The new Chevy Sonic is a subcompact sedan designed for the quick stop-and-go traffic of the city and suburbs. The Sonic comes in a number of trim packages to provide consumers a choice not only in vehicle looks, but also in performance at multiple Chevy Sonic price levels. Regardless of the trim package you choose, there are a few things you should know about the core vehicle that Chevrolet is offering for this sales season.
Chevy Sonic models
The Chevy Sonic comes in two basic model designs, a sedan version and a hatchback. Both designs are improvements on the previous year's model, with standard features that include blind-spot mirrors and Bluetooth connectivity for your phone. The interior features a roomy design with backseats that easily fit adult passengers.
There's 14 cubic feet of trunk space in the sedan and 19 cubic feet in the hatchback, with the hatchback's second row of seats being able to flip down, which increases the cargo capacity to just over 30 cubic feet. Prices for individual trim packages may vary widely according to options added, but the cost of ownership is only $14,185 for the base model.
Engine and performance
A look under the hood of the vehicle shows that some of the savings in the Chevy Sonic price comes from the standard four-cylinder 1.8-liter engine. The five-speed manual transmission that accompanies the engine helps to give the vehicle an EPA-estimated fuel-economy level of about 25 miles per gallon in the city and 35 mpg on the highway. As an alternative, the transmission can be switched for a six-speed automatic.
Safety features
Safety appears to have been a high consideration with the Sonic manufacturers as all of the models come with side airbags for both front and rear, side curtain airbags and traction and stability control. Several trim models have antilock brakes and all models come with OnStar and its automatic crash notification services for the base Chevy Sonic price.
Government testing places the vehicle high in the car rankings for safety as well, with scores of five stars out of five in safety tests for overall protection for the vehicle. The NHTSA also gave the car its "Good" rating, the highest possible, for side-impact, frontal-offset and roof-strength tests.
