Fine Features
Chevrolet puts OnStar connectivity on every Sonic. This allows you to choose a WiFi connection for your smart devices. A Chevy MyLink system puts a touch screen on the dash. It offers Apple CarPlay and Android Auto which multiply the number of apps you can access off of your phone. For instance, you can put Google Maps or Apple Maps on your screen and control it with voice commands just like you would with a built-in navigation system. A tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel has mounted audio and phone controls. All of this connectivity helps it rise above its class rivals.
Safety Standards
Ten airbags offer advanced protection for Sonic passengers. That’s four more airbags than the majority of cars, including most of the Sonic’s subcompact competitors. To keep out impact, a high-strength steel cage is part of the cabin’s structure. Crash avoidance is stressed by Brake Assist, Hill Start Assist, and other functions of the Stabilitrak system. There are exterior safety details, too, such as the available power-heated side mirrors, automatic headlights and foglamps.
A rearview camera is on board to watch for danger behind you. You can also get a lane departure warning to help the driver avoid side swiping another vehicle. A forward collision warning makes sure the driver realizes that traffic is slowing or stopping too quickly for the Sonic’s current rate of speed. Get a loan for your new car.
Choosing the Right Sonic for You
Sonics come in sedan and hatchback styles with a variety of trims. This allows shoppers to pick the type of car that suits their lifestyle. If you choose the RS package, you can go sporty with a decklid rear spoiler and muscular rocker moldings.
For many people, choosing comes down to cargo capability. The sedan has a remarkably big trunk for its class. It measures 14.9 cu.ft., making it more on par with the trunks in some midsized sedans. On the other hand, the hatchback has the advantage of a folded rear seat. This allows it to offer 47.7 cu.ft. of open space.
From first-time car buyers to empty nesters, this car is a logical pick. You can discover all of its charms when you take a test drive at Nester Chevrolet dealer Traverse City MI.
