Are there any small cars out there that are easy to get in and out of that won’t bust the budget?

We are two seniors in our 80s, still in not bad shape, driving a 2009 Ford Fusion, but getting in and out of it is getting to be a problem. We would like to buy a Toyota Corolla Cross with power seats which means the XLE, but it’s very expensive, same goes for Honda HR-V. Most of our driving is around town. We tried the Kia Seltos and Chevrolet Trailblazer – don’t like them.

– Tom.Well, a new Toyota Corolla Cross XLE lists at about $39,000, so we need something cheaper than that, with power seats. It’s too bad Tom didn’t tell us what he dislikes about the Kia Seltos and Chevrolet Trailblazer.Whatever the reason, maybe he might like something small from Hyundai, Kia’s cousin?Hyundai and Kia are among the most affordable of cars, and since he doesn’t like the Seltos, that leaves the Kona.

The Toyota Corolla Cross uses 5.6 litres of gas every 100 kilometres in combined city and highway driving.I agree. I’d recommend buying it from a Toyota dealer, too, for the peace of mind and potential warranty protection that will give him. Otherwise, step up in size a little for the added height he’s looking for.and use ‘What car’ as part of your subject line. Emails with different subject lines may not be answered.
