The 2015 Chevy Sonic sedan and hatchback are cute, fun to drive, extremely good on gas, priced to sell, and full of features younger buyers covet (like built-in Wi-Fi). Cool colors and a very high-end looking interior should help seal the deal.
If you’re not a fan of really small cars, a little more cash can put you into a more substantial compact like the Hyundai Elantra, Ford Focus, Chevy Cruze or Honda Civic. You might also aim for something a bit more customizable like the Fiat 500 or Mini Cooper.
