U.S. consumers looking for the least expensive new vehicle option are facing both bad and good news.The bad news is that the U.S. market no longer has a new vehicle with an average MSRP below $20,000. According to Kelley Blue Book, the all-but-gone Mitsubishi Mirage was the last hope. The good news is that the new cheapest car, the Nissan Versa, carries a fairly reasonable MSRP of $22,315. But the other bad news is that the Versa is dead.As Kelley points out, Nissan reportedly ended production of the Versa in December. Josh Clifton, senior product communications manager for the automaker, revealed to The Drive that the Versa died so Nissan's product strategy could live.#CarPrices, #AutoIndustry, #NissanVersa, #MitsubishiMirage, #KelleyBlueBook, #CoxAutomotive, #CarMarket, #NewCars, #AffordableCars, #AutomotiveNews, #CarBuyers, #CompactSUV, #VehicleMSRP, #CarInflation, #AutoTrends

Learn how to think about AI stocks and decide if now's the time to buy a car, including how to choose between 48- and 60-month loans. Are AI stocks in a bubble? Should you buy a car now or wait? Hosts Sean Pyles and Elizabeth Ayoola discuss AI-driven market euphoria and today's car-buying math to help you understand how to balance risk in your investments and make a cost-smart auto purchase. Joined by NerdWallet senior news writer Anna Helhoski and investing writer Sam Taube, they begin with a discussion of whether AI stock valuations resemble the late-'90s dot-com era, with tips and tricks on reading signals like index P/E ratios, building diversification beyond a single index fund, and using “lazy portfolios” or robo-advisors to stay balanced. Then, auto Nerd Shannon Bradley joins Sean and Elizabeth to discuss the 2025 car market and financing choices. They discuss what stable-but-high prices mean for timing a purchase (and how tariffs could push prices higher), how much to put down and when negotiation is realistic, and choosing between 48- vs 60-month terms if you expect to pay a loan off early. You'll also hear practical pointers on pre-qualification vs. pre-approval, checking Kelley Blue Book and Edmunds pricing, avoiding prepayment penalty surprises, and a reminder to consider tax implications if you plan to clear an auto loan with pension income.
