Welcome to the AutoGuidance. By progressing through the following steps, we will be able to assess what type of vehicle fits you best. These vehicles will be matched to your specific personal preferences. Selected items will be highlighted.
The Expected Price of a vehicle is an average negotiated price that falls halfway between the MSRP, and the invoice price of the vehicle.
It's reasonably expected that a vehicle can be purchased at this price, and thus gives a more accurate reflection of how much vehicle you can purchase.
(Price does not include any local/regional offers or discounts)
Select the range of occupants you expect to need your vehicle to fit.
Keep in mind that most cars seat at least five people, so setting the upper end to below five my greatly reduce your results.
Select one or more types of fuel that you'd like your ideal vehicle to run on.
Gasoline: All gasoline engines, including regular, premium, and Ethanol combinations.
Diesel: All diesel engines, including ULSD.
Hybrid: All hybrid/electric engines, including gas/electric or diesel/electric.
Select the range of average fuel mileage you'd like your ideal vehicle to fall into.
This is calculated in the following way: if a vehicle gets 30MPG on the highway and 20MPG in the city, its average mileage is 25MPG.
Select which transmission type you'd prefer your ideal car to have.
You can choose either an automatic, manual, or both if you don't have a preference.
Select which drive-type you'd prefer your ideal car to have.
Front Wheel Drive: The front wheels power the automobile.
Rear Wheel Drive: The rear wheels power the automobile.
All Wheel Drive: All four wheels power the vehicle, either full-time, or part of the time.
