  Spark EV - 2014 Chevrolet Spark EV
  By austina - July 11 - 11:53 pm

  Read the comparative C&D review of all electrics that rated Spark #1, then bought it 4 weeks ago, havent driven our other cars since, it is a blast, fast, great handling, amazing interior space given tiny outside (I am 6-3). 85 miles range at 65, tried fast freeway trip at 75 to 80, range drops to 65 or so. Why doesnt Chevrolet push this car, it is excellent value with fed rebate, a modern day VW bug.

  A good commuter car. - 2014 Chevrolet Spark EV
  By limee - May 11 - 7:44 am

  Have had the car since August. Over 2000 miles on it so far.Acceleration is brisk and satisfying. Quite comfortable over bumps despite its small size and you can certainly appreciate the battery pack being slung low which really improves the handling and it feels solid and not chintzy. Be aware that using the heater really sucks the battery life very quickly, just use the seat heaters. I commute 45 miles a day and there is plenty of battery life in at at the end of the day, just plug into 110 and its ready for work fully charged the next morning. Sound system is just OK. Interior plastics are hard, doors sound flimsy and takes practice in closing them 1st time, everytime.

  Spark EV 2LT - 2014 Chevrolet Spark EV
  By lotsofpaper - December 4 - 1:08 pm

  I leased the Spark EV in Feb 2014 and its a secondary car and I travel about 30 miles roundtrip to and from work and this is on freeways mostly and I travel at about 70mph. No issues getting up to speed in fact I often catch up to the cars in front. Ive come to really enjoy the quiet ride. Once home I usually have about 58 miles of range left, I charge with a level 1 charger at 12amps which is fine for me. I did get a Level 2 charger for free from Bosch but havent used it yet. I would recommend driving this vehicle in mixed driving and see how you like it. Range will be impacted if you live or commute over a lot of hills.
