Chevrolet Sonic Z-Spec Series - 2011 SEMA Show Preview

Chevrolet Sonic Z-Spec Series - 2011 SEMA Show Preview - As part of its program to promote its line of dealer-installed performance accessories, Chevrolet is offering up three versions of its 2012 Sonic subcompact with special packages at SEMA.

The 2012 Chevrolet Sonic Z-Spec #1 is a 5-door version of the car dressed up with ground effects, a spoiler, unique grille and a graphics package. Painted torch red, the Sonic Z-Spec #1 is fitted with 18-in. wheels, a cobalt red interior with perforated black suede seat inserts, a Z-Spec sport pedal kit, sport shift knob and flat-bottom steering wheel. Functional bits include beefed-up brakes with 4-piston calipers, a new high-flow exhaust system and performance suspension parts.

Moving up the performance scale, the 2012 Chevrolet Sonic Z-Spec #2 is the visual opposite of the Spec #1 with a flat white exterior offset by torch red accents. This 5-door hatch sports a more aggressive ground effects package, rear spoiler, custom grille and graphics. In addition to the sport shift knob and flat-bottom steering wheel, the Z-Spec #2 has full custom racing seats with the Z-Spec logo. It also retains the stock 1.4-liter turbo four mated to a 6-speed manual that benefits from a custom high-flow exhaust. Brakes are uprated to include 4-piston calipers and the suspension features sport-tuned components.

The 2012 Sonic Z-Spec 4D Concept is based on the more formal 3-box sedan layout and is done up like a European touring car. Painted a metallic gray, the 4D Concept is equipped with Z-Spec ground effects, a rear spoiler, revised grille, Chevrolet graphics and 18-in. wheels. The interior is also retrimmed with sport pedals, aluminum sport shift knob and a flat-bottom steering wheel. Like the hatches, the 1.4-liter four with 6-speed manual has a larger exhaust and the brakes features 4-piston calipers to go with the tauter sport suspension.

While it’s not formally part of the Z-Spec series, the Sonic Dusk concept uses some these components like the shift knob, sport pedals and steering wheel. Much more subtle in execution, the Dusk is painted Berline blue with a mild ground effects package, unique grille and 18-in. concept wheels pained dark silver. The lights also feature a blue tint, adding to the car’s sophisticated look. The interior is trimmed in Mojave leather with custom seat inserts and features a high-output audio system. Other upgrades include 4-piston brake calipers and a stiffer sport suspension.
