21 Chev Spark is a nice, solid car for the money. The technology you want comes standard. It’s a great A to B type car.

2021 Chevrolet Spark 1LT 4dr Hatchback (1.4L 4cyl 5M)

I found the Chevy Spark so practical we bought 2 of them. If you are looking for a race car buy a Dodge Challenger. If you are looking for 3 roll seating and storage buy a suburban. This car does what it was designed for. And for people to be negative about the Spark you need to buy what fits your needs. I just think this little car is as nice as a pocket on a shirt.

awesome little car

2021 Chevrolet Spark LS 4dr Hatchback (1.4L 4cyl CVT)

I'm 6.2 and I can drive comfortably with a car seat in the back front facing though not sure about back facing. I figured I would throw that out their for starters. Grate fuel mileage. You can find a parking spot anywhere lol. If you are good with basic mechanics such as brakes and what not and look online for parts they are dirt cheap. I haven't had to work on anything yet because …
