When it comes to getting more bang for your buck in terms of vehicles; more people are turning towards getting smaller cars if for no other reason than to save some extra money on gasoline.  Not only this, but smaller cars are more practical (unless you have a family of 20 that you’re constantly driving around).  However, when you think about it, most of us spend our time in our personal vehicles alone.  Therefore, do you really need all of that extra space?

According to Edmunds.com, the following vehicles are among the top 10 LEAST EXPENSIVE hatchbacks and wagons for 2009:

Top 10 Least Expensive Hatchbacks and Wagons in 2009 [source]:

• 2009 Hyundai Accent GS Hatchback — $9,970
• 2009 Chevrolet Aveo 5 LS Hatchback — $11,965

• 2009 Smart Fortwo Pure Hatchback — $11,990
• 2009 Toyota Yaris Hatchback — $12,205

While smaller cars may not be for everyone (especially those of us who like to have a lot of room to stretch out), you really cannot afford to turn down your nose at these prices.  After all, who says you can’t get luxury for a fraction of the car- or the cost?
