Why should I also consider these?
The 2012 Kia Forte is a really good pick in most respects--even matched up against even more recent redesigns like the Ford Focus, Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata, and Honda Civic.
The Cruze is a roomy compact, almost mid-size by some gauges, and it has top-notch safety along with a new fuel-efficient 1.4-liter turbocharged engine; the new Hyundai Elantra also promises to be a top contender, with 40-mpg highway ratings across the model line.
For those who want a sportier drive, the new Ford Focus is one to consider; the Focus also offers more tech and convenience options, though at a higher price.
The Mazda3 is the favorite for those with an enthusiast streak, and for 2012 Mazda has installed a new fual-saving direct-injection engine in some of the model line.
Within this group, the Corolla is the legendary leader for reliability, longevity, and all-around frugal driving, but the Corolla isn't quite as refined as the Forte.
