Overview & Reviews

For 2014, the Chevrolet Spark receives a new continuously variable transmission (CVT) that replaces the previous four-speed automatic. Chevy says the CVT reduces engine noise on the freeway and increases both fuel economy and acceleration. The rest of the car is pretty much unchanged, though enhancements have been made to the Spark's smartphone connectivity (late availability).

• Spacious interior
• Inexpensive without feeling cheap
• Available high-tech features.

• Slow acceleration
• Rear seats a hassle to fold down.

  Zippy Go Cart - 2014 Chevrolet Spark
  By kimburlee - May 11 - 10:06 pm

  Ive had the car for a few months and put almost three thousand miles on it. I tried the automatic but man, was it lousy. Floorin it and nothin. The manual though, fun stuff. I feel like a kid again with my go cart. Its no frills like my go cart but it has AC (not the best but I dont live in Phoenix so whatevs). The sound system aint that great but I dont care. I got it super cheap and brand new. I love zippin around town in it. Recently I drove it into the mountains and it was fun! I can imagine the automatic would have sucked up there though. I thoroughly enjoy the interior cloth or whatever it is. Best of all, 38.5 MPG in town.

  Quirky, but loveable - 2014 Chevrolet Spark
  By tishpit1 - December 6 - 8:15 am

  Have a 2014 Spark LT1 with nearly 18,000 miles on her (I drive a lot). This car has it +s and -s, thats for sure. PROS: The driving position is comfortable for me and I have a horrible back, so its hard finding a car that doesnt cause me pain. This one is kinda fun to drive and handles very well for an econo-car. Roomy cargo area with nearly-flat folding rear seat. Dash is nice and touch-screen radio also works well. MPG is avg. 38+ in mixed driving in Florida (level, but lots of a/c). Recommend dealer installed fog lights for night/bad weather driving. CONS: had bad hesitation problem and lurching at very slow speeds but "cured" by using 89 octane gas. A/c is poor - weak fan.

  Blown Motor - 2014 Chevrolet Spark
  By got1onme - March 21 - 12:47 pm

  I test drove a 2014 Spark at my local dealership, I noticed the "check engine" light was on when the salesman and I returned to the dealership. I like the cars build so I purchased another Spark, one with more up grades on it, It had only 11 miles on it. I bought the car and after just 3 1/2 weeks, the "Check Engine" light came on in my new Spark while on my way home from work white smoke poured out from under the bottom of the car. I am very disappointed because I was so proud of my little car. I am in a rental waiting on GM to send a new motor

  Spark 2LT - 2014 Chevrolet Spark

  The Sparks main claim to fame is four doors and a real back seat. Compared to the Smart Car and Scion IQ those features leave them behind. The gas mileage is at least comparable and the sound level and ride are much better. Compared to the Fiat 500, rear seat room and access is much better in the Spark, performance is about the same. The new CVT is a great improvement over the previous 4 speed auto. So far I am very impressed.
