Every year, automakers step up their game in the sub-$18,000 category, and this year is no different from the rest. The marketplace for “cool,” versatile, affordable cars, bursting with personality and boasting the same (if not better) technology as some luxury cars with triple their price tags, is only getting more crowded

The website’s Coolest Cars Under $18,000 citation set up criteria that included safety, fuel economy, interior size, comfort and technology.
