17. Suzuki Aerio
The Suzuki Aerio brought compact versatility and respectable fuel economy to the 2005 market. With EPA ratings of 25 mpg city / 31 mpg highway, it offered solid efficiency for its class, rivaling other popular hatchbacks and sedans. The Aerio’s flexible interior and available all-wheel drive made it a practical—but often overlooked—choice for urban and suburban drivers.
