Chevrolet Spark EV Hatchback (2013-2016)
6% Neofiliac
Product Gallery
Product Overview
Chevrolet Spark EV is a entry-level subcompact hatchback in production from 2013 to 2016. It was powered by 143hp of electric twisting power aided by a battery capacity of 21kWh.
Unfortunately, the Spark EV was meant primarily for city commutes and has horrible range. It is severely underpowered, and its battery pack has a limited life cycle. The vehicle is not quite ugly, but its basic suspension and chassis setup meant that it handles poorly.
Another plus is the small 10.3m (33.8ft) turning circle.
