Hi, I'm a new grad and looking for my first car. I am fine with certified pre owned cars. I prefer smaller cars and want good city mpg as I will be driving it in rush hour often. Not an ev or plug in hybrid as I will be living in an apartment. I would prefer a car with more tech (driving features like lane assist, park assist, etc.). I don't care about the media system.

Some cars I am considering right now are the Toyota Corolla and Prius hybrid models. I am also considering a Kia Niro, but heard that insurance doesn't cover some years of Kia and Hyundai cars because of a manufacturing security issue?

True but plug in hybrids tend to be more than $30k. The cheapest is the Prius Prime at $32k. Even used manufacturer certified one tends to be over $30k after all is said and done.
