Power for the 2013 Chevrolet Sonic RS comes from the same 138-hp Ecotec 1.4 liter turbo engine in the model that is currently available at dealers.

Production begins in October at General Motors’ Orion (Mich.) Assembly Center, which received a $545-million investment in upgrades and retooling, helping create or retain approximately 1,800 jobs in the metropolitan Detroit area. Sonic is the only subcompact built in the United States.
