Reviews for Chevrolet Spark
Awesome commuter
I LOVE my little spark. I have the spark 2LT model which has a sunroof, fog lights, two tone (black & cream) leather seats, seat heaters and apple play. It’s so small and zippy and fits easily into parking spaces. Gas mileage is great and between working 2 jobs I only fill up 1x a week at most. It has a but of a sporty look and not so much a mom car look like some of the other ones I have seen. Regardless, 2LT or not, this car is super reliable and great all around, not to mention comfortable, my dog loves going for rides in it. It’s a small vehicle but perfect size at the same time. So happy with this car :)
Pros
- Fuel Economy:
- Ride and Handling: Super easy to drive and park
- Styling: Fully loaded options
love it but to small.
I loved my spark at first but then when I started driving it more on the interstate I notice that big trucks couldn’t really see me and would come over in my lane a lot. It really started to scare me. It had amazing gas mileage and lord knows I could park anywhere lol. I don’t understand why all models don’t have power windows and locks though. I ended up trading it in for a 2021 Chevy equinox and am so happy with my decision.
Pros
- Fuel Economy:
Cons
- Visibility:
- Power: no power locks and windows
Easy going commuter
Its small and efficient, with decent gas milage, however it doesnt have electronic locks ( at least on my model) and the MPG's fluctuate immensely and will drop if you idle for about thirty minutes. So I never truly know what my exact MPG is unless I record it manually. Its very easy to drive, however and is great for cities with constant need for parallel parking. Its size makes it easy to fit into almost any tight space. Do keep in mind that it doesnt have a lot of power, so if you are looking for a car with a revving giddy-up, this is not your car. Even trying to go up roads with inclines (which there are plenty in Portland where I live) its sluggish and you really have to push that gas pedal and that eats up your gas fast.
Pros
- Ride and Handling: Easy, turns on a dime, smooth, quiet ride
- Styling: Very sleek with detailed designs on interior
- Reliability: Its a efficient commuter
Cons
- Power: Not a lot of power, rough going uphill
- Fuel Economy: Fluctuates frequently
- Weather Versatility: If you live anywhere with lots of rain or snow, this is not the best choice
