Chevrolet Sonic 2012 - 2016

Chevrolet Sonic 2012 - 2016

The Chevrolet Sonic is a subcompact car manufactured by Chevrolet. The Sonic was introduced for the 2012 model year, replacing the Aveo. It was available as a sedan or a hatchback. The Sonic was powered by a 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produced 138 horsepower and 148 lb-ft of torque. It was mated to a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission. The Sonic was available in four trim levels: LS, LT, LTZ, and RS. The RS trim added a sport-tuned suspension, a rear spoiler, and unique 17-inch wheels.

The Sonic was praised for its stylish design, its fun-to-drive nature, and its affordability. However, it was also criticized for its cramped interior and its lack of features. In 2015, the Sonic received a facelift that included a new front fascia, new taillights, and a revised interior. The Sonic was discontinued after the 2016 model year.
