I think this is definitely great MPG. It is not perfect but the number is very high compared to other cars. So much that you can get from the sonic car. Keep up the good work. Telluride Reservations

Its not the automakers fault. Blame the U.S. safety nannies for the post 2003 overall higher cost to own. I smell big oil somewhere in all this combined with a little indophobia. The automakers took one look at India and told the nanny politicians lets do this.

I bought the Sonic eco turbo 3/16/12. My other vehicle is a Lincoln Navigator Ultimate, mpg city 8. It was between $180-$210 a week for gas. I have put gas in the sonic on 2 occasions for a total of $46 that will get me to this weekend (a two week total). As far as I am concerned it pays for itself. It is the sedan, the steering is tight and has great pick up… fun to drive! It is manual and I am doing better than projected with the mpg. $16,800 for this car and a 6year/60,000 Warr. as opposed to the close to $10,000 in gas last year, I don’t have to feel like such a gashole.

that for drivers not worried about losing a little space, the sedan comes in at a discount of about $1,200 compared to the Cruze.Web Hosting Reviews

We have had a Volt for a year now and its great. Our electric bill has barely changed and we have put gas in it once every 3 months 6 to 7 gallons. The ride and functions are great. After filing our taxes with the credit and savings on gas, we have already benefited. Gas keeps climbing, it has been one of our best financial decisions.

The chevy volt is the biggest joke of all —100 mpg on the first gallon —what is the mileage on the second mile——-If you never drive over 100 miles it is fine other wise it dont justify the additional cost.

Chevy let us down again. I have a HURT and love it. Was thinking about trading for a Volt, but not for $40+ grand that they want. It seems that GM over priced it to get their hands on the tax incentive. What a rip off.
The Cruz was another consideration, but wanted the hatchback model that is only offered in Europe.
When is GM going to get their act together?

Finally, GM is offering something comparable to the golf. I had 2, one diesel, the other 1.8 liter GTI. I loved both.

Remember the Chevette? I had 2 of those as well. Not reliable, no power, built at least it was a compact four door hatchback with a standard shift. But I could fix them and they were cheap to maintain. Basic utility car.

At least this is a contender and they can build on it. I would buy it. It looks cool. It is reasonably priced and does not look like an Asian, fish faced car. It is robust looking and has a stout, aggressive aesthetic. This does not mean it is European styling. Get over that script. Also, finally a 1.8 liter turbo, standard five speed.

What took so long.

How does it perform? Is it fun to drive?
Can it run up mountains fully loaded. My old Golfs could.
