2019 Sonic MPG

[dannyg]

The official EPA MPG numbers are available:

https://fueleconomy.gov/feg/Find.do?action=sbs&id=40692&id=40727&id=40691&id=40726

It shows the sedan/stick as the most fuel-efficient with 38MPG highway. (All 2019 are 1.4T.) The automatic hatch is rated at 34MPG highway. Hatch/stick is in between at 35MPG highway.

Might replace my 2015 LS with a 2019 LS this winter if there's another juicy 20% discount...

The 2018 1.4T sedan/stick has slightly different MPG rating:

Not sure how they figure this considering that the two automatics get the same MPG. The manuals varying 3MPG doesn’t make much sense to me.

Good point. I can see the hatch being say 5% lower on highway MPG due to aero...but then the automatic would be 5% lower too!
