2012 Chevrolet Sonic

Trim: LS
by FromTheSnow on 11-28-2015
Great Daily Driver.
1.8L, 5spd manual. Got it in April since my old car crapped out. Got it with 35,000kms & 14 months of bumper to bumper warranty left on it. Other then some sensors replaced under warrenty, it has been plenty reliable. Its fast enough to be a daily driver. I find in 5th gear on the highway @100kmh it is turning 2500rpm, then @115kph it is turning 3000rpm. By the point it is getting buzzy. My average fuel composition is 7.3L/100km, that is semi hard driving The interior build quality is comparable to the aisles in Toys'r'Us, had plastics for days, but it is a cheap GM not an S-Class. It does its intended purpose well, basic transportation from Point A - B. I would not buy another one, but I would for sure recommend it for a cheap daily driver.

Great car with great features!
Awesome car in design, function and fuel efficiency! Huge trunk and ample leg room in front and back. Driver bucket seat hugs your body for a comfortable drive. 2 glove box spaces are handy as is the driver armrest. Great dash display and handy steering wheel controls. Great visibility for driver with wide windshield and rear window. A nice ride, overall. And looks great too!!

2012 Chevrolet Sonic

My Opinion of the Chevrolet Sonic
My experience with this vehicle thus far has been good. It gets me from point A to point B for an affordable price. It doesn't have the power you want when you go full throttle, but this vehicle wasn't meant for that. The people sitting in the back might feel a little crammed. This car would be good to own if you live in the city because you don't need to go too fast, and this vehicle has this eco-boost technology that will help save you some gas. In the end, I enjoy my Sonic because it's a fun little hatchback to cruise around town in.

Well Worth It
My wife and I bought this car after selling our 2008 Aveo and the Chevrolet brand has once again come thru for us. The car is great on gas which is very important these days.
