Sonic is available in two bodystyles: a sporty five-door hatchback (and stylish four-door sedan). Each offers class-leading rear-seat space and cargo space. A variety of connectivity features improve the driving experience.
"The all-new Chevrolet Sonic combines practical for a small car with a passion for driving, such as the Chevrolet Corvette is known for," said Chris Perry, vice president of marketing for Chevrolet. "His combination of good design, a pleasant driving experience and the latest connectivity standard features create a strong competitor with a playful spirit."
Sonic begins production later in 2011 at the General Motors Orion Assembly Center in Michigan, which received an investment of $ 545 million in the modernization and reorganization, and help restore about 1,000 jobs in the Detroit metropolitan area.
"Chevrolet is the only company to build a small car in the U.S.," says Perry. "We believe that Sonic is going to put the substance on the segment, with style, performance and value that will gradually change the perception of what may be a small car in America. "

Remote start, heated front seats and sunroof, all rarities in the segment
• The comprehensive security features include 10 airbags, antilock brakes, electronic distribution of braking force, brake assist and OnStar with automatic collision response.
Progressive exterior design.
From every angle, five-door hatchback models Sonic and to transmit the power, stability and refinement. Largo, planting the position, wheels-at-the-corners of the proportions, to broadcast the performance. Progressive, the rake body lines show movement even if the car is stationary.
Ideas between aggressive fenders, and a motorcycle-inspired round headlights, mixed global design tips - two grille and taillights round - immediately recognizable as a Chevrolet model. At the cutting edge of the hood on the edge of a light fog, who runs an elegant side profile, characterized by a continuous side of the body lines, high beltline and low roofline. The mirrors have the same shape of the car and seems to disappear from the profile.
The sedan and hatchback models are very different. The five-door model has a tight, two boxes in the form of aggression, the characteristic lines of diving, while the sedan "sedan" to a more elegant and mature. At first glance, the five-door model looks like a three-door hatch because the rear door handles are discreetly located in the "C" pillar. The rear of the saloon continues with unconventional details, including the presentations, the taillights on the rear of the motorcycle-inspired.
Details that enhance the sound quality and attention to details include chrome grille and inserts matte black honeycomb grille on all models, while a number of large wheel sizes, including alloy wheels 17 inches, strengthens its sporting behavior.
Inspired interiors.
Sonic Complete cabin out with a motorcycle inspired by the detailed instrument panel with a large round analog tachometer built in a biased reading, LCD digital speedometer large.
Other interior highlights include:
• half of the surface of the dashboard is available in two colors (titanium, dark brick) and flow seamlessly into upper doors with glass surfaces with a low altitude
• The automatic shifter is a "cobra head" design ", while the manual shifter has a button chrome
• Climate outboard tube sockets protrude from the surface of the dashboard.
Interior storage compartments in the center console and doors. Folding rear seats for carrying larger items. Front seats are standard, and heated front seats are available.
Cruze-based powertrains.
Sonic Chevrolet models are powered by efficient, high power density, small displacement engines, including turbo Ecotec 1.8L Ecotec 1.4 L and - the same engine used in the new Chevrolet Cruze. Three transmissions are available: a five-speed manual and six-speed automatic with manual transmission and a 1.8L six-speed with the 1.4L turbo.
Ecotec 1.4l Turbo power values are about 138 horsepower (103 kW) and 148 Nm of torque (200 Nm) between 1850 rpm and 4900 rpm. Wide range of torque rpm - a special feature of turbocharged engines - to help the engine to produce a better ride and performance. Prize elements of interior design to give the engine a world-class smoothness and durability. Features include:
• low mass hollow cast iron block
• Dual overhead camshafts with variable valve timing
• The chain-driven camshafts
• overhead cam followers roller finger
• Piston oil spray cooling-oil cooler integrated
• Variable flow oil pump
• electronic thermostat.
Turbocharged 1.4l 's is integrated into the exhaust manifold, for reduced weight and greater packaging flexibility in smaller vehicles. Reinforced crankshaft and stronger connecting rods provide extra strength to support the power and torque of the engine under pressure on a wide rpm band.
Ecotec 1.8l naturally aspirated engine is much the same features, 1.4l Ecotec turbo. It is a compact and sturdy four-cylinder engine is designed for low maintenance, low emissions and fuel consumption. The two-stage variable intake manifold allows for approximately 90 percent of torque is available at 2400 rpm to 6500 rpm. It has about 135 horsepower (101 kW) and 123 Nm of torque (167 Nm) at 3800 rpm.
Designed for agile handling, sporty handling.

Electronic power steering is standard and has a wear compensator, which continuously adjusts the system's interaction with government action to ensure precise control over system life.
The body structure of Sonic is designed to be one of the stiffest in the segment. Rigidity has allowed the engineers to adjust the precise ride and handling. Sonic only "higher plane" of the crib, for example, offers an optimal rigidity in front of the chassis of the vehicle. The rear axle is essentially a linear axis contour without packing containment and reduction of noise, vibration and harshness.
Range of tire sizes are also available with 17-inch wheels and sport tires. Advanced front disc and rear drum brakes are standard on four-channel anti-lock brakes either. Four sensor system - one for each wheel - with electronic brake force distribution, which balances the braking power is based on factors such as road conditions and the weight of passengers and / or goods.
