STAY AWAY!!!! Leave at dealer!!!

Stay away from this care!!! It has safety issues!!!! The vacuum pump failed and almost went through an intersection because my brakes would not work properly. Pieces broke off in engine. I currently need a camshaft and no Chevy dealer in the US has it because it is severely back ordered if that tells you anything. This car needs to be recalled and they need to keep these cars in Korea where they are made!!! I’m still making a payment on a car to sit in my driveway until I can find the part!!!

Becomes even more likable the longer you own it.

Exceptionally well thought out, great on the freeway, even better around town. I think it's Chevrolet's best kept secret. If every buyer knew what a value it was, I think Chevrolet would sell a lot of more of these cars. It's a real car, doesn't feel, sound, or ride like a lower priced toy car; it's relatively quiet, rides well, and is more fun to drive than the Fiat 500 I rented for a few days. The 2LT has lots of great safety options. This car is a real value.

THE BEST ON GAS MILEAGE EVER!

Now we're a 2 Spark family!! Love the sunroof & new design from our 2013 Spark. You can't beat the price, value, and gas mileage. Gotta love our Chevys;)

Problem after Problem

Mine was constantly in the shop for one thing or another and they never could fix it. Poor accelerator / transmission response left me frequently screaming at the vehicle in a panic because it would leave me a sitting duck in dangerous traffic situations. Though the paint job was attractive, the clear coat on the exterior paint seemed about non-existent, as a little bird guano ate all the way to the primer in a day. This vehicle was a very frustrating experience, and I highly recommend spending the extra few thousand and buying its slightly bigger but tremendously better sibling, the Sonic.

Best Economy Friendly Car

I loved this vehicle very much, especially as a city car...even does well on long road trips too, fit everything i needed to fit and goes a long way without refueling.
