Sonic The Chevrolet comes in two body styles: a sleek four-door sedan and sporty five-door. Each one offers top notch width of the rear seats and cargo space. A variety of connectivity features improve the driving experience.
"The new Chevrolet Sonic combines the convenience of a small car with a passion to drive the Chevrolet Corvette, as we know," said Chris Perry, vice president of marketing for Chevrolet. "Its combination of great design, a fun driving experience and connectivity features to create a serious competitor with a positive spirit."
Production of Chevrolet Sonic will begin later in 2011, the General Motors Orion Assembly Center in Michigan, which received $ 545 million investment in upgrades and re-regulation, and helps to restore about 1,000 jobs in the metropolitan Detroit .
"Chevrolet is the only company to build a small car in the United States," said Perry. "We believe that Sonic will segment materials, progressive design, performance and value, which is to change the perception of a small car can be in America."

Progressive aspect
From every angle, Sonic Chevrolet sedan and five-door models have the strength, stability and refinement. A wide, planted the position, with wheels at the corners proportions, reflects performance. Progressive raked the lines of the body suggests movement, even when the car is stationary.
Indices aggressive, including fender flares and motorcycle-inspired round headlights are mixed with elements of global design - a two-tier grille taillamps and round - to design an instantly recognizable as a Chevrolet. The front of the cap to form a character line above the headlights that flow into a sleek side profile characterized by unbroken lines side of the body, a high beltline and low roofline. The mirrors of the same shape as the car and apparently disappears in the profile.
And five-door hatchback models are clearly different. Five ports located on a narrow, two boxes with an aggressive form, diving property lines, while the sedan is "fair", the profile is more sophisticated and mature presence. At first glance, the five-door has a three-door hatch because the rear door handles discreetly located in the "C" pillars. Behind the five-door will continue unconventional features such as exposed, the back of a motorcycle-inspired taillights.
The data, which confirm the quality of the Sonic Chevrolet and attention to detail are surrounded by a chrome grille and a matte black honeycomb grille adds on all models, but a wide range of tire sizes, including 17 inch alloy wheels, confirms its sporty handling.

Cruze-based propulsion systems
Sonic Chevrolet models are powered by an efficient, power-dense, small-displacement engine, turbo Ecotec including 1.4l and 1.8l Ecotec - the same engines used for the new Chevrolet Cruze. Three transmissions are available: five-speed manual and six-speed automatic with a manual six-speed 1.8le with a 1.4l turbo.
1.4 L Ecotec turbo powers are estimated at 138 horsepower (103 kW) and 148 lb.-ft. of torque (200 Nm) between 1,850 rpm and rpm 4900. The wide speed range of torque - a specific characteristic of turbocharged engines - helps the engine provide a better driving experience and performance. Premium design elements give the engine of world-class smoothness and durability. Features include:
Low mass den-part cast iron block
Double overhead camshafts with variable
Chain-driven camshafts
Followers camshaft roller finger
Oil spray piston cooling oil cooler integrated
Oil pump with variable flow
