I favor sedans over SUVs and had to buy a car in November. I literally had to buy foreign since there were no US choices. I got a Hyundai Elantra hybrid for around 30k and so far I love it. I got the mid level trim and it had all the safety tech except adaptive cruise control and most of the convenience tech, no heated seats and steering wheel and no power seats but otherwise it has everything.
