It's back to school time and many students are headed back to an actual classroom this year. To mark the occasion, Kelley Blue Book is out with its latest Best Back-to-School vehicle lists. The Best Cars for Teens is a list of used vehicles recommended by KBB editors. The Best Cars of College Students includes both new and used vehicles.
CarProUSA radio show host Jerry Reynolds shares his advice on picking your teen's first car here.
"Parents everywhere are breathing a sigh of relief at the return to some normalcy at the start of this new school year, and those with teens and college students are considering their options to ensure their young driver is behind the wheel of the right vehicle before they head off to campus," said Matt DeLorenzo, senior managing editor for Kelley Blue Book. "Rest assured there are a variety of great cars available at various price points, from affordable brand-new models to used cars for those on a tight budget. Our expert editors sorted through the hundreds of different models out there to come up with lists of the best vehicles for student drivers, keeping things like safety, fuel economy, value and more at the top of their minds."
