A car for Grandma
Recently, my grandma just moved into a new townhouse. Trouble is, it has a single car garage, and her 2011 Chrysler 300 barely even fits in it. Therefore, she's looking for a new car that will actually fit.
Her new car needs to be smaller than her current car. The dimensions for the Chrysler are 199″ L x 75″ W x 59″ H. Height is not an issue, however, length and width are.
She's aiming for a price in the mid $20,000's, but she may be tempted by a slightly pricier car if it's really good. However, she doesn't want a bare bones, base model car. The ideal car for her is fully loaded, with heated seats, satellite navigation with bluetooth, and all those other goodies.
A sunroof is a must-have for her.
She's mostly looking for a hatchback, wagon, or crossover, but she might be okay with a sedan. It needs to seat 5 or more.
She's mainly looking at new cars, however, a used car from 2010 or newer could interest her.
I've compiled a list of cars which she might like:
Buick Encore
Mazda CX-3
Mazda CX-5
Audi A3
Nissan Rogue
Buick Verano
Buick Regal
Chevrolet Malibu
Chevrolet Cruze Hatchback
Saab 9-3 SportCombi
Lincoln MKX
Chevrolet Trax
Honda HR-V
Subaru Outback
Volvo V60
Volkswagen Golf SportWagon
Cadillac SRX (A little too wide, still a possibility)
