Top 10 Used Midsize Cars Under $20k

The used car market is a great place to maximize the value of your dollar. With so many used and certified pre-owned cars on the market today, it’s always in your best interest to compare your prospective new car purchase to a used car alternative. Depending on the car you’re interested in, you can save upwards of $5,000, or even $10,000 for a car that offers comparable fuel economy, comfort, and handling, to the models that have just been released this year.
Check out our carefully curated list of the top used midsize cars that are available online under $20,000 in 2020.
1) The 2016 Dodge Charger
Starting Price: $19,000

2016 was an exceptional year for the Dodge Charger, and it easily takes the top spot on this list, because it’s almost without question the best driving experience available for under $20,000, no matter what form factor you’re talking about. In the short time the 2016 Dodge Charger has been off the market, its average price has hovered at an exceptional value, delivering between 292 and 707 horsepower depending on which powertrain option you can get your hands on. For used vehicles, trim and powertrain options can depreciate more quickly than the models do themselves, meaning you can find this car in 8-cylinder variants for nearly half the price of its original value, making it one of the highest horsepower-per-dollar drives on the market right now. A lot of people are looking for power in their daily driver, and the Dodge Charger is the absolute best option we’ve found for delivering on that experience.
2) The 2014 Chrysler 300
Starting Price: $13,500

The Chrysler 300 is a close second on this list, offering great interior comfort packaged with interior style. 2014 was the year this model got a full redesign, so you’re getting the best value available on modern American aesthetics. This sedan might be the smoothest driver, and we’re thrilled to have a true luxury vehicle make the cut under $20,000. There are a couple of upgrades you’ll find on 2020 Chryslers, but you’ll still find impeccable leather interior, a long wheelbase, and a spacious cabin on this 2014 Chrysler. This model can achieve up to 30 mpg on the highway, making it an even better value than a lot of other luxury sedans that have come out in recent years. If you’re looking for a well-balanced daily driver that hits the mark for style, fuel economy, and interior luxury, you won’t find a better option than a Chrysler like this one.
3) 2014 Nissan Altima
Starting Price: $9,500

The 2014 Nissan Altima received a substantial exterior redesign, which makes it a great value without looking too dated. This Altima looks great, and we’re a big fan of investing extra to get a 2013 or 2014 Altima, rather than a 2012 model. The Altima has an exceptional price point, falling between $8,000 – $13,000 depending on which one you can get your hands on. Expect a strong 18-23 mpg in the city from this vehicle, and 27-32 mpg on the highway.
4) The 2015 Ford Fusion
Starting Price: $10,129

This midsize sedan is an exceptional buy on the market right now, offering a wide range of trims and powertrain options depending on what you can find in your area. The Fusion comes in a Hybrid trim, which offers fuel economy that’s pretty much unmatched at its average price-point. You can expect to get 41 mpg on the highway and 36 mpg in the city from the Hybrid variant— numbers that are competitive with cars like the 2020 Toyota Camry and 2020 Hyundai Elantra, for a price that doesn’t even approach new car costs. The standard powertrain still offers great fuel economy, and a stylish driver that’s ultra-dependable. Pick one of these up wherever you can!
5) The 2015 Chevrolet Malibu
Starting Price: $12,000

The Chevy Malibu has gotten great safety scores since its inception, and the 2015 model follows that tradition. Expect to get 18 mpg on the low end of city performance, and up to 35 mpg on the highway. If you’re looking for an especially safe mid-size sedan with great fuel economy, the Chevy Malibu is a great pick.
6) The 2013 BMW 3 Series 328i
Starting Price: $13,289

Luxury cars make for great used car purchases, as you can get incredible premium features comparable to a new sedan at a lower cost. The 2013 BMW 3 Series 328i is our favorite luxury sedan available on the market. Offering almost double the horsepower of some brand-new sedans for less than half the cost, how could you not pick up this dream of a daily driver? Choose power, luxury, affordability; choose whatever you like, and you’ll be sure find it on this 2013 BMW.
7) The 2016 Mazda6
Starting Price: $15,000

The Mazda6 might be one of the best-looking sedans on this list, and it easily secures this spot with the phenomenal cabin space, and premium stylings inside and out. You can find the Mazda6 for as little as $11,000, and for as much as $22,000, depending on how it’s been outfitted. There are several 2016 Mazda6 trims that offer phenomenal interior materials that are unmatched at this price point, making this car absolutely worth your attention. Being a more fuel-efficient model on this list, you can enjoy up to 40 mpg on the highway.
8) The 2017 Hyundai Sonata
Starting Price: $13,500

The 2017 Hyundai Sonata is a great choice for anyone looking for great performance from their mid-size sedan. The 2.0L turbo engine can put out a fantastic 245 horsepower, which easily puts this car as one of the best driving experiences available for under $20,000. The interior is technologically advanced, being one of the first to offer both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and it offers an exceptionally quiet driving experience.
9) The 2016 Toyota Camry
Starting Price: $14,000

The Toyota Camry has ranked at the top of the midsize sedan segment for years, and the 2016 model hits a sweet spot of performance and value. For prices that can range between $16,000 – $20,000, this vehicle is a great option for a used car that features modern technology like infotainment screens and Bluetooth integration. Coupled with competitive performance, expect to find Camry’s that output between 178 and 268 horsepower, and offer between 31 and 36 miles per gallon on the highway. If you find one of these cars in good condition, consider saving the $6,000 – $9,000 you would have spent on the 2020 model!
10) The 2015 Kia Optima
Starting Price: $14,000
