The Chevrolet Sonic is here to stay. The Sonic has taken the place of the Aveo, and done that very well. The styling is more forward-looking, the handling is more responsive, the interior more spacious and the engine responds more quickly. The turbo-charged four-cylinder optional engine is definitely a big plus. The entire look and feel of the new Sonic is just a little more substantial. The modest price tag is somewhat misleading.

The Sonic is available as a sedan or as a four-door hatchback model. Either of these styles looks great. The most basic trim has some premium features, including alloy wheels, air-conditioning, a tilt steering wheel that is also telescoping.  Also included with the basic trim is the ever-popular OnStar system and an auxiliary audio jack. Even more impressive features are optionally available with the 2012 Sonic. Choose such luxuries as iPod interface and Bluetooth connectivity, premium leatherette upholstery and the comfort of heated seats.

A 1.8 liter four-cylinder that produces 138 horsepower and 125 pound-feet of torque are also standard with the new Sonic. If you want a little more power, an optional package is available with a 1.4 liter four-cylinder turbo-charged engine. The turbo-charged engine produces a 148 pound-feet of torque. The manual transmission is standard and the six-speed automatic transmission is optional. Even with the six-speed auto transmission, the turbo gas mileage is a little better than with the manual transmission.

All in all, the 2012 Sonic is worth some serious consideration. See it for yourself at Wilson County Motors!
