	* Nissan Murano. Although not as huge as most SUVs, it has a very poor utilization of internal and external space due to curved lines. Wheels are huge, and it looks mean on the outside. Good looks but poor utility. Cool car, huge wheels, interesting dashboard, AWD, GPS, leather seats, almost as big as an SUV, hatchback, lower in height than a Dodge Caravan minivan.		* Nissan Murano.

	* '''Honda Fit''': starling of the list and my personal favorite. Affordable used and without navigation option. I had a reported 37mpg long-term average (commute to work by rural backroads). Buy a used one, 2009+, Sport model only (bigger wheels, etc). Girls love the car. However, before 2011, ESC was only available on the hard to find Sport with Navigation package. Also, Navigation option is pretty expensive. Buy only the Sport model. The car has a surprising amount of space inside, and I have measured it to have the same amount of space as CR-V, which is of course an SUV that is much bigger and more expensive. Also, watch out for the clockspring recall.		* '''Honda Fit''': starling of the list and my personal favorite. Affordable used and without navigation option.
