Ideal Cars for High Schoolers

Many parents usually get stressed and anxious when picking a car for their teens. They have to make sure that the vehicle is safe, reliable, and of course, affordable. This leads them to this question: Which models offer the right combination of safety and value?

Car shopping can get a little bit nerve-racking, especially when you’re looking for the perfect match for your high school student. The sheer volume of options can leave even the savviest car shopper feeling overwhelmed and frustrated. That is why it’s always a smart idea to do your research first before deciding to surprise your teenager with a set of wheels.

To help you narrow down your choices, Breast Cancer Car Donations has rounded up 6 of the best vehicles for high school students. Take a look at what they are below:

1. 2017 Jeep Renegade

If your high schooler prefers an SUV, the 2017 Jeep Renegade is definitely a great pick. Besides being the Jeep’s least expensive model, it is also the most playful, judging by its style and character. This compact SUV is super easy to maneuver and park, and you can drive it off-road, too. As for fuel economy, we can say that it’s pretty good by SUV standards.

2. 2017 Honda Fit

With a stellar reputation for reliability, Honda is a fantastic choice for your high school driver. Chances are, the car will last them through college, or perhaps even into their early working years. Despite appearing small on the outside, the 2017 Honda Fit has an interior more spacious than many larger automobiles. Plus, it comes with a backseat that flips and folds in various ways, making it a perfect storage for bulky cargo.

3. 2017 Hyundai Elantra

Available as a hatchback or sedan model, the 2017 Hyundai Elantra is another great pick for high school students. With its roomy interior, easy-to-use features, and good safety and reliability ratings, it’s no surprise that it ranks in the top half of the competitive compact car class. A bonus is that Hyundai cars have extended warranties.

4. 2018 Chevrolet Spark

The 2018 Chevrolet Spark should be your leading pick if you’re looking for a car that’s small, affordable, and extremely safe. We’re saying extremely safe because it comes with 10 airbags and is subscribed to OnStar, a service that automatically calls for help if the car crashes. It’s also one of the least expensive cars on the market, giving you all the more reason to want to buy it for your youngster.

5. 2017 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid

If your high schooler is looking for an eco-friendly car, we strongly recommend the 2017 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid. It’s small, inexpensive, and it gets great fuel economy, with the EPA giving it a rate of 55 MPG combined. This hybrid model encourages efficient driving. Teens who drive this car for maximum MPG (rather than maximum MPH) are less likely to get into a fatal car crash.

6. 2017 Subaru Impreza

Is your family living in a city where it often rains or snows? If so, we suggest you pick the 2017 Subaru Impreza for your high schooler. As with all Subaru models, the Impreza comes standard with all-wheel drive, which means it’s extra surefooted during inclement weather. Just be sure to buy the basic 2.0-liter model, since the WRX or STI models are designed for skilled and experienced drivers.

Fight Breast Cancer with Your Old Car

Would you be willing to donate your no-longer-needed car for the benefit of impoverished women who are battling breast cancer? When you hand over that vehicle to us at Breast Cancer Car Donations, you’ll make it possible for them to beat the life-threatening disease.

We will auction off your vehicle and transfer the funds to our IRS-certified 501(c)(3) nonprofit partners, enabling them to deliver a range of breast health services to uninsured and destitute breast cancer patients in your area. Finally, these women will get the opportunity to undergo full treatment and receive financial assistance, which should cover the costs of their medications, consultations, hospital fees, and follow-up care.

As our donor, you’ll enjoy the maximum tax deduction in the next tax season. Expect the 100% tax-deductible sales receipt of your vehicle in your mailbox a couple of weeks after its sale. You will also benefit from our free pickup and towing service, which is available to all our donors in all states.

Best of all, you’ll experience the greatest pleasure of doing something that can help save lives.

We accept nearly all types of vehicles, including those that are hardly running. There’s no need for you to get your vehicle fixed before you donate it to us. We’ll gladly take it as it is.
