2020 Chevrolet Sonic
LS Sedan FWD

$14,979
Overview
The Chevrolet Sonic, offered as both a hatchback and a sedan, occupies the same subcompact segment as the Honda Fit, Kia Rio, and Toyota Yaris. It continues into 2020 relatively unchanged.
The sole engine for the Sonic is a turbocharged 1.4-liter inline 4-cylinder, good for 138 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque. The standard 6-speed automatic transmission sends power to just the front wheels. You can expect fuel economy of 26 mpg city, 34 highway, and 29 combined.
The Sonic benefits from a simple lineup that includes the LS, LT, and Premier trims. The LS, which is available for only the sedan body style, comes standard with 15-inch steel wheels, projector-beam headlights, 4G LTE WiFi hotspot capability, a 7-inch infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and Bluetooth streaming. The LT trim tacks on heated power-adjustable mirrors, 15-inch painted alloy wheels, power windows, cruise control, and premium cloth. Upgrading to the Premier trim gets you 17-inch painted alloy wheels, keyless open and start, perforated leatherette upholstery, heated front seats, and a 6-way power-adjustable driver’s seat. With the rear seats up, the hatchback delivers 19 cubic feet of cargo space. With the rear seats folded, cargo space expands to 47.7 cubic feet. The sedan offers 14.9 cubic feet.
Chevrolet gives every Sonic a reversing camera. You’ll have to pony up for any other safety options like rear parking sensors, forward-collision warning, and lane-departure warning. The Sonic achieved Good scores in its latest round of Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) crash testing. The National Highway Traffic Administration (NHTSA) gave the Sonic a 5-star overall rating.
For a versatile hatchback or sedan, set your sights on the 2020 Sonic.

How much does the 2020 Chevrolet Sonic cost?
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Current Average Price | $11,105 |
| Year-Round Low | $10,634 |
| Year-Round High | $11,643 |
| Average Price a Year Ago | $11,310 |
| Change vs. Last Year | −1.81% |
Prices have softened 1.81% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.
There are 198 listings available, which gives you a reasonable amount of inventory to compare before you buy.
Is the 2020 Chevrolet Sonic a good car?
The market data points to a moderate buy decision rather than an automatic yes or no, so your best move is to focus on the specific listing in front of you. With 27.8% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have some room to shop selectively instead of rushing into the first option you see.
What should I look for when buying a used 2020 Chevrolet Sonic?
At 64.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should start with a vehicle history report and confirm whether any reported damage was repaired properly. Then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially on body panels, alignment, tires, and signs of uneven wear that can reveal past collision work.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 Chevrolet Sonic?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently and still find worthwhile options.
- Deal availability: 27.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 198 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 1.81% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 64.6% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $10,634, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2020 Chevrolet Sonic's resale value?
The current average of $11,105 sits slightly below last year's $11,310.
That suggests the model has softened a bit in the market, which can work against you if you're planning to sell soon. If you buy at a strong price and keep the car in clean condition, you may be able to limit the impact of that downward trend. For a future seller, the key is to avoid overpaying now so you have more room to recover value later.
Should I buy a 2020 Chevrolet Sonic or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2020 if:
- 27.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 64.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 1.81% compared with last year.
The bottom line: If you want the current-year option and can verify condition carefully, the 2020 is a reasonable place to shop because pricing has eased and there are enough listings to compare. If you’re especially price-sensitive, you may want to widen your search to nearby years and focus on the cleanest, best-priced example rather than the newest badge.
