40. Chevrolet Trax LS $21,895

The Trax is not the most adventurous choice on the market but it does offer some interesting features. It has a roomy cabin and is powered by a 138-hp 1.4-liter turbo four with a six-speed automatic; take your pick of either front- or all-wheel drive.

Steering feedback is okay and the ride is smooth, but is tuned more for comfort than sport. Updates are always welcome and expected here but meanwhile Chevy are keeping the price lower enough to stay on the market.
