Chevrolet Sonic Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2013 4dr Sedan turbocharged 138hp 1.4L I4
6-speed manual FWD
The fuel economy is excellent on this car as long as you are not on the pedal too heavy. Freeway (70-75 mph) mileage is around 40 to 42 mpg. Rural highway (55-62 mph) 42-46 mpg. The worst mpg i have every experienced is 36.5. This was mostly in town with the AC on. see full Chevrolet Sonic review
2012 4dr Sedan turbocharged 138hp 1.4L I4

Have never got below 37.7 miles to the gallon. I do drive conservatively but even when my husband who drives significantly more aggressive the gas mileage has been excellent see full Chevrolet Sonic review

I had a Choice between My Current Car, a Kia Rio , a Ford Focus and Mazda 3. Between ALL these only the Sonic was a Certified Pre-Owned Vheicle and the others were not. The Fuel economy was ALMOST the Same..but i thought the Sonic had faired A Tad bit better. see full Chevrolet Sonic review
