No matter what you thought of the Sonic, it was a decent affordable car for somebody who just wanted basic transportation.
Not all buyers want $40K SUVs or $50K pickup trucks. Sonic probably wasn't any worse than the Toyota Yaris which was an ancient design dating back to the Tercel, and it was undoubtedly better than either the Nissan Versa or Mitsubishi Mirage, both of which cost more than the Sonic did.
GM killed the $15K Sonic and replaced it with the $20K Trax--which is based on the Sonic.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
