Megan P

Compact but comfortable!!

I was on the fence about this car when I first purchased it, as I have 2 kids but the longer I drive it the more I have gotten attached to it. It is small but surprisingly comfortable, for my family of 4. This little cutie gets amazing gas mileage, and I have never spent more than $19 to fill her up. The color is probably my favorite thing about it though, bright metallic orange!

Why I love my car. It is small but large in love.

I love my car, mainly because of its great mpg. I get about 50 mpg. It is a 4 door. This makes it easy for me to load things in the back seat. My 4 dogs fit well in the back seat. As well as my granddaughter. It does not have great power, but it has enough to get to where I want to go.

Comfortable and cute compact car.

I love my Chevy spark. It is a compact car with a hatchback, but it still has 4 doors, which makes driving guests or loading things into the back seat really easy. I average about 31 mpg, so it is fuel efficient. I like the options Chevy has with it is app - you can remotely lock or unlock the door, see how many miles you can drive before you need to fill up and check your tire pressure all on your phone. The spark is an all around comfortable compact car that drives great and has all of the features I like.

Powerful fun little monster.

The spark is fun to drive around. The heater is really fast heating the car up in cold weather. The ac is fantastic cools car on the first setting. Gas mileage is great only fill up once a week average of 340 miles per tank full. Power this little car has power. Brakes work just tapping on them. I had to stop fast and hit the brakes and this car stopped right then I was so impressed with how fast. It's really fun to drive. The only setback is not a lot of trunk space.

Sparks are good but small cars.

I love how it handles and accelerates and gas mileage is amazing. It is small and not that roomy. The trunk space could be better for the money it is a good car and will get you where you need to go. I have had mine for over a year and no problems with it. The ac is amazing in the car cools down very quickly.

Megan M

The car is small but mighty.

The car is small, however it is perfect for me. It gets great gas mileage. The entertainment screen is easy to use and has a lot of features. The backup camera is crystal clear and a great benefit. The car has an adequate amount of cup holders. The car rides very smooth.

Nancy P

Gas mileage is so amazing and very roomy for compact car.

Love the look of it, kind of sporty. It has four doors plus a hatchback. Plenty of legroom and headroom. Storage in back is adequate. It has awesome gas mileage at about 44 miles per gallon. It has a nine gallon gas tank which makes it fairly cheap to fill up, even on empty. You can drive over three hundred and sixty miles on a nine gallon tank of gas. The audio system is extremely good. The app system and other available systems are great. Has the ability of Wi-Fi and everything connects seamlessly. The ride is very good and smooth. This car handles very well in any condition. Speed control and audio and phone systems are available from the steering wheel which helps keep your eyes on the road. Back seats lay flat for more storage. The 360 degree vision when driving makes it safe to navigate. Adjustable seats and front and back adjustable headrests are invaluable. Has sensors for tire pressure and oil change suggestions. The doors are wide enough to make entering and exiting it very easy. Plenty of legroom in rear seats for adults. Cup holders for front and back also.

Thelma Binklet

Love my Spark

I have had my Spark for 2 months and it is the first brand new car I have owned. The car is fun to drive and even sporty. The room is unbelievable and the handling is awesome. Takes curves fantastic and really smooth ride. Would recommend this car to anyone who wants quality and fun in one vehicle. Long live the Chevy Spark!!!!!

Defective rims

Bought new Chevrolet Spark, now told it also came with 2 bent rims and they REFUSE to replace them, warranty is worthless

Jay H

A little bit about the spark.

If you are on the interstate for a while the vehicle begins to give off a burning scent. This car also gets knocked around like nothing when it is windy outside. The spark is very compact and great on mileage. It does only have a 10 gallon tank so you do have to fill up quite a bit on longer road trips. It has nice compaction whenever putting down seats and the headrests come off really smooth.

Heather K

Sparks are small cars but they actually are the perfect size!

My spark is a good car. It has great gas mileage and is not too low to the ground so you do not have to bend over so far. The windows are manual so they do not get stuck the way they do on automatic ones. The only problems are really just superficial. There is no CD or tape player, you have to manually lock and unlock the doors, no heated seats, no armrest to pull down for a passenger and the sun visors are not long enough to do any good when pushed to the side. Other than that, it is a great car.

Celia F

Small vehicle with good fuel economy.

Has good sound system with USB ports, space is a little on the right side in the front. In the back, there is enough room for a wheelchair and grocery bags. Ride is average. Fuel economy is excellent. Seats are tougher to adjust for comfort preferences.

Kaitlyn H

Good for just a couple or a single college student.

It is too small for my family. The windows aint automatic windows you have to roll them down. There is no room in trunk. It drives slow. It has lots of problems. My daughters car seat does not fit in the car. That is a huge problem. Because she comes everywhere I go.

Brittany K

Spark is a spark of cars!

I previously had a spark before this one and I am still in love with the car. Decent priced, good on gas, small but spacious. Never had any issues. When tire pressure is low you can definitely tell though, as in any car but the performance is totally different.

Kerry D

Small size car and compartments.

I like how compact the car itself is. It can fit into any parking space and it is really easy to change lanes on the parkway. I would prefer some more storage compartments, like a center console compartment and a drop down glasses compartment, the. Glove box could be larger as well.

Briahna M

It is a red 2019 Chevy spark ls hatchback.

My car has had a lot of problems with the driver side door. The handle keeps breaking. The car does not have a remote lock or a push to lock button. I have to go to every door and lock them manually. I also have to be on the passenger side to fix the passenger side view mirror which can be a hassle and dangerous.

Pros from Owners

Sandy T.

The original cost is low. It gets great MPG. It is fun to drive. It has 4 doors and a rear hatch. Very roomy inside. Love the size of the trunk. The color is toasted marshmallow. I love this color. I would recommend this car to anyone looking for a vehicle that gets great MPG.

Chasity T.

Fuel economy, small and comfortable for me and my dog, comes with spare tire and donut, lots of incredible safety features, nice interior and seats, drives smooth, simple to fix and work on, easy maintenance.

Crystal G.

The vehicle is compact yet the seats fold down allowing for a storage. The design is sleek and the colors available are more vibrant and diverse than most vehicles. It is not the most fuel efficient car but it is the highway fuel efficiency is pretty good, about 30 mpgs. It is a good road trip vehicle.

Katlyn W.

I love that I have a backup camera to use if I ever feel like my reviews are not sufficient enough. I love the compact feel and look, however there is actually plenty of space on the inside. I am able to fit a rear facing car seat for my almost 9 month old and a booster seat for my 5 year old with no problem. There is plenty of legroom still for everyone. This would be a great first car for someone or if you do not have a lot of street parking or something along those lines.

Cons from Owners

Sandy T.

I guess that it does not have auto windows. We purchased the lowest accessory model. Just to keep our monthly payment down. If this was not a factor. I would have liked to have electric windows and door locks as well as cruise control.

Chasity T.

It does not have as much space as I'd like. Even though it is small and a perfect fit for me and I am small, I still have a hard time getting in and out. There seems to be a few blind spots when driving on certain roads, exits, Ramps, and turns.

Crystal G.

The only con I can think of is that there is not an AWD drive model. The car does well in the snow but at times I would feel safer with AWD. Also, the car only seats 4 including the driver. It is possible that this car does not have enough seats to qualify as a family vehicle.

Katlyn W.

I do not have a lot of cons. The only thing that I do not like about my car is that on the inside in the backseat, there's not a light on the roof. At night when I am going somewhere with my kids, it is hard to see buckling them up. Other than that, no cons.

Is The 2019 Chevrolet Spark A Good Value?

We paid around 17 thousand for our car. I feel it is of good value. For the warranties we got. We are paying for seven years.

Debbie C.

It's going to run me 19k but that's because my interest rate is 11 percent and added warranties were added to my car to the dealership could make money off me but cost not bad I pay extra every month... Read More

Reshada V.

16000 it is a very great value its reasonable in price and very good car out in the market and its great.

Crystal R.

~$13,000 it was perfect price. The best value on the road. The dealerships are not that great though for service.

CHRIS L.

I am not sure how much it cost. Though I know it's a very affordable can for a low income family. Plus the gas is good so it uses less.

Gary S.

14,000.00. They gave me a good deal at the dealership. I think it's a great value for the car. There are many other vehicles that are of lesser quality, for more money.

Justin D.

Chevrolet Spark price was $10000 which is a great value considering most cars are priced way over $10000.
