The 2019 Chevrolet Sonic is the ultra-compact car of the year, and it’s ready to take the streets by storm. Don’t let its size fool you — it’s unexpectedly spacious for a car in its class and provides a nimble drive perfect for the city. Here are our favorite parts of the 2019 Chevy Sonic.
Compact Class and Style
The 2019 Chevy Sonic is just 159.8 inches long in its hatchback form. Being just over 13 feet makes it able to navigate where other bulkier cars can’t go. In 2016, the Sonic was voted “Most Dependable Small Car” by J.D. Power. But aside from its dependability and capability, the 2019 Sonic is simply a fun car to drive. It has a personality that you won’t soon forget, thanks to its confident stance, expressive paint colors, and dynamic performance.
Surprising Space
Once you’re inside the Sonic, you’ll discover the optical illusion — a surprising amount of interior space you wouldn’t expect from a compact car. With the rear seats folded, you open up the cabin up to 47.7 cubic feet of cargo space. The Sonic is available as a sedan or a hatchback, which offers the most cargo space out of the two. Pack what you need for the adventure ahead. Whether you need to fit five people in the cabin or a month’s worth of groceries, the Sonic has you covered.
Power Punch
Each Sonic comes standard with a 1.4-liter turbocharged Ecotec engine that delivers 138 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque, which lets you tackle trips like they’re child’s play. Choose between the six-speed automatic or manual transmission. The Sonic’s engine design allows it to achieve a 26 mpg rating in the city and 34 on the highway, which saves you money at the gas pumps.
Superior Tech
The 2019 Sonic’s integrated touch screen lets you connect to your phone using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. These systems let you use a great number of your phone’s features through the touch screen, including navigation, messages, phone calls, music streaming apps, and more. The available built-in 4G Wi-Fi hot spot ensures you’ll never be left without a connection. All told, the 2019 Sonic knows that life doesn’t stop when you get into your car — it lets you stay connected, no matter the situation.
Safety First
Most importantly, any car should do what it can to keep you and your family safe. The 2019 Sonic is equipped with 10 airbags, which is a first for its class. Upgrade to the available forward collision alert and lane departure warning to be more aware of possible dangers and avoid them. These are just a handful of the ways Chevrolet works to provide you with the safest cars they can produce.
