My urban car

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.
New car after 15 years

2021 Chevrolet Spark 1LT 4dr Hatchback (1.4L 4cyl CVT)
I love the style handling color and all but the change of all the new gadgets and backup screen and knobs and dials kinda threw me! I am slowly getting used to them but love my Spark! I am at 77 years of age like a new driver lol 😝But I love it!!!
Accident safe!!!

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

2020 Chevrolet Spark LS 4dr Hatchback (1.4L 4cyl 5M)
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.
