Gas Mileage:32 MPG combined

The Chevrolet Sonic is an affordable hatchback starting at a decent price point just above $15,000 for the base model of the automobile. Similar to other car manufacturers, the company commonly offers a $500 student bonus for purchases of the car. The exterior design of the Sonic is considered above average, while its safety rating falls in the middle of the pack when compared to other compact cars that are popular with students. The seat support and comfort of the vehicle is also rated as average, but the car is considered “entertaining” to drive and is a popular choice amongst college students who are looking for a decent ride for the money to get themselves through school.
