Chevrolet Spark User Reviews

 

Exterior Very stylish car from outside, the rear view mirror should be of body colour, rear side fog lamp should have been provided for great looks.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Comfertable space inside, good for tall person, very good music system installed, light should be provided inside bonet area and dicky area.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance good & smooth, Fuel economy very poor, gear engagement smooth except reverse gear which is hard to engage but once you are familier with the vehicle it will be OK.

Ride Quality & Handling Can drive easily in traffic, Handling very good, can be parked at small and congested places without much difficulty.

Final Words Overall good car except fuel economy, rest all is good if the company increases the kpl,one more drawback is ground clearence, even while crossing small bumper the under carriage kisses the road, good pickup in its segment, smooth drive, engine smooth noiseless.

Areas of improvement KPL should be improved, whatever promised i.e. 18 KMPL the spark should give 😢.

Car style very good, when you drive on road, it looks 'jara hatke gadi' interior fully loadedKPL very less company tells 18 but never achieved, ground clearance less

Exterior Thats the prime attraction; metalic red is too good. Purchased it without planning/all of sudden and never felt sorry about decession. Excellen looks, very refreshing. Looks as if GM has got its style quotient right this time.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Easy for 4-5; leg room is good. Even continuous drive 200 kms. never effected me though am not a regular/hardcore driving person. Interior space is adequate if not huge. Lil less of luggage space. Newly done dashboard is very attractive and gives a real premium feel.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Till date not face ant problem after using on highway/city for 40,000 km. Engine performance is great though have just driven few thousand kilometers.

Ride Quality & Handling Very confortable for long journey/city. often driving ot for 400 kms and never felt it. Ride quality and handling is very refined. The power steering is silky smooth and makes it a treat to ride even in the narrowest of lanes.

Final Words Best valu for money Itane kam daam main itana sub kuchh! Brought other Spark - LS veriant. Earlier I was only driving it but now 3 more people in family started driving. Go for it even if it means waiting for a couple of months. Though in my case my car got delivered in a weeks time, thanks to the excellent salesmanship of Mr Manjit Das of Pallavi Motors, Guwahati. Very efficient handling of customers.

Areas of improvement Milege; accessories, A music system and rear defogger atleast.

Better car in small segment. Good Style, good performance, a/c is coollce,Nil as on date; using it for last 4+ years

Exterior Car is good looking. Driving & Parking in the city is very easy because of compact size.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) All facilities like AC, Power Steering, Front Power Windows etc has been provided in the LS Model. There is space for every thing in the Car. AC is effective & cools the car very fast. Some power drop is experience at lower speeds when AC is on. Driving comfort is marvelous. No need to change the gears frequently. Car easily pulls from as low as 15 kmph in the third gear without any jerk or noise. Four adults are comfortably accomodated. Fifth may be a tight one

Engine Perfodrmance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is super silent & powerful. Never felt any lack of power on the Highway. I have run 12600 KMs till date in two years & regularly getting 16-17 KMPL in the city & 18-19 KMPL on highway. AC is used sparingly. Avarage computed on Tank full to Tank full basis. ( I only fill petrol only at regular 2 pumps in our city and I must add that my driving is sensible & on highway I rearly exceed 80 KMPH.) Gear changing is smooth .  Engaging reverse gear is sometimes tricky.

In last two years, engine has always started at the first crank of the key in all seasons. Even after keeping car idle for 17 days at a strech, engine has started at first crank.

Ride Quality & Handling Very easy to drive & park. Handling is great. The front quarter view is obstructed because of design of the car. One has to be careful while turning right.

Final Words Chevrolet has offered me a three years cash less promise offer. So in two years and after 12600 KMs , I have not spent a single rupee on the car maintence. Recently, 4th servicing was carried out where distribution coil was found short & was replaced free of cost . ( Actual Price Rs. 4300/-) The Chevrolet dealer at Kolhapur M/S Unique Automobiles has always provided excellent service in all the four services carried out at their workshop.

Areas of improvement Drivers leg space espacially for left leg. Front right quarter view is obstructed by a pillar.

Driving Comfort, Smooth Engine & Suspension, Good Milege, Best InteriorsIngress & Egress for driver.

Exterior What I Liked about the exterior is its front and back view but its side side doesn't look appealing to me.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Best in class for the driver and co-driver but backspace good for average bulit three persons not fat ones.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very Responsive,and super silent when its new sometimes u feel u haven't started the engine, to be precise it gives me exactly 25 Km for Rs 100 it is about 17-18 kmp-gearbox is good only third and reverse gear are bit hard otherwise its ok.

Ride Quality & Handling I can say it gives u the feel of joy and comfort the in its class, I can say no other car can giive u so much comfort, so ffar as handling is concered its very smooth adn very easily tuns on sharp tuns when in high speed.

Final Words Well fiends I have now been using this car for two years-spark LT (o)model I bough it exactly on 23rd december 2010 from KC-motors Srinagar for Rs 3.90 lakh including central locking, one year insurance and three year  free maintanance except tyree and battery-its actual cost was about 4.27 lakh I have done 16k and there is no regrets so far.

Areas of improvement Boot space, rear space-height and mileage-reverse gear bit hard.

Ride comfort-confident feel on sharp turns,and chevrolet promise for three yearsReverse ger shift bit hard,Mileage Not good not bad in between,Engine Noise Increase as the car get

Exterior Not as cute as a Smart for two or Fiat 500, but it grows on you.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Lots of features, but one thing it could use is an auto dimming rearview mirror.  Interior is large, spacious and comfortable for such a small car.  Great back seat room too, and lots of cargo space.  The Smart and Fiat don't come close.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I average around 35mpg in combined driving situations, and have gotten as much or better than 50 mpg in highway driving situations where there was no heavy traffic, such as late night runs I did just for fun to see what I could get as a pure highway average. I love the 5 speed manual. It shifts like butter, and the engine is strong, pulling real good, but not ruckorous or noisey. This car looks like it could go 100s of thousands of miles with the proper use and maintainance.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride is good.  Not punishing or harsh.  Good over most road surfaces, and surprisingly supple when it would not be expected to be so.  Look out for big pot holes, but that goes without saying with any car.  Handling is good:  It is just a plain zippy and fun car to drive.

Final Words Here in the USA this is about the least expensive car you can get.  Even the Smart for two is more expensive and much less car.  Even though it is the least expensive car, I would say that for most people they just don't need more car, that is, ofcourse, if they are truly being rational.  Yet, even if you are the rational type and reason that you really do not need more car, except for some truly exotics which are very fast, you are hardly giving up much with this car:  It is comfortable enough; roomy enough, and most of all, it is a highly drivable, and fun to drive car.

Areas of improvement Wish it had an auto dimming rearview mirror. Maybe a 6 speed manual might be more desirable than a 5 speed so that it might get even better highway mileage. Yet it gets pretty good mileage on the highway anyway, even at 65 to 70 mph. Oh, yeah, one more adjustment parameter on the driver's seat would be nice, a lumbar support adjustment. But, hey, I am almost 60 years old, so it might not be the wish of everyone.

mpg, 5sp-trans, room, ride, features, driver's seat, moreLack of auto dimming rv-mirror, all things considered, not much else.

Exterior Good.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) No Fatigue while driving long distance. Very Good AC. Door opened indicator, mobile charger, bottle space in the doors.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Fuel economy in LPG very less only 12KPL even in Highway. Gear Shifting difficult while switched to 5th gear. Otherwise very soft gear movement.Engine is very strong very smooth, No sound inside the cabin.

Ride Quality & Handling Good Suspension. But very low, hence under carriage touching the Bumps at many occations. Horn Push is very hard,fatigue in fingure/palm at long driving. Should be more soft & should be all over the stearing like maruti/Tata Cars.

Boot space is extermely low. Even maruti 800 has more boot space. Dashboard should be low in height, reflects to driver if the sun is above front windscreen, results in clear vision problem.

Final Words Smooth Suspension, soundless engine, Very less driving fatigue.

Areas of improvement Ground clearence should be more, Horn Push should be redesigned. Dashboard height should be reduced. Boot space should be increased at list as par Alto/Indica.

Smooth Suspension, soundless engine, Very less driving fatigueGround clearenc less, Horn push incoveniant & very hard. Boot space very small. Dashboard height

Final Words I am very unhappy with the Chivrolet service team , have tried two service point and both have turnned out like trying to encash the customer .whenever have visited for routine service lots of defects has been highlighted and advised to replace and huge bill raised .

Areas of improvement Team to understand - if the parts quality are so bad that going out of order in 3 years time , I think they should improve the material quality .have spent in last 4 month ( two visits ) Rs 21000.00 , have used in past other cars of other brand and there was no such thing at least upto 1 lakh kms or 5years .this car has  run 68oookms and is 4years old still need reapirs . it is driven by me alone in delhi NCR but rear shocker gone in the 2nd year , front shocker gone this year , timing belt replaced , there is coolant leakage from the engine port ( metal part ) - I have been advsied to get it replaced and cost is Rs 6000.00 where by there is no reason of such thing getting out of order if my car serivice is regular and from the authorised service point.

This is the First and will be the last Chivrolet Car for me , will never buy or recomand this to any one. Pls Help me getting the right point to be contacted .😢

Car is small but drive feel rich , safe and steady on roadnothing

Exterior Exterior is good may improve more. Height from road is not sufficent.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior is above average which attracts people but it requires frequent cleaning and proper maintenance, space is average leg space is less as compaired to maruti and hundai and comfort is fair enough.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engin performance is very poor. after 1 and half year it starts trouble and poor responce from service center it is very defficult to rectify problems as there is less servis station.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is average. on road at high speed it makes noise and having less breaking affeciency.

Final Words We should not prefer this car as we are not having value of money also resale price is also not good.

Areas of improvement   Engin quality and service after sale needs to improve, service centers with qualified and trained enginers needs to increase. coustemer feed back needs to evealuate properly.

interior is above average.Engin performance is not good.

Exterior Its ok.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Back seats are not comfortable at all, three people can not seat confertably at back.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Poor Engine Performance. frequently break downs.

Ride Quality & Handling Not Very Good. I have purchased brand new car 8 months back and till now I have to call break down service 4 to 5 times in middle of the road and send to service Center at Gallops Motors Ahmedabad SG Highway.

Final Words We have bought Spark 8 months back with the gas kit from Gallops Motors Ahmedabad and from starting till now it causing problems, problems and problems. The service centre people (Gallops Motors) are also not very irresponsible.  While purchasing car they promises so much but In reality when my car break down at middle of the road and I called break down services in After noon at 3 PM but they did not turned up and I have to leave my car in unknown area and after so much calls, follow-ups and request they came to pick up my car at 12 PM mid night.  They promises to give valuable services but they are very much failed to provide it. It happens 4 to 5 times I have called break down services and there is never responsible person I found to listen it and I think they don’t care how critical situation we were in. I think their focus is just on sales.

My car is under warranty still we have to pay for break down and service charges, they makes false excuses and there is only a standard answer they have  “refer Gallops’ policy written in registration book”.

It is truly zero value for money. I think they want to make money from after purchase services. So I truly recommend No to this car. It’s my biggest mistake I have made ever.

Areas of improvement So much to improve at Gallops Motors Ahmedabd.

NothingBad Service at Gallops Motors Ahmedabd
