Best 1.8 liter sedan to recommend??

**eespup** · August 10th, 2015 12:09 AM

Hi guys, my company will provide me a company car with specs of 1.8 liter engine and Automatic tranny sedan make. What do you recommend is the best in terms of performance and looks? Budget is not issue.

So far these are the models that have 1.8 L engines here ib Phils.
1) Honda Civic
2) Hyundai Elantra
3) Nissan Sylphy
4) Chevy Cruze
5) Ford Focus

If you know a model that is not on the list, would appreciate it if you can advise also.
Thanks!!

If budget is not an issue, go for the Mazda 3 2.0. It's undoubtedly the best compact car in the market today.

If you have to stay within the 1800cc displacement, I'd recommend the Honda HR-V. Unlike all other 1.8 (or lower) cars, the HR-V is a crossover with more space and higher ground clearance.

If it has to be a sedan, the only 1.8 compacts available today are the Civic, Elantra, Cruze, and Sylphy. Among them, the Sylphy 1.8V is the best value - has class-leading space and features all for under 1M.

The current Focus only comes with 1.6 (125 hp) and 2.0 (170 hp) engines. The Ambiente and Trend variants have the 1.6, while the TOTL Titanium and Sport+ variants have the 2.0.

It's the previous gen Focus that came with the 1.8 (123 hp) and 2.0 (143 hp gas, 134 hp diesel).

I recall may BMW na 3 cylinder turbo charged. :D

Aren't company cars based on budget and not engine displacement? First time I heard of an offering based on this. Anyway, cross out the Americans. Sylphy gets my vote.
