Who doesn’t enjoy a powerful vehicle? The 2017 Chevy Sonic may be a smaller vehicle, but that doesn’t mean it can’t provide quite the punch. The car’s main engine options provide the necessary amount of horsepower and torque to help you zoom down the highway, and the impressive transmission options will make the car easy to control.
Best of all, drivers won’t have to invest a whole lot of money at the gas pump. Thanks to these engines’ incredible fuel efficiency ratings, drivers won’t have to worry about constant fill-ups. Instead, they can focus on all of the amenities that they’re supposed to enjoy.
The 1.4-liter turbocharged engine provides all of the muscle that a driver could possibly ask for. The 138 horsepower may not seem like much, but it’s an incredibly impressive number when you consider how small the vehicle is.

What does this all mean? Well, besides saving money by pursuing the affordable 2017 Chevy Sonic, you’ll also be saving a chunk of money as the gas pump. Who doesn’t like that?

And although the official EPA estimates aren't out yet, Chevy expects the 2017 Sonic to get the same high fuel economy as the 2016 model - up to 35 miles per gallon highway. The 2017 Sonic will also feature an available 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine and available 6-speed automatic or manual transmission, offering enough oomph to push out up to 138 horsepower at what Chevy expects to be a show-stopping 40 miles per gallon highway. With all this get-up-and-go, you're bound to be satisfied with the power the 2017 Sonic brings to the table.
Inside and out, the 2017 Sonic’s design is one of the most underrated aspects of the vehicle. The exterior has been updated to include a number of new amenities, like a new front fascia and an aerodynamic hood. Meanwhile, the interior includes classy upholsteries as well as an incredible amount of cargo room.
Sure, an SUV’s interior and exterior may not be atop your list of priorities as you’re looking for a new vehicle. However, considering all that the 2017 Chevy Sonic has to offer, it’s undoubtedly something that shouldn’t be ignored.
Get ready to forget any preconceived notions you may have had about compact design. This new Sonic, available as a sedan or hatchback, features a refreshed design throughout to give it the sporty look of a performance vehicle without sacrificing the convenience of its smart size.
If you’re purchasing a new car, you obviously want it to look good. Fortunately, the 2017 Sonic is one of the most stylish hatchbacks and sedans on today's market. Engineers updated the vehicle’s exterior, tweaking the hood, front fascia, and even the vibrant LED daytime running lights. This leads to a modern, sportier look that any driver can on board with.
If a potential buyer is really looking to impress, they can opt for the RS package. This offering includes rocker moldings, a rear spoiler, and a three-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel. If you’re really looking to boost the athleticism of your Chevy Sonic, then this is the perfect option for you.
Taking cues from globally successful models like the Bolt EV, Cruze, and upcoming 2017 Trax, the 2017 Sonic features a refined front end, including a new hood design, a new front fascia with the classic Chevy bowtie emblazoned in the center, and new lighting elements like standard projector-beam headlamps and available LED daytime running lamps. A variety of wheel sizes - 15, 16, and 17-inch, offer you the opportunity to choose exactly the kind of look you want on your Sonic. Plus, with a new rear fascia and four available colors for your choosing - Orange Burst Metallic, Brimstone, Cajun Red Tintcoat, and Arctic Blue Metallic - you can make your Sonic your own and still be sure to get great modern style, regardless.
The interior continues that athleticism with sleek angles and modern technology. For those seeking comfort and entertainment, you’d be hard pressed to find a vehicle that offers a better bang for its buck than the Sonic. With comfy seats and a classy cabin, all of your occupants will enjoy what the vehicle has to offer.
However, the vehicle is truly known for its incredible (and surprising) amount of interior room. Thanks to the 60/40 split-folding rear seats (available in both the sedan and the hatchback), drivers will be able to unlock significantly more interior room. For example, the hatchback provides drivers with 47.7-cubic-feet of cargo room, making it easy to store any kind of luggage or equipment.
The interior of the 2017 Chevy Sonic revolves around three main principles: comfort, convenience, and technology. Built to comfortably hold up to five passengers, the Sonic provides plenty of cargo space and comfort amenities to turn any boring drive into a desirable ride. Available heated cloth seats with a new heated steering wheel and power driver's seat bring tactile luxury into this bold interior design, while a new, detailed gauge cluster that includes an analog speedometer helps to introduce a bit of refinement to the cockpit. Together, these new comfort and convenience features help make the Sonic one of the best passenger experiences on our radar for the 2017 model year.
You'll never roam without entertainment again in the 2017 Sonic, which includes a 7-inch-diagonal infotainment system specially designed to host all your favorite connectivity tech. This includes the latest in mobile connectivity like Apple CarPlay, Android Auto compatibility, and 4G LTE throughout, as well as a Wi-Fi hotspot that reaches up to 50 feet from the vehicle itself - meaning you and your guests can stay connected on the road and never miss a beat just because you're driving, and keep the party rolling even during those low-key tailgates. Connect up to seven devices at a time - from smartphones to laptops and tablets - and keep the fun flowing no matter where you find yourself. And with additional convenience tech like Keyless Open and Start and available navigation with Google Maps, you may just feel as though you're stepping into the future with this highly-anticipated new Sonic.
Of course, today's drivers know that, while entertainment and convenience amenities may be a lot more fun to interact with, nothing is more valuable in a new vehicle than top-tier safety tech to keep you out of harm's way. That's why the new 2017 Sonic features some of today's most advanced responsive and preventative safety tech, all working together to help you mitigate damage on the road and prevent it from happening whenever possible.
In the event that something were to happen while piloting your Sonic, advanced seatbelts in every seat, 10 standard airbags surrounding your passengers, and a high-strength steel cage all work together to keep you and your passengers out of harm's way. Ready to crumple and absorb energy as need be, this system prevents the worst injuries by keeping passengers from jerking suddenly in the event of a collision.
A standard rear-vision camera gives you a better view of what's around you when pulling out or reversing into or out of a tight space, and available rear park assist helps you stay in the right direction when taking on those tight parallel parks. Working with other advanced safety tech - like advanced Forward Collision Alert and available Lane Departure Warning - you'll find your Sonic working as hard as you do to make sure you and your passengers are safe on the roads.
