These larger vehicles have roomy interiors and a powerful engine to take you across the open roads safely and comfortably. If you’d like to spend the majority of your time in the city, a car with good fuel-efficiency, like a compact or a mini, will suit your needs. These cute cars handle like a dream when it comes to maneuvering those narrow lanes!
