If you’ve always wanted an Italian sports sedan but assumed the price would be out of reach, there’s now a compelling opportunity in the used market. The 2023 Alfa Romeo Giulia, in its non-Quadrifoglio trims, has depreciated enough that well-equipped examples can now be found for less than $25,000. That’s a rare price point for a European performance-leaning sedan with distinct style and engaging dynamics.

No matter what type of vehicle you drive, be it a beautiful luxury sedan or some fangled hoopty, your engine has to work harder during the winter. Data from the U.S. Department of Energy shows that fuel economy drops in line with the outside temperature, with quick trips, defined as three to four miles, seeing the greatest decreases.

In a market where long-term dependability matters just as much as comfort and refinement, one three-year-old sedan quietly proves that Lexus still sets the standard for reliability. While many competitors chase flashy tech or aggressive styling, this model continues to deliver the kind of trouble-free ownership that has made the brand a favorite among drivers who want peace of mind as much as prestige.

If you’re after a car that won’t leave you stranded and won’t guzzle gas, this Toyota hybrid has you covered.

Finding a performance sedan that’s thrilling on the road and dependable enough to handle hundreds of thousands of miles is rare, but one model manages both with surprising ease. While many sporty four-doors sacrifice reliability for speed or focus on short-term thrills, this performance-oriented sedan combines engaging driving dynamics with real-world durability you can count on year after year. For drivers who want the best of both worlds, excitement and long-term usability, it stands out in a crowded segment.

In today’s car market, $20,000 doesn’t get you a ton. Spend that much, and you’re usually looking at a Kia Soul, Hyundai Venue, or Nissan Sentra—solid cars, but hardly what you’d call luxury.

The used-car market is packed with Volkswagen Arteons at surprisingly low prices, making it a tempting pick for anyone after a slick, tech-loaded luxury sedan that won’t break the bank.
