Question:
What etrailer base kit will fit my 2017 Sonic Hatchback? I'm looking to flat tow this so I'll need the tow bar and wiring to. Thank you!

The etrailer base plate kit that fits your 2017 Chevy Sonic Hatchback is the part # e98963 and then the corresponding tow bar you'll need is the etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e34ZR which also comes with safety cables.
Then for wiring I highly recommend the Roadmaster Smart Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Wiring Kit # RM26FR which comes with the wiring, diodes, and umbilical for a complete wiring kit that uses the lights on your Sonic as opposed to magnetic lights that sit on top of your vehicle.
If you don't already have a braking system I recommend the Brake Buddy Select 3 # HM39524 which is a portable system that you place in front of your driver's seat and it uses an arm to depress your brake pedal.
You probably also need a high-low adapter to keep your tow bar level. The bracket height is 14" for this kit so you just need to measure the height of the hitch receiver on your motorhome and reference the attached article to choose the correct adapter.
Attached are some videos for you to check out.
