If you’re a car shopper in the market for a full-size car that can move the whole family or all of your friends, you’ve got options. However, some full-size sedans cost too much to own with high gas prices or maintenance costs. So if you want to drive your large sedan for less, here are KBB’s picks for the cheapest full-size cars to own over five years, like the Dodge Charger.

  • Toyota Avalon Hybrid
  • Chrysler 300
  • Dodge Charger
  • Volkswagen Arteon

Is Avalon Hybrid worth it?

The Toyota Avalon is an underrated car and an excellent option for shoppers looking for affordable luxury. Also, Kelley Blue Book (KBB) gives the Avalon Hybrid its top spot on the list of the cheapest full-size cars to own over the course of five years. Specifically, the Toyota Avalon Hybrid has a five-year cost to own of $47,376.

While that overall price is close to the other cars on KBB’s list, the Avalon Hybrid shines in fuel economy. In fact, the Avalon Hybrid’s five-year fuel costs are $5,481, nearly half as much as the V6-powered Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300.

Are Chrysler’s expensive to maintain?

The Chrylser 300 secures the second spot on the list of cheapest full-size cars and has the lowest maintenance cost of all four list-toppers. With an average five-year maintenance cost of $3,645, the Chrysler 300 is nearly $1,000 cheaper to maintain than a comparable Avalon Hybrid. However, the relatively thirsty Pentastar V6 engine pushes the five-year cost above $48,000.

Are Dodge Chargers expensive cars?

The Dodge Charger offers everything from an affordable full-size family car with a V6 engine to tire-shredding supercharged V8 power. However, in terms of KBB’s list of affordable full-size vehicles, the Pentastar V6-powered variation is your cheapest option. The Dodge Charger has an overall cost to own of $49,004, making it more expensive than the Avalon Hybrid and Chrylser 300.

Is the Volkswagen Arteon one of the KBB cheapest full-size cars?

The Volkswagen Arteon is one of KBB’s cheapest full-size cars to own over a five-year period. However, while the Arteon has lower fuel and insurance costs than the Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger, it lacks in other capacities. The Volkswagen Arteon depreciates more than the Dodge and the Chrysler, to the tune of $23,036 total over five years. Still, with an overall cost to own of $49,488, the Volkswagen Arteon makes the list of cheapest full-size cars.

Should you buy one of KBB’s picks for the cheapest full-size cars?

If you want a full-size car with renowned reliability and list-topping fuel savings, consider the latest Toyota Avalon Hybrids. However, if you want more torque or something with an American badge, you could consider some of the last internal combustion (ICE) Dodge and Chrysler sedans available, like the Charger. Still, Kelley Blue Book suggests you’re likely to save over the competition with any of these full-size cars.
