2016 Chevrolet Sonic RS Hatchback Sedan 4D Standard Features
2016 Chevrolet Sonic
KBB.com Review
Kbb.com Expert Rating
Highlights of the 2016 Sonic include a starting price around $15,000, a fuel-economy rating that reaches up to 40 mpg when equipped with the optional turbo engine, and snazzy tech features like a touch-screen display and in-car Wi-Fi.
If many highway miles are in your future, consider stepping up a size to something more substantial like the Chevy Cruze or Honda Civic. Parents of new drivers may want to check out the Scion iA, which comes standard with safety features like a rearview camera and low-speed collision-prevention system.
