Subcompact Car: Mitsubishi Mirage

Compact Electric/Hybrid: Mitsubishi i-MiEV
CR has no love for several Mitsubishi products, and the i-MiEV continues that trend, earning low marks for its poor ride and handling, plus its substandard cabin. While it does offer 59 miles of electric range, the i-MiEV is not practical for most daily driving pursuits in the United States.mitsubishi i-MiEV Information

Compact Car: Fiat 500L
Consumer Reports is turned off by the 500L's poor reliability and IIHS testing scores. This was the second car Fiat launched in its return to the US market and the ensuing 500X is considered a better all-around product by most experts.fiat 500L Information

Midsized Sedan: Chrysler 200
The Chrysler 200 never lived up to its potential. A sibling of the Dodge Dart, both vehicles are being killed off as FCA US focuses on SUVs, performance cars, and trucks. CR dings the 200 for its drive character, transmission, and lack of backseat space. It also achieved the lowest score in Consumer Reports' predicted reliability rating.chrysler 200 Information

Compact Pickup: Toyota Tacoma
Consumer Reports downgraded the Tacoma for its poor first-year reliability, harsh ride, and loud cabin. While those are strikes against it, the Taco has remained popular with its base of off-road enthusiasts and earned praise for its design.Find this deal in your area

Entry-Level Luxury Car: Mercedes-Benz CLA
