Chevy, for instance, showed a Sonic RS concept at the 2010 Detroit Auto Show and bragged about its 138 hp mill. If the RS comes in at 2800 pounds, my math shows weight/hp @ 20-sumpthing. <br /><br />But since you've already driven the heavier Cruze with this engine and you liked it, it sounds like you will like the Sonic RS even more. This is a win-win, as Honda Odyssey drivers and most modern traffic will enjoy gazing upon your smiling face as your redlined new Chevy hot hatch recedes in their rear view mirrors.The Car Czarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486742649639876970.post-59244542674405063172011-06-18T14:52:19.878-04:002011-06-18T14:52:19.878-04:00congrats on showing your ineptitude and ignorance....congrats on showing your ineptitude and ignorance. There is no RS designation as of yet from Chevrolet for the Sonic, there are the LS, LT, and LTZ. All available with the 1.8 litre or 1.4 litre turbo. realizing that the 1.4 turbo in the Cruze makes up to 42 mpg, i would imagine that a 400 lb lighter car may make even better. not to mention that having drivin the cruze with the 1.4t motor, i have to say the motor has no shortage of power. Hopefully you can pull your head out of your rectum and actually wait to drive a vehicle before you slam it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486742649639876970.post-77205159335692160552011-03-05T23:22:16.304-05:002011-03-05T23:22:16.304-05:00Good to know.
