2013 Chevrolet Sonic Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

Pros: Decent gas mileage (especially for the price point and not being a hybrid). Nice infotainment system. Very reliable, haven't had any major mechanical issues. Con: not terribly roomy inside. Cannot use for rideshare in this case.

Its light and sporty while being safe. It fits anywhere because it is compact. It also fits 4 adults on a quick trip. I love the motorcycle interior with the gauges. The front seat buckets are race style and fit the torso comfortably.

The Chevy Sonic has several positive attributes. It has very good gas mileage and rides well for long distances. This type of driving has put minimal wear and tear on the vehicle. It has proven to be reliable with mostly basic maintenance being the largest costs. Tire for the vehicle are relatively inexpensive and wear well. The seating in the front and the room in the trunk is very good. The vehicle rides well for long trips.

This vehicle is very fuel efficient. The inside of the car, when you are in it, really feels larger than looking at it from the outside. Has options for USB, aux & cigarette lighter/chargers. There is decent trunk/storage space- I have especially enjoyed the hatchback. Also- parallel parking is a BREEZE.

It has been a good car. It has taken a lot of side trips around our state. Great on gas. Has auto lock doors to lock and unlock. Also has OnStar which is great if you need help or directions which I do.

One of the pros is that the gas mileage is great. City driving still gets a decent amount of mileage and the most mileage I have gotten on open highway has been 35-38 mpg. It is also very comfortable to take long road trips in.

My car gets good gas mileage, is very reliable and fair price for a brand new car. I use it to drive back and forth to work out of town. It is also easy to keep clean and has plenty of space. I like that I can use my Sirius radio and that it has the ability for OnStar.

It save a lot on gas. It also have great interior seats inside of it. My car also is great on tire servicing it does not wear tires at all. It have great air conditioning and you can also connect your phone to it so you don't have to pick up your phone while you are driving your car to your destination.

Not terribly roomy inside so I cannot use for rideshare side gig if I wanted to. The front decorative trim was easily damaged. Seems like there is just styrofoam behind the front grill. Cannot think of any other negatives.

In a lot of traffic it is difficult to see around and over the bigger vehicles. For similar cars in its class, the MPG is on the low side. It is not good in deeper snow. The 1.8 Engine is hard to get up to speed on the highway.

The primary con has been that is does not accelerate very quickly. This can be problematic when attempting to merge on the an Interstate highway. The AC system can be problematic at times. I am hoping to not have to replace it before I replace the car.

It can be a little cramped if you have three people in the backseat. There is also one cup holder available for the back row, thought the front seats each have two (one each in the middle and in the door). It is not as up-to-date technologically, so there is no GPS/backup camera/touch screen console.

Not enough leg room saxe I am 5ft 9 inch tall. I like the color at first my I think I would go with a different color little darker not a light silver shows the grim and dirt faster. But it has been a good car for these years. I only now drive it 1 or 2 days a week.

It is hard to think of any cons because this vehicle has been wonderful. A con would be the legroom in the back seat if taller people are in the front and have to have the front seat back a good bit.

The outside is not very sturdy material. The front bumper has been falling off for years. I always have issues with the tire pressure light. It always stinks after the air conditioner is turned off even after changing air filters.

The cons are I bought it as is so I don't have a warranty on it. When something goes wrong with it I have to pay it out of pocket. For example, battery repair, oil change, and any other major repair that needs to be done.
