In the segment of compact cars which will be comparatively smaller than the crossovers, and more significantly from the SUVs, few cars are making good sales for the said reason. Among them, we found the 2020 Chevrolet Sonic to be securing a good place in the scale of popularity.
To put it in simple words, the 2020 Chevrolet Sonic makes a solid choice among the crowd of small cars, when the automotive world is more focused and obsessed with the crossover SUVs. It could do so because of its unexpectedly good value packaging, impressive safety gears, and nimble handling that parallels its performance scores. When we asked a group of test drivers of the Humble Chevrolet dealer, they appreciated its engaging drive experiences both in the hatchback and sedan models. The sales staff there also told us that this small car from Chevrolet has outsold several crossovers that fall within this price range.
2020 Model Year Improvements
The year 2020 didn’t bring much changes to the series of Chevrolet Sonic except for few. These changes include the addition of two new shades to the color palette of its exterior paint. Chevrolet calls them as Oasis Blue and Cayenne Orange Metallic. But more significantly, the 2020 Sonic models are loaded with a couple of turbo-4 engines that get automatic transmission only for now, while the earlieroutgoing naturally aspirated base engine is replaced by a new one.
Closest Competitors
The 2020 Sonic isn’t the smallest car from Chevy. But it is surely one of those pint-sized compact cars that is aimed to make the economy class happy, both in terms of its base price and in fuel consumption. These being reasons enough, the 2020 Chevrolet Sonic keeps winning the battle with thepossibly-shrinking segment of subcompacts with its own set of value packaging. If you want to judge the 2020 Chevrolet Sonic in terms of its outward and inner looks, then again it beats its closest rivals Honda Fit and Hyundai Accent. It is sharper from both of these two models in its overall gamut from its outward appearance while its interior layout is much more business-like than its own earlier refresh versions, that pushed the 2020 Sonic parallel to that of Kia Rio, with itsupdated, refined looks.
Inside its neatly arranged cabin, the 2020 Chevrolet Sonic offers more than enough space for four adults and a proportionately good cargo room.
Lineup Model Versions
Chevy makes the 2020 lineup of Sonic available both in hatchback and sedan body style. The trim versions differ in the engine capacities and transmission choices. the turbo 4 engine gets to pair with an automatic transmission, resulting into a decent fuel economy score reading 29 mpg from a combined trip.
The Bottom Line
As learned from the Humble Chevrolet dealership, safety scores of the 2020 Chevrolet Sonic are impressive which is quite unexpectedly good for its own segment. On the driving front, the 2020 Chevrolet Sonic manages to get enough fun for both the driver and passengers making them feel comfortable through the ride.
