced car in America for a number of years, but for 2020 the Japanese brand gives up that title with the introduction of an all-new Versa. The 2020 Nissan Versa gets new styling, a premium interior, the latest high-tech safety features and a much-improved ride.
The base-level Versa S is equipped surprisingly well for the price, with features that include Zero Gravity front seats, a pushbutton start, three USB ports, a 7.0-inch color touchscreen display, Bluetooth connectivity and streaming, a rearview monitor and 15-inch steel wheels. Also standard is Nissan Safety Shield 360, which includes automatic emergency braking, high-beam assist, rear automatic braking and lane-departure warning.

Not only one of the most affordable new cars in America, Mitsubishi’s entry subcompact Mirage is also the lowest powered car with a mere 78 horsepower from its 1.2-liter 3-cylinder engine. Even though power is low, the Mirage delivers great fuel economy with an EPA-rated 36 mpg city/43 mpg highway. Standard features on the base-level Mirage ES include automatic climate control, Bluetooth connectivity and streaming, a 7.0-inch touchscreen display, a rearview camera, an AM/FM audio system with four speakers, intermittent wipers and 14-inch steel wheels.
