The base-level Sonic LS comes standard with 15-inch steel wheels, automatic headlights, OnStar, a blind-spot mirror, power locks, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, keyless entry, air-conditioning, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, Bluetooth phone connectivity, and an auxiliary audio jack.

EPA-estimated fuel economy is 28 mpg combined with the automatic and 30 mpg combined with the manual. We’d say that’s pretty much right on par with other vehicles in this segment.

The interior design is smart and organized, and all features and controls are clearly labeled and in smart positions.
