Two-door cars are becoming a bit of a rarity on today’s roads with the segment going mostly high end.
A few automakers, however, continue to produce coupes, convertibles and two-door hatchbacks at prices mortals can still afford.
We’ve got a list of the two-doors cars available in Canada in 2025 at prices below $60,000, fees and levies included. There are even a pair of EVs listed here. We also point out whether a manual transmission is available and whether the car has front-wheel, rear-wheel or all-wheel drive. Two-door utility vehicles such as pickup trucks and SUVs are excluded from this list.
The following article is neither a review nor a recommendation, it is simply a list of what’s available. Starting advertised price is the manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP), plus fees and levies. Fees and levies may differ by location. Tax is extra. Dealers may set their own prices. Check with your local dealer for an exact price.
The list is in descending order.

The Mini Cooper was recently redesigned with new, minimalist look, both inside and out, but the automaker was sure to maintain the same go-kart driving attitude.

The standard car is powered by a 2-litre engine producing 161 hp mated to a dual-clutch seven-speed automatic transmission sending power to the front wheels.
