Expert Reply:
The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2015 Chevy Sonic LT sedan is the Curt hitch # C11240. The hitch has an easy bolt on installation. I have included a link to a video showing a typical installation and a link to the installation instructions for you. The hitches for the Sonic are Class I hitches and all have a 1-1/4 inch receiver so you will be limited to carry two bikes.
The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack part # S64670. This rack has lots of positive reviews from our customers. Check out the review video I attached for more information.
Curt requires you to use a stabilizer strap # 18050 when carrying bikes with this hitch as an extra safety measure.
