When it comes to purchasing a vehicle, studies show that Generation Z is full of pragmatic buyers who put a heavy focus on price, lifestyle and connection when choosing the ride that's right for them. 

Here are some of the top vehicles for buyers between the ages of 16 and 25.

Crossovers/SUVs

Jeep Wrangler

Honestly, it’s hard to even classify Jeeps as a crossover. Jeeps are their own thing — and that’s attractive to Gen Z buyers. Jeeps are rugged, reliable, resilient and dependable. Also, the resale value of a Wrangler is insanely good. Jeeps are a celebration of both individualism and community. Next time you see someone who drives a Wrangler, just ask them what the “Jeep wave” is and you’ll understand why it’s the ultimate lifestyle car.
