What's the deal with the interior of a 2012 Chevy Sonic?

Ownership Experience

I agree. It needs a refresh, but overall it gets the job done for basic needs.

22

I’d love to explore software options. Are there any updates available that bring new features?

23

Definitely check with your dealer. Sometimes they have upgrade packages that include new software!

24

Honestly, the overall value of the Sonic’s interior tech is great for the price. I’m happy with mine!

25

Has anyone found effective ways to keep the upholstery clean? I have light-colored seats and they show stains easily.

26

I use a mix of vinegar and water for spot cleaning my seats. Works like a charm without harsh chemicals!

I definitely need to try that vinegar solution! My Sonic is looking a bit tired on the inside. Any recommendations for new floor mats?

I got some all-weather floor mats from WeatherTech. They fit perfectly and are super easy to clean!

I second that! The WeatherTech mats are a great investment to protect your interior.

What about dash protectants? My dashboard has started to fade from the sun. Any tips?

31

For the dashboard, I recommend using a UV protectant spray. It helps maintain the color and protects it from cracks.

Great idea! I’ve been thinking of upgrading my stereo too. Anyone have aftermarket suggestions?

Just installed a Pioneer unit in mine. The sound quality is fantastic, and it looks clean with the Sonic’s interior.

Nice! Do you have any tips for installation? I’m a little nervous about tackling that myself.

Make sure you have the right tools and don’t rush it. It took me a couple of hours, but now it’s perfect!

I love the Sonic’s interior, but I feel like it lacks some personality. Any fun decor ideas?
