I learned that new cars still use 4 lug wheels. I was shocked when I saw that.

Edit: apparently a lot of things still do. I was very wrong about that

Honestly it’s better than I expected. Doors are actually kind of solid. Deep trunk. Sirius XM. I Guess if you want a cheap new car it could be worse.

New Miata still uses 4 lug and some Hondas, Toyotas, etc.. Its a light car thing.

Never knew that. I thought they stopped doing that in the 90s. But yeah a quick GIS shows even the Fit uses them.

I think a Smart uses 3 lugs. But I don't really consider that a car.

The heavier the vehicle, the more lugs it needs. Simple as that.

I just thought 5 lug became standard for like safety reasons. And 6 lug were for large SUVs and trucks.

Oh. My. God. They did.

The redesign added 4 lugs. I’m shocked.

A lot of small city cars use 4 logs. My versa had 4. My wheels are quite light though.

There is nothing wrong with 4 lugs :)

As long as the nuts are tightened properly, 4-lug wheels should not be that dangerous on relatively light cars like that.

My Smart has three lugs per wheel, but the new (2016) model has four.

If it’s an Enterprise rental, try scanning the sticker on the driver’s door.

If I had to go Hyundai, I’d go for the Elantra Touring.

My sister’s friends sister had one. Really not a bad car at all. Very practical. Probably why it didn’t sell too well here.

I would love to watch it crush the little Hyundai.

I want one.

Eh - the little Hyundai has its uses. You could do a lot worse for a rental car (cough cough, Aveo).

My drivers ed car. Complete with “wood” trim.

Never. Again. Ever.

Renting a car a while back they said they had an Aveo. I said keep looking. Got a Volvo S40 for not much more.
