2017 Chevy Spark Review
zhlédnutí 21KPřed 6 lety
Review of the 2017 Chevy Spark which I bought used with 13,000 Miles. Its a base model LS with a 5 speed manual, 1.4 Liter Ecotec 4 Cylinder Engine.
Just another update: 111,023 miles on the odometer. Absolutely no issues! I change the oil every 10,000 miles with full synthetic Valvoline 0w20. I'm still on the factory brakes! Thanks for keeping up! That was for you, My small audience. But I want to tell this Chevy Spark thank HER for keeping up! SHE NEVER LEFT ME STRANDED! Note: The MPG average dropped to 32.8 miles per gallon because I recently added Uber Eats driving in Seattle about 20 hours a week into my life. Still though, those hills, the constant stop and go doing deliveries for the last year, I cant get this thing to go BELOW 32 MPG ...ever! It's not like I baby this thing keeping the RPMs low either. I routinely see 4,500 RPMs as I'm shifting from first to second and second to third. Still 32.8 MPG!
You should throw it in that blue recycle bin. Wait, Im not sure it's recyclable😂
Just a quick update. Just over 77,000 Miles on it. Zero issues. Only thing I had to do was replace the Engine Air Filter, so I dropped in a K&N filter.
Just another update: I have 68,607 Miles on this. Zero Issues and I'm averaging 36.8 miles per gallon. I drive about 70% highway and about 30% city. I usually do about 78mph on the highway so I'm NOT really trying to get great mileage! Around the city, I dart around without trying to get good mileage. I can't get this thing to get below 36mpgs.
There Is Comments Now!
I'm his daughter. Hello.
how can i get hubcaps like that ???
i recently just bought a 2014 chevy spark with 235k miles and automatic, for only $2500, it is in very nice condition and drives great,
Thanks for posting this. Best review I've found of the Spark with a stick-shift. Considering buying one of these used so your review was very helpful.
I’m a long haul trucker so I’m not home much but I needed a RELIABLE car with a warranty. I just got a 2019 Spark LS with the clutch pedal and you’re right on about everything 😉 GREAT CAR 😎 Thsnks for a great video 👍
Cool man 👍 Thanks!
You should do more car reviews.👍
You're not the first person that has said that so I might
The Spark really could have been a much more reliable car if it was powered by the legendary 1NZ-FE Toyota engine and the four speed automatic used in Toyota Yaris and Echo in the last 20 years. Everything else can remain the same. They did this with the Pontiac Vibe and it had the same engine as a Toyota Matrix. I have a 2005 Toyota Echo Hatchback with 133600 miles and in good shape to do another 100000 or more.
Just an update: I have 37,000 miles on it, and average 36.9 MPG on it. STILL ABSOLUTELY NO ISSUES WITH IT! At the time it hit exactly 37,000 miles, I was still in the parking garage at Seatac Airport where I work, and the display actually said 37,000 miles and 37MPG and I took a picture of it. I gotta figure out how to upload that pic. Thanks for all your comments it means a lot! Oh yeah, my Spark's sound system DID come standard with tweeters in the A Pillars, my mistake.
How does she handle pnw weather? Any issues so far? How about cross winds on the freeway...does it pull to the side and winds are strong? From Tacoma.
old school is the best school i low key want to trade my 2015 corolla s for one of these.
Seen 7 April 2019 I own a 2018, LS model. Base. Automatic, Air conditioning, 7in Touch Screen with back up camera. Red on black. Current miles: 9,450 since new. A good car for local driving and Los Angeles traffic. PS. I do have OnStar/ Bluetooth. 2019 model moved OnStar to ceiling of roof. (Away from rear view mirror) and little dress trim in front grill) Enjoy your Spark👍
Chevy Colorado= GMC Canyon Ford Ranger= Mazda B3000 Nissan Frontier= Suzuki Equator And more
2015 rear camera are mandantory for every car
i drive 2016 Spark with no 40k+ and have zero issues with it. It is cheap, but for city driving it is perfect.
great real world review man. good job
I appreciate it man!
I just bought a bran new 2019 red spark LS with the automatic i love it! great review!
Thank you! You will love the mileage!
I do! It’s $17 to fill it up they are great little cars!
Wind up doors. Lol
Yeah I know....unrehearsed and flying by the seat of my pants
No comments?
My girlfriend has been driving the same 2001 van for years, things keep going on it I been trying to tell her to buy a new car for years. I work for gm and right now with the 0%. 84 months I honestly believe it’s the best time to buy. She likes this The Cruze And the sonic She wants the spark in the lt2 which is by far the cheapest for all the extra crap you get for payments under $200 a month. Just wanted to say thanks for the video all the other ones are pretty garbage
Thanks for the reply! Im just a dude!
Honestly think this is the best thorough review I’ve seen of this car. How are you liking it still?
I love this car! Around 26000 miles on the odometer and absolutely no issues! This car does what its supposed to do, get me from work to back on my commute, and give me no issues....it does that extremely well!
VERY INFROMATIVE ! I do appreciate your review !
Thank you! I appreciate the feedback!
Thanks for the nice review, I appreciate seeing an honest owner review of this model, rather than all the dealer walk around reviews. I just test drove a used 2017 Spark LS today w/12k miles the dealer wants about $11k. It was an automatic (yes wish it was a stick) but still it was fun to drive and put a smile on my face. It seemed peppy enough and surprisingly a smooth ride and nice feel. I've always been a fan of smaller cars but haven't had one in a while. I owned a Fiat X/19, Honda CRX, and Miata in past years. I think because small cars let you feel as part of the road... kind of hard to explain. But this car brought back the memory of my first 'NEW' car, (a 82' Toyota Tercel, for $4998 new!) Way back when you could buy cars that were simple and inexpensive. A rare thing nowadays. I really enjoyed driving it and watching your review. True I won't be impressing my neighbors, or my two kids, but hey it's all I really need and I'm thinking I just maybe buying it. Cheers!
I test drive a 2012 Sonic LTZ with only 49k for 6800. Great deal but no fun to drive. I drove a used latest gen Spark for a bit and it was more fun. So now I am searching for a Spark or nice condition Mazda 2.
Nobody pays $13k for a new one, got ours for $11k out the door new for an LS manual. The tweeters do work as the four speakers are the one in the door and the A pillar. Peak power is at 6200rpm but the torque curve is from 2000-4400rpm when it reaches the peak. It also has hill start assist when you are on steep inclines.
redorange thanks for the corrections I did notice a little sound coming from the a-pillar. How do you like it so far?
K C love it so far, only issues have been the recall for the air bags and the AC stopped working but it was just the switch and everything was fixed on warranty. Currently have about 17k miles on ours and I have put Enkei Performance wheels with 195/55/15 tires. We drove it with 3 people and 3 full size suit cases to Vancouver BC and made it there with more than 1/2 talk of gas left in the tank. Not bad considering it only has 9 gallons on the tank and we only had to do a splash of gas back Maple Valley, Wa. Once it’s going up to speed you really don’t notice the lack of power in the flats and it’s easy to go pass the speed limit and be doing 80mph. The only thing I wish it had was a 6th gear for freeway driving to get better mileage so it doesn’t spin so high.
I like mine but I have an oil consumption issue
Have you been using the Dexos1 designated oil that is required for GM vehicles since 2011? I'm sorry to hear that :/
Tell all man. Can I use something else this late in the game?
that car is a piece of shit
Thank you for that! Honesty is the best policy! Although I disagree, I respect your opinion!
You got this thing for $10,000? Couldn’t you buy a new one for $10,000?
A brand new 2017 back in 2017 would have cost about $13,000. I got this used in early 2018 with only about 13K on the odometer for $9,995, which is a pretty good deal.
I just bought a new spark 2018 5spd manual. I paid out the door $14,400 tax and title. Fully loaded with 10 miles on the clock. I got it on a sale from $15,800. I love it! I have been getting 45 miles to the gallon. And it's just big enough for my needs, basically a work car. I'm still at 1500 miles and wouldn't wanna push it to red line just yet!! I actually feel bad taking it up to 3k rpm. But, now I see it can handle 6k rpm! I've missed a couple gears,by not pushing in clutch far enough. It's such a light clutch! But man it's a fun car to drive!!! I subbed! Hope you're car still runs great!!??
@@kevinpeterson4098 The clutch is really light, but after you are used to it, the shifts are butter smooth. My Spark has over 30k miles and I have absolutely NO ISSUES! I know what you mean about "babying" the car at first when it comes to RPMs, but it loves to rev!
Here, I could get brand new LS for $9,500.
I have got a 1999 Chevy prizm base(5spd)with almost 300 k miles on original motor.
Payam yazdi because it’s actually a corolla
It's a Toyota, that's why.
It's even cheaper in Canada, especially without the A/C. $9999 CDN + $1600 CDN destination = $11,599 CDN ($9,094 US) + Tax. Brand new 2018! If you can do without A/C and know how to drive a stick.
Matt Palali all US models come with AC.
That's what I'm trying to say, long as you are able to tolerate temperatures up to 30 degrees Celsius or 86 Fahrenheit, you can save even more in Canada. We have very few days in a year that are over 86F so that's why we have that option. If I lived in Southern US I would definitely need the A/C. It's specific to Canadian market only.
Look like WA area
Desiko Setiawan It is!
This reminds me when I had a Chevy aveo hatchback
It’s a good, honest, simple little car with a low entry price and not a lot of useless crap. I’ve had the exact same car (with the CVT automatic) for about a year, and have been quite happy with it. A couple of other interesting features. There’s one power lock in the driver’s door only. If you bought it used, it’s worth talking to OnStar, they’ll hook you up with the basic plan for 3 years for free. Then you can use the MyChevrolet app on your phone as a key fob if you lock yourself out. The OnStar also includes a 4G LTE WiFi hotspot. You need to get the data plan for it to work, but it’s only $20 per month for unlimited data.
Onstar has been blowing up my email so I should look into it.
Awesome to see a vid of the base model from a guy that actually bought it. I've been thinking of picking one up as well for a reliable commuter. Glad to see a real opinion of a guy who accepts what it is and likes it. Great work!
Thank you! I appreciate the comment!
Looks great. Love it. The base model isn't bad. I like the sonic as well. Nice ride for a small vehicle. Nice screen.
Wait the 2017 LS has a trajectory capable backup cam? You are so lucky, I have the 2016 and it's just stationary. Everything else about the car is the same tho, nice review.
I appreciate it dude. I'm just some fucking guy!
Wow, very informative review. Hope to see more from you.
InkabodCrane Thanks man!
I did a review of a Nissan Frontier recently check it out!
What did this car cost you?
I bought it used for about $9995.
Great review!! Very informative. Nice to get an LCD screen with Android and Apple integrated in a base model $13k vehicle!!
Thank you sir!
