If you’re a dealer in college town or a city with a good number of folks ready to head  off to school, you may want to pay attention to the latest used-car list from Edmunds.com.

The site has pinpointed what it considers to be the 11 best used cars and SUVs for college students, based on their unique needs — and this listing  may also prove to be a solid selling point on your lot.

Among the attributes of rides in this group are the following, as listed by Edmunds: modern electronic features, distinctive style, versatile cargo area, good crash rating and low cost of ownership.

"When you look at the list, you will notice that that we left out sensible used car choices like the Honda Civic, Toyota RAV4 or Ford Fusion," said James Riswick, used car editor for Edmunds.com. "While these are all great options, they are generic enough to appeal to anyone, and we wanted to craft a list specifically based on what matters most to today's students."

Below are the Top 11 Used Cars for College Students:

Mazda 3 (2004-'09): $4,000-$15,000

Honda CR-V (2002-'06): $4,900-$13,000

Scion tC (2005-'10): $5,000-$15,000
