Used 2022 Chevy Spark Hatchback Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
The 2022 Chevrolet Spark is a subcompact hatchback that's sold in four trim levels: LS, 1LT, Activ and 2LT. Every Spark is powered by a 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine making 98 horsepower and 94 lb-ft of torque. You can choose between a five-speed manual transmission or a continuously variable transmission (CVT) on all four trims.
Which Spark trim does Edmunds recommend?
If you're considering a subcompact vehicle, chances are that the out-the-door price is a major consideration. That said, the base LS is a little too bare-bones for us to recommend. The next-level 1LT is a great option if you want to keep costs low but still have desirable features. The power accessories, remote locking/unlocking and cruise control features will pay dividends over the years.
