2020 Chevrolet Spark 1LT 4dr Hatchback (1.4L 4cyl 5M)

The Spark is exactly what it is intended to be--an urban run-about! I find it to be attractive in looks and efficient to drive. The visibility is great and I have no complaints. It is a small car and that is what I expected.

I was T-boned on the driver's side and the emergency crew had to take door off to get to me. However, I only sustained minor injuries due to the side airbags! For a small car, it has a lot to offer!

Outstanding Economical Car

This is an outstanding vehicle. I also own a Lincoln Town Car and a 4 door Ford F350 Dually Superduty diesel. This car is fun to drive, is very economical, runs great, not a single problem, the AC cools off the car immediately even in 115 degree Phoenix summers. I find myself experiencing withdrawal if I go too many days without driving this car. Yes it is small, but it can carry four adults, has four doors, and is very reliable and inexpensive to purchase and maintain. If you need a bigger car, don’t complain about the size of this car. If you are willing to spend more money, you can get a bigger car, but you will not find a better value than this car. I can’t wait to take it out again today. I love the car.

Just purchased a brand new 2020 LS with the CVT. I cannot express how much of an improvement this is over the previous. I had a 2014 LS with the manual. The only feature I’ll miss is the power windows. Though the power driver door lock is handy. I can reach all the locks so I don’t mind if they are manual, but it’s nice having one that is power, and unlocks when you turn the car off. I have never minded manual windows though and getting Bluetooth, Apple/Android support, and a backup camera is pretty sweet for a “cheap” car. This 1.4 CVT our accelerates my old 1.2L 5spd, rund lower revs at highway speed, and the engine is considerably quieter! Handling is similar, but less body roll, softer ride, and much tighter steering. The interior is multiple orders of magnitude improved over my 2014. That’s all I can say. I mean hey, it’s still a tiny car. :) We will see how fuel economy compares to my 2014 as it routinely got 41 in summer and 38 winter with mixed driving. If you’re looking for a small and affordable runabout, Chevrolet has produced something simply amazing. Emphasis on the simple part, but definitely amazing. Plus it’s historical reliability history is much improved over the prior generation. I know mine had some weird electronic gremlins, those appear to be fixed on this one, but time will tell. So far I’m genuinely impressed.

I purchased a new 2020 Chevy Spark With the 1LT package and manual transmission in early August as a third vehicle. I can honestly say this little car just blows me away. I’ve had more compliments from people on this car than I have for my other two much more expensive vehicles. It’s a blast to drive. With the manual transmission first gear is a bit sluggish but not horrible and then as you get up to speed through the gears to fifth it just wants to go. I’ve driven it over 3K miles so far including a trip from Washington, DC to Rhode Island and back and loved the drive. I averaged 44 mpg, it’s smooth, easy to drive and change lanes. It is also nice to only fill a ten gallon tank and get outstanding mileage. The only negative I would say is the back seat is a bit cramped but in my case no one ever rides back there. It’s comfortable inside, I’m 5’11, 210 and there is plenty of room. Great vision from the car, it came with a lot of nice features including the 4G . I bought white fr higher visibility and safety. The price I paid for it, 12K was amazing. It is a fabulous commuting car and fun to drive like a go-cart. I don’t have one regret and it’s been great.

Long time Chevy dude -- going all the way back my first brand new car -- 1982 Camaro. I've owned BMW and Acura in the past -- so some experience with Euro and Honda etc. Car before this was a 2010 Cobalt XFE 5sp manual -- ROCK solid performer traded with 51k miles and still had all orig brakes etc. All I ever did was change oil and air filter + tires. Car was very good to me and still had 100k+ miles to go -- but I wanted to capitalize on my GM Card which was floating around $3500.00 credit towards a new car the past few years -- so decided to jump. No doubt I got an incredible deal on Sparky paying $130/mo 60months with car in trade + a whopping $250.00 cash down! Beyond that -- when I test drove the car I was very impressed ALL AROUND and really love the driving experience. My history with Chevy is that they are as bullet proof as any brand on the street -- and outlast the vast majority of others that inexplicably seem to have hyped reps for basic reliability. Anyway -- love the little car and look forward to years and years of driving... Probably my last car. Thanks Chevy!!!

Does stop-go, and high speeds well. Accelerates as fast as everyone else in highway. 85 in crosswinds well. Great price at Auto Chevy Waco.

Bought the Spark for my wife. She's always had Chevys and we needed something with a small payment. We got the Activ, and it's just as cute as a bug. Drives really nice too, and comes with great tech features. Also has the heated seats, a must for my wife. We have her pom's two car seats in the back and they love it, because the visibility is excellent. A really good run around town car, easy to drive, and park. We need to install a remote starter, but we already added seat covers, mud mats, and a few blings here and there. She loves it! Update. 1 year later, she loves her little car, we put snow tires on it, and it scoots around in the snow and ice with no problem. And now with gas prices as high as they are, it was a stroke of genius to buy this car. Very happy with it! Update 8/20/22: Wife is still happy with her Spark. Barely 3,000 miles on it. 42 mpg with snow tires. Cute as a bug! Update 2/28/23 5,000 miles on the little bugger and it's just the handiest little tool to have in the garage, Just great for urban shopping. Love it!

It's more of a city car, but drives good on highway. I purchased today and so far so good.

I have had this car since February2020,in July 2020 the air conditioner is not working properly, each time I take it back in,I am told it's working but I don't even get home,the air conditioner is not working. I am disappointed. The back seat is so small .
