Sonic knows how hard and busy a life of young adults nowadays and student and postgrads are in demand of such a product that will make their life easier, fun and positive. As it was mentioned, potential consumers will know and value only hedonic part of the car, as Sonic is not the best match among its competitors on utilitarian base car like Nissan Micra, Ford Focus, Kia Rio. These cars have greater fuel efficiency, prices, etc, however, Chevrolet Sonic is a meaning of a fun driver. In the commercial itself, the letter “o” in the name Sonic will be modified to a spinning car wheal “o”, a drive “o”. The focus of attention will be an energizer car, that should not have the best speed or mileage performance among the competitors but will be unique because of its interaction and helpfulness.
Before Ford created a cheaper, more affordable car for the American people, Charles Edgar Duryea had created a car only affordable for the wealthy, not many Americans were as fortunate to be able to buy a car and it was considered a luxury to have.

Over the past couple of weeks, there has been a dramatic fall in the once thought of, cooperate social responsible car company Volkswagen. After manipulating the pollution levels of their cars, this scandal has resulted in the German car company is facing a lot of backlash from consumers which is significantly impacting their value.
