Munday Chevrolet

The 2012 Chevrolet Sonic is gaining quite a reputation for itself as a quality, dependable vehicle. This comes as no surprise to those that know the rigorous road tests the new Sonic went through during its quality inspections- before it hit dealerships. One of the best examples of this advanced durability testing is the accumulation of what Chevrolet calls "Seth Miles." This special collection of 14,000 miles was racked up by Seth Valentine, Quality Manager for the vehicle.

Great news, readers! Both the 4-and 5-door variants of the new 2012 Chevrolet Sonic have received a 5-star overall rating for safety, as determined by the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration). The Sonic is now one of ten 2012 GM models with a perfect safety score. Gay Kent, Executive Director of Vehicle Safety for GM explains the importance of these ratings, stating, "We developed Sonic to exceed customer expectations of subcompacts in terms of segment-leading safety features. From the largest vehicles in our lineup to the smallest, we are putting overall crashworthiness and state-of-the-art safety technologies at the top of the list of must-haves." ¹.
