Should I Buy the 2019 Chevrolet Sonic?
The Sonic rides well, and road noise is well-managed. The front seats are comfortable, and we like the car's storage features, too. However, the Sonic's small size contributes to modest backseat legroom, and the hatchback version's rear visibility is an issue, as is its mushy-feeling brake pedal. It's also worth noting that the RS Package doesn't include performance upgrades.
