Summary Of Our Early Findings Relevant To The Goals
Our first hour of research provided insights that directly answer some of the questions, but we were unable to tackle the entire ask due to time constraints.
According to a report by CNBC, the average cost of a new car in the U.S. is
$36,718
. Therefore, for this research, we will assume the reasonable cost of a family car to be less than $50,000. If this is not acceptable, it should be communicated to us with the price range for the family car options.
Please select one or more of the options provided in the proposed scoping section below.
