Chevrolet Spark User Reviews

 

Exterior I bought a spark Lt velvet red after a thorough look at a few other hatchbacks. The outside looks are good and you will love to drive a car that has a smile to greet you with.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The beige interiors look cool and the shopping hooks in the front seats is an innovative idea.The interior is huge compared to most other hatchbacks.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The engine is a thriller with a great pickup.the fuel economy might not be excellent but it is quite good.

 

Ride Quality & Handling The noise reduction is good.The power steering helps you to make a turning even in narrow roads.

 

Final Words I recommend the spark to the people who are planning to buy hatchbacks.It is certainly better than the alto except the mileage part of it.But the other problem is that the dealer takes a long time to give the papers once they sell their product.I had the above problem and that is why I mention it. 

 

Areas of improvement Lesser delivery period, fuel economy.

 

Stylish, lots of space,excellent interior finishPoor dealership in nagercoil

 

Exterior Great looks & Easy driving through power steering.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors poorly designed, space not at all managed well & comfort is a compromise.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Fuel economy extremely bad. Infact over hyped. Every time to switch from 2nd to 3rd Gear it does gets jammed.

Ride Quality & Handling Not so good. Test drive was impressive as I switched over from brands like Ford & Maruti. Chevy Spark needs a hell lot of improvement if they have to get a good market share. Only marketing can't help.

Final Words Not a smart buy.

Areas of improvement Other than the exteriors. Everything else need improvement big time. Have spent quite some money & infact did not have options in buying LPG. Chev spark has a poor ground clearance which means it bumps on to every speed breaker. Fuel economy within city limits poor as compared with Zen - CNG or Alto K series.

Good Looks, Easy NavigationPoor Mileage, Interiors not good, Less Spacious

fuel economy

Thanks to its intelligent packaging and 2,345-mm wheelbase, the five-seater offers a comparatively large amount of space and a feeling of roominess. The Spark comes with a generous assortment of standard convenience features and smart storage spaces. Among the additional elements found in the Special Edition are a 2-din entertainment system, sporty seat fabric and remote keyless entry.

Like the original Spark, the Special edition comes with the economical yet powerful S-Tec engine, which was developed exclusively for the Spark. The four-cylinder 1.0-litre petrol engine delivers peak power of 63 ps @ 5,400 rpm and peak torque of 90.3 Nm @ 4,200 rpm. Power and torque are maximised at lower speeds, making the Spark ideal for commuting in congested city traffic as well as on open highways. The peak power per engine displacement volume is the highest in the Spark’s segment. A reduced curb weight and more aerodynamic styling further improve the Spark’s low drag co-efficient of 0.342, giving it the best fuel efficiency of any vehicle in the market.

Also carried over from the original Spark to the Special edition is the focus on safety. Fifty-one percent of the total weight of the Spark’s body cell consists of high-strength steel, providing great rigidity and stability while lowering the weight by 10 kg. Precisely defined load paths with an energy-absorbing hexagonal profile protect passengers in the event of a head-on or rear-end collision.

Optimised links between the B-pillar and sills provide side impact protection. For enhanced protection, the B-pillar is made of three steel plates of different thicknesses. The plates are welded together so that in the event of a side impact, the B-pillar moves like a pendulum rather than being folded and protruding into the passenger compartment.

It may be recalled that the Chevrolet Spark has consecutively won the prestigious J.D. Power Initial Quality Study (IQS) Award for two years in a row, in 2007 and 2008 for its class-leading quality attributes and has also been rated best-in-class in terms of fuel economy by journalists across the country. The Spark has also won the special ‘Best Value Car for Award’ from BS Motoring magazine recently.

The Chevrolet Spark special edition - Muzic comes with a three-year standard warranty, which is an industry first in the mini-car segment. In addition, the consumer also can opt for a unique add-on service maintenance package, the ‘Chevrolet Promise – Cashless Ownership Offer,’ which frees the customer from maintenance-related costs for three years or 45,000 km (whichever comes first).

I bought Spark in 2007 when Chevrolet offered 50,000 discount on the car.I got the higher end model  with music system and seat covers just in Rs 3.83 lakh.I just love the car because of its beauty and performance.The gear system is so smooth.The interiors are managed properly.The colors available are very beautiful and soothing to the eyes.

I bought the car when I was in Jamshedpur.Whenever I used to go to office a lot of people on the road use to look at the car.Infact,a lot of people use to come and ask about the details of the car (about the peroformance).This all simply tells how attractive the car is....

 

 

EconomicalNA

 

I bought this car on 2nd aug 2010  in coimbatore at annamalais agencies .i have completed arround 300 kms now and i am very much satisfied with the overall performance of spark.i have attained max speed upto 95 kph for few minutes in that speed the stability of the car is amazing braking is also very effective. excellent car from GM INDIA. Now the scheme is also very nice. For 3yrs or 45000 kms all service and spares are free.This is main reason i bought this car.

 

Exterior Attractive exterior.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Super interior with all important features.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Excellent S-TEC engine,very silent too.pickup in 3rd gear is simply superb for safe overtaking. Gear transmission is very nice but rev gear shifting is little bit difficult for new users.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Comfortable ride quality in city and handling is also very easy.

 

Areas of improvement Colour options are very less compared to any other cars in the market and i feel little bit Difficult to shifting revrse gear.

 

good exterior,interior and performancereverse gear shift,

Exterior

 Its a very good car by its exterior, looks great.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 intereiors are very good too, a nice dash board digital tachometer and lots of space for other stuffs too.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 well, i have driven my spark on highway from delhi to haldwani with a speed of 80 to 100 kmph, i never felt any vibration i got 18 kmpl mileage, no problem with gearbox too, smooth gear shifting no tension car on highway.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Another area where i want to say is excellent, never feel bored when i handle this car.

Final Words

Stop searches for car, just go and grab the spark. if u miss the chance you will definately miss a world class car, which rarely found in indian markert, there is no match in this segment.

Areas of improvement  

 I don't think that there is an area of improvement.

 

Everything is goodnothing to say on cons coz there is no cons
