2013 Chevrolet Sonic LS Hatchback Sedan 4-door35
2013 Chevrolet Sonic Review
By KBB.com EditorsIn sedan or 5-door hatchback configuration, the 2013 Chevy Sonic is the quietest and most composed subcompact car you can buy. Combined with more conventional styling than some of its key competitors,
The 2013 Chevy Sonic isn't the smallest car in the category, but it's not as accommodating or flexible as the 2013 Honda Fit. Nor is the interior as polished as that of the 2013 Hyundai Accent
Around town and on the highway, the 2013 Chevy Sonic sets a new standard for subcompact driving refinement. As a whole, the offerings in this category have become less skittish and less buzzy in recent years, but Chevrolet's Sonic for 2013 drives like a bigger, pricier car than any of its competitors. It's not perfect, though. The up-level turbocharged engine available on LT, RS and LTZ models offers excellent fuel economy but suffers from somewhat quirky power delivery. Fortunately, the base-level 1.8-liter engine costs less, is availa

"Many say their mileage is not as claimed however I routinely get 41 mpg or more on the highway running at 70 mph. My car is a tad over a year old and the mileage continues to get better. I have not had any problems whatsoever so the quality is fantastic. The 1.4 L turbo is the engine to get (which I have) it has more power and is the mpg winner of the two. The car is very quite inside, I didn't expect that. I think Chevy hit one out of the park with the Sonic. I would highly recommend this car."

"This is my second Sonic. My first was the 2012 LT Inferno Orange hatchback. I was plesantly surprised when it got exactally what the window sticker said on MPG. THAT is very rare. Since then I have traded it in and upgraded to a Black Granite Metallic LTZ hatchback with the 1.4L turbo and automatic transmission. With the 17" black rims, the car has a very sporty look. But, it doesn't only look like fun, it is fun. The handling is precise and responsive. Enough so that I'm certain at least twice this vehicle's responsiveness has helped me avoid an accident. The interior with the connectivity and features makes this a car that I have no problem being in for a long trip or a simple commute. With OnStar, MyLink, BringGo Nav, TunedIn radio, Pandora, Sticher, XM Radio, USB hook up, sunroof, heated seats, leatherette, and so forth and so on . . .I'm never bored in this car! For city driving and parking in tight spaces, fuel economy, modern day connectivity, this Sonic is perfect. My only critisism would be that the armrest could be a little more substantial. However; I hardly use it any way. If you are looking for a subcompact urban car that is not afraid of the highway, this is your choice."
