Should I Buy the 2020 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 brake pedal has a mushy feel, and the car’s small size contributes to modest backseat legroom. The hatchback’s rear visibility is also an issue.
