Top Ten Cars for Teens

1. Scion tC

Impressively, three of Scion’s models made it on the list of top ten cars for teens with the tC topping the chart. It’s a little more expensive than the rest of the cars on the list with a starting MSRP of $19,305 for a manual but offers plenty of fun thanks to the 2.5-liter, four-cylinder with 180-hp and 173 lb-ft of torque. It’s also a very attractive and sporty car while still getting 23-mpg city and 31-mpg highway.

The most surprising part of this list is the complete lack of an American automaker. Japanese and Korean automakers are apparently doing a great job building vehicles for teenagers, at least ones that parents feel safe to purchase for their kids.
