Chevrolet's tiny Spark is a four-seat city car, which is equipped with a touchscreen infotainment system as standard equipment. Its dinky 84-hp, 1.2-liter four-cylinder and jerky continuously variable automatic transmission combined to provide slow acceleration and its 32 mpg overall is not impressive for this class. Show
A four-speed automatic available in 2012 was no better, though the standard manual transmission helps. The cabin is cramped and relentlessly noisy, the ride is stiff and jittery. On the other hand, the Spark is maneuverable, easy to park, and boasts a rear seat fit for two adults. The Spark's three trim lines have the same powertrains, but different equipment levels, with little need to add more options. The best choice is the 1LT, since it brings vitals such as basic power accessories and cruise control. The stick shift is a better choice than the automatic. Overall, though, we suggest you get a different car instead -- unless you are considering the Spark EV. The electric version is surprisingly fun, giving the Spark plenty of smooth and quiet power, but it was only offered in a handful of states. More SPARK

Will there be 2023 Chevy Spark?The cheapest new car in America will be no longer after August 2022, with no direct replacement planned as Chevy focuses on crossovers. The Chevrolet Spark will be discontinued later this year, with production lasting through August, a GM spokesperson confirmed.
Is Chevrolet Spark worth buying?The 2022 Chevrolet Spark isn't a very good car. Sure, it's the cheapest new car in America at just $13,600, but it also feels like it. The seats aren't very comfortable, there isn't much space in the back for passengers or cargo, and the engine labors noisily to haul the car up to highway speeds.
Why is Chevy discontinuing the Spark?The discontinuation of the Spark suggests customers don't want budget cars, yet Chevy sold 24,460 Sparks in 2021, which is more than most luxury models. Higher margins and the pivot from cars to crossovers might be the driving force behind Chevy's decision.
How many miles will a 2022 Chevy Spark last?Fuel Efficiency
For city driving, the 2022 Chevy Spark comes in at 29 miles-per-gallon with its manual transmission and 30 with the automatic. On the highway, you could get up to 37 miles-per-gallon. On a full tank of gas, the Chevy Spark can manage a range of up about 297 miles.
