Cheapest Manual Cars for Sale in Canada

Either if you are new to car leasing, you don't have a huge family to move around or just need a small vehicle to solve your transportation needs; there are very attractive options in the market that will help you to create a balance the budget and the car. So, alternatives, there are many. Welcome to read my list of cheapest manual cars for sale in Canada.

As a note, I just want to remark that at LeaseCosts we do not specialize on car features detailing, just on price listing and analysis. If you are looking for specific vehicle features, I would suggest you jump to the manufacturer page from our tools once you have found a vehicle of your interest.

Manual Cars for Sale in Canada

Although more popular in Europe and South America than in North America, Manual vehicles are usually presented in advertising as the starting sub-model for each new model. Honestly, my Argentinian friends hate automatic cars and find weird how the pricing is inverted in Canada compared to their market when it comes to the relation between the prices of Manual & Automatic Transmissions. 

When I travel, I occasionally ask for Manual vehicles to "improve" the transportation experience of my vacations. It has worked pretty nice so far, and it is not a bad idea to enjoy driving a little bit more once a while.

So, the promised list of cheapest manual vehicles in the Canadian market:

2017 Nissan Versa Note S Manual - 178CAD/month tax. inc.

Manual Cars for Sale: Versa Note

The Versa Note is that vehicle that is a perfect fit for those who are just starting and want to go for the most affordable option. The Micra size is OK, but the Versa Note is good enough for not feeling too tight inside of a car. It can be leased for 178CAD/month tax. inc. and it is considered the #1 cheapest among all manual cars for sale in the market.

2017 Kia Forte LX BM Manual - 196CAD/month tax. inc.

Manual Cars for Sale: KIA RIO

Kia keeps fighting for the Canadian market. They have been doing so for a long time, and we can notice so with the amount of Sportage, Optima, Soul and Forte vehicles on the streets. The 2017 Forte is definitely one of the best options to lease for under 200CAD/month tax. inc.

2017 Nissan Sentra S Manual - 202CAD/month tax. inc.

Manual Cars for Sale: Nissan Sentra

The 2017 Sentra has been featured multiple times at LeaseCosts due to the amount of requests for it and the formidable pricing options presented by Nissan in the last few months. The car has appeared twice in our monthly reviews, for the month of May and June.

2017 Chevrolet Cruze L Manual - 211CAD/month tax. inc.

Manual Cars for Sale: Chevrolet Cruze

Chevrolet has been pushing forward the Cruze with very good results during the last few years. It is a vehicle I always enjoy testing during a trip on rent when traveling light. It is pretty well designed for the "Northern" conditions of driving in Canada and performs pretty well during the winter. 

2017 Toyota Yaris CE Hatchback Manual - 239CAD/month tax. inc.

Manual Cars for Sale: Toyota Yaris

And the 2017 Yaris, although 40CAD/month more expensive than the cheapest ones, is definitely one of the best options to lease and it is worth to take into account before making any final decision.
