The new Sonic replaces the Aveo in Chevrolet's lineup. Although identical to the next generation Aveo sold worldwide, the US version was renamed Sonic and is built in America. Compared to the Cruze sedan, the 5-door hatch is about 6 inches shorter in wheelbase and 2 inches narrower. Like the Cruze, the Sonic is offered with either a 1.8l four-cylinder engine or a turbocharged 1.4l. Both engines have similar output.
