Chevy Spark is a TERRIBLE Car… 

Hey everyone! I love that everyone is defending the Spark! If you watch the full video, I explain why I actually like the car. Small cars rock!

The car isn't terrible - but your review sure is.

You took an economy CITY car .... up a mountain. What's next, a complaint on an SUV not doing well in the middle of a lake? Dumb. What a waste of two minutes.

I love my chevy spark car, save me money on gas and affordable, anyone should be grateful to have a car especially during these hard times

I mean, can't complain. 98hp going uphill in the thinnest air at 14000 ft. It's pretty impressive

I have a 2016 spark. I call it the adventure spark it’s been everywhere Yosemite. Santa Cruz Disneyland. Camping all over a daily commuter! I pay for the Wi-Fi service so even in the mountains with no cell service I can use the spark as a Wi-Fi hub!! I also have installed roof racks for snowboarding, my 29in bike, kyak, and I have also hauled fencing material on the racks. Last edition was the tow package. I tow a 15ft aluminum boat with the spark!! Truly never stops impressing me!!

deciding between a Spark and other small cars cause dont need anything too much cause i want to save up for a house

If your car starts shaking by certain high speed then your wheel needs balance, me and my friends have chevy sparks reliable and nimble able to push, i suggest get the sprk checked for service

You compliment the car quite a lot for a "terrible" car. If you want to have any kind of success on RU-vid, avoid clickbaiting. There's no need for that. All it takes is a good video. I enjoyed the video.

I drove my spark across the USA didn’t have any issues with mountains.

I absolutely love my 2019 spark! It's so economical and does everything I need it to do. Not to mention that it's very easy on maintenance

I just bought my 2020 Spark LT and it's fun as hell to drive, love it. Found one with only 15k miles on it, got it for 13.5k! Gotta slap a turbo on it.

I've had one for 3 years and it's been economic in maintenance and gas in the broken streets of Costa Rica. I unfortunately had a car accident a month ago, crashing upfront with a Peugeot 206 at 80pmh and it held amazingly. Nothing happened to my girl and I. I definitely recommend this car for anyone looking for a subcompact.

I have a 2017 manual transmission spark and I absolutely love it. It’s not the fanciest thing out there but god damn it gets me where I want to go anywhere no problem. It’s fast and nimble, fits everywhere, and is so fun to drive. I have all the basics, CarPlay/ navigation, backup camera, the heat and ac work great, and the best in my opinion is the uphill brake assist (because it’s a manual). I didn’t even know that was a thing till I had this but boy do I love it and appreciate it so much. Based off your video I feel like the experience of an automatic vs a stick might be pretty different. Yeah my car isn’t the most powerful thing out there but I feel like I can get going fast pretty damn easy because of the manual trans. It’s simple, it gets good gas mileage and it’s nimble and preppy and I can scoot out sketchy situations no problem. I honestly love my car so much. If I could change anything I wish it was a modern Suzuki jimmny lol more space in the back to put stuff and 4wl drive. Otherwise I think it’s great and it works for me, so far it haven’t let me down.

I'm on my third Spark and love them. I don't want a worthless gadget basket I just want a car. The Spark has a timing chain not a belt and can be had with manual transmission. I'm not intrested in Smokin US 30 drag raceway acceleration, I made 45 mpg on a trip at 70mph loaded with luggage and ac. Chevy says you can get a Trax now that Spark is discontinuing. Nope Chevy not spending 6k more, will go to your competition. Got my 2013 for 11k, the 2014 for 10k and the 2020 12.6k off the lot.

I've got a 2020 Spark going on almost two years now. I also have an Audi Q5 Prestige which is not my everyday, drive to work, car. They are both great cars; however, the Audi is much more comfortable to drive in. The Spark was never meant to be comfortable. However, it is reliable, drivable, and economical transportation. I've been diligent in changing the oil, checking the tires and fluids. Also, the Spark is better and more fun to drive than my '69 Mustangs and '74 Grand Prix. And I managed to hit 100 MPH going downhill; and, does 80+ without complaints.

This guy is the only one that say the spark is bad

The hell is so funny about a car locking when you put it in gear

Chevy Sparks a great little car. The things bulletproof and the five-speed manual is smooth.

I am surprised that it doesn't have a temperature gauge. That's very odd. By looking at the steering wheel it does have some creature comforts it has cruise control which is not standard on that car. It has a key fob so it has automatic door locks also which are not standard for that car. This is the upgraded spark.

My 2017 Spark has been a wonderful car. Only replaced the tires and air filter in 5 1/2 years.

I think you are crazy, this model chevy Spark is really fast and fun to drive, you are misleading the viewers, you need to learn how to drive dude, thumbs down for you

13 spark Lt and I love it. I keep saying I'm gonna replace it, that I'm not putting anymore money in it but it been paid off for years, the title cost $48. New transmission last year $2000 is gonna give me another 100000 miles. New muffler this year $200. Next is new wheel arms will cost about $500, And fixing things in this car is so simple..I have realized I would rather put a few hundred dollars in this car every year and keep it running then signing up for a new car payment

I have a 2019 spark. It does great in curves and on the interstate. Not great on immediate take off in lower gear. After you get the Auto matic transmission started good it will fly down the road. Just don't pull out I'm front of any one. No punch power at first. I enjoy mine. I have driven mine 50k miles. I don't get him saying body rolls. I can hug the curve s and mountains great.

I’m going to miss this car. It looks great and I had it for 3 years. Unfortunately my brother crashed it last Sunday and now I have to find another one brand new

It doesn’t matter how cheap, slow and terrible looking a car can be because you can either be in a terrible financial situation no matter what because all you need is something to get around places as it’s essential rather than just walking or taking the bus.

Got a soft spot for these cheap, simple little cars. Great video as always bud.

Blame Nissan for the transmission. It's the continually variable transmission. My 2021 Chevy Spark has a 5 speed manual transmission and it has no problems getting up a hill.

It's a eco car. What do you expect for 12k

Hey how’s the Chevrolet Spark in the winter?does it start at -20? How’s the highway snow underneath screw it up even on shovelled

I just put in an order for a 2022 LS with manual transmission. Stick shift is on the endangered species list, and I seriously don't like auto transmissions, and despise CVTs, so I wanted to snap up a 5 speed go cart while I still can. Honestly, I would be willing to pay EXTRA for something with a clutch. Same goes for the manual windows, mirrors and locks. Last time I drove with passengers in the back seat was 10 years ago, so everything behind the front seats will be cargo space. The Spark fits exactly what I need. 20 more HP would be nice, granted, but with the manual, I can just let it rev a little more before shifting. If the deal comes through, I might be getting one of the last ones off the assembly line, and am pretty excited.

Your car is actually a higher trim, usually they don't have power windows, cheaper trim, hubcaps, stuff like that, and a manual. The manual is decent from what I've heard I think it would be more fun to drive.

I've had my spark for 8 years. I drive a mountain everyday. You don't know what you are talking about.

Bought a brand new automatic 2020 Spark that now has about 36k on it. My only complaint is it is not speedy to accelerate, but once it's going it is smooth. So smooth I have to put on cruise control, or I will go too fast. My car has NEVER shaken at 80 mph. Another downside is it's not quiet in the cabin especially if you're on worn roads. Interior materials are not luxury. On a scale of 1 to 10 I'd say I love this car about an 8. People not needing a lot of room can get a lot out of this car. Great city car. Great gas mileage. Soooo easy to get in and out of spaces (LOVE that).

I have a 2014 LS model in grape ice that we bought new. This one has power windows but no power locks or cruise. It has alloy wheels and the CVT and came with the upgrade grill. I replaced the tires with ones slightly wider and found a spare tire and jack for it, they didn't have spare tires until later years. It has been reliable and is fun to drive but it is no race car but will cruise at highway speeds all day getting 43 mpg. Too bad this is the last month of production for them.

Where the spark really shines is off roading .

I don’t understand, there’s nothing wrong with this hatchback

My only complaint about my 2017 Spark is I drive it through a car wash tonight and the car wash was so powerful it ripped my wifi antenna off and I actually came here to get ideas how to replace this but found no repairs yet. Might have to call the dealership ship because now I get 3 radio stations, no maps, and no in car calling or voice texts and since I travel for work and rely on maps and in car calls work is gonna be tough!! 🤦‍♀️

Why do ahole expect to get a 98 horse power car.

This is my personal car permanently . And , Honestly The Best Compact car ever had ! Canada #1 Selling Car

That’s actually a two seater in the back it’s not an actual seat if you check there’s only two seatbelts

My 2020 Chevy Spark LS manual is well built and fun to drive. I am glad I bought one.

Your music is too loud

I love this car, I just bought my second one and it's still as fun as it always was.

I have had a Chevy Spark 2017 for 6 years now and I absolutely love my car!! Pretty much maintenance free car...only have had to do regular oil changes, tires, a couple battery replacement, still have original brakes just checked at 90,000 miles and still good! Has wifi and all the fancy things SUVs have just alittle smaller!! Still running strong and about 6 payments left. Next car will be the Chevy Trax which the 2025 is gorgeous!! I do not live in the mountains but I do agree anything uphill wound be alittle struggle with the Spark but in rural Illinois is PERFECT!! Nice review! ❤

You complaining about the lack of flappy paddles let’s me know this channel is awful. Real enthusiasts will complain that this subcompact doesn’t have a manual. Manual transmissions make even the most boring cars like the Versa alive.

I leased a Smart Car for 3 years before I bought my Chevy Spark, so it's never felt like a little car to me. XD

j'ai une spark de 2010 avec 70 000 km, j'ai jamais eu aucun problème et elle fonctionne vraiment bien. Alors voilà, j'habite en France et comme certainement vous le savez Opel qui distribuait cette marque à demander à GM de ne plus en vendre dans notre pays car ils ne vendaient plus de leurs petites Opel, maintenant la marque Chevrolet n'est plus distribuée dans notre pays sauf si on veut acheter une Camaro et Opel ne vend pas plus de petites voitures. Triste réalité dans notre pays corrompu.

I did my 2021 deer season in that car. It can definitely fit a deer in the back with the seats down. 😂

I bought my spark because siting in it to drive is not that much different than sitting in my truck & Jeep. Compared to when I would go back between my truck & my wife's Acord. My Spark car payment + gas is $365 a month. Just gas in the Jeep just to work and back $400 a month My truck $500.

It may be true to me, but why the heck does it cost so much money dude...

Don’t talk down my car. I love it it parks easy it’s quiet it’s comfortable. It gets excellent gas mileage. The air conditioner works fantastic. It’s got great power down here in flat South Texas. Maybe if you live in Montana no but if you live down here it’s perfect.

I have owned three chevy Sparks. My first thought is you should put 92 octane for the best performance. Also, the transmission works best with a higher octane fuel as well. My guess is the engine vacuum from better combustion handles the transmission better. For those of you that own a Spark be sure to change the transmission fluid at 30,000 miles. The audio system and Bluetooth connectivity are much better than other vehicles I have owned. The spark is a huge success for Chevrolet sold in 63 countries around the world. It is a car not entirely meant for American roads. Its best described by my experience as ideally suited for a Caribbean island five miles long. The 2016 model and above is a vastly better car than the 2015 and earlier models. In my experience, the spark is not one to drive forcing acceleration hard from a stop light. Risking damage to the transmission is to be avoided however highway speeds are quite comfortable once up to speed. Stopping and turning are very precise making it lots of fun to drive.

Try a 1972 beetle 6 volt at night up the road . Terrible . Try life threatening.

I driven this as a rental in Tennessee n didn’t have not a problem. Loved it actually

I got on and my brother and oldest boy and never a problem ..all bought new and all have 60k to 80k on them now

I got it for $12.5k for LT1 version, almost 80k on it, zero issues, great gas milage, perfect car for a city. You can disable function of door locking. You simply don't know car you are talking about-the-museum. We did 3k miles road trip with 4 people in it, it was fine.

Its not as bad as those ear rings its the Butch woman look.

Not Smart.

No gae is a smart man had to say it

I like mine, got it with 0 miles. Beats driving my built ws6 trans am 😂.

The Automatic Spark's are the worst but the 5 speed manuals are surprisingly pretty decent.

I love my 2018 Spark, and I take care of it to the point that people have asked if it's brand new on four different occasions in the last year. Before that, I had a Chevy Metro hatchback - it lasted 19 years!!!!! This will be my last Chevy after driving them nonstop for 47 years as a protest of their discontinuance of all subcompact cars since they stopped production on the Spark this year. It baffles me - people bitch about gas prices as they drive off in their gas-guzzler that's far bigger than they need. (I call those PRVs for "p*nis replacement vehicles".) Maybe Big Oil is giving carmakers kickbacks to stop producing gas-saving cars?

What do yu expect from a rental car goofy

It's a very good car for the price, it's very cheap, it's not terrible, it doesn't spend a lot of gas or maintenance

I own a chevy sonic and I like hugging mountain roads downhill . I'm planning on getting a spark and deck it out. Thanks for sharing your video. How I wish a spark RWD

I can’t believe that there was no traffic! The roads in Colorado are USUALLY pretty busy!

I just got a 2020 spark. I love light small cars. Dieing breed. It's a 90s subcompact made with newer parts. I got rolly windows 😂 nothing weighing it down. I do want to upgrade the suspension though. He's not wrong about the body roll 😅😅

I love mine, 2018 LT1. I never thought I'd like having a little car, but dammit...

I'm currently driving a 2009 Chevy Spark LS got 198 000 on the clock and drives like a dream,It can fit anywhere which makes parking it very easy, it's my first car and has never given me issues, of coarse it's not made for comfort but sure does make a lot of economic sense,the funny thing is I didn't even like it when I bought it just wanted a car to take me from A to B but that thing made love to me and I love it back

I drained the battery in my rented Spark by listening to the radio for 5 minutes with the engine off.

Why aren’t you allowed to film literal rocks?

The Chevrolet Spark is a Daewoo. A korean company. GM rubber stamped their name on it. The manual version is a lot more fun

I hate to break it to you, but the spark has little to no give and the body is firm firm firm. I’ve had mine for almost 6 months now- a 2018 with 65k kms on it. I think perhaps your complaints regarding body roll have to do with your own body rolling on the admittedly flimsy seats with inadequate leg support for those of us with more volume ourselves. As for the transmission sucking, that’s probably true. But if you had a manual you would know it really is a blast on windy roads. Small car fast is always more fun than fast car slow. Ps. It’s a 1.4L 98hp sewing machine under the hood.

There good little cars 🚘 basic very reliable

...This! This is not Doug DeMuro... Let's check His Doug Score on this review.... 😆

This is basically one of the worst reviews I've ever seen.

Those are cool little cars to trick out you could lower them it's got a 4x100 wheel pattern which is common for all the cool Wheels out there in a 15 it also comes in a stick shift which a lot of them don't I would ditch that automatic that's a Cvtand nothing's a dog . But the reason why Chevy still making him is because it was one of the most popular selling small cars that they ever had and it had the highest ratings, I have a Chevy Sonic from 2013 RS they discontinued that car due to all the problems that it was having with the turbo models the PCV was faulty and all kinds of different components would go out on it all the time. But yet the Chevy spark is still going strong I would like to get a model from about 3 years ago slam it down on the ground with the 4x100 wheel pattern I can use arrow racing wheels I could use a ton of different choices of wheels in a 15 inch size get it in the stick shift that car will be a blast even though it's not fast straight pipe it.

The spark is suuuuuch a good cheap to own and use car. My 2015 hasn’t had a single mechanical problem since new.

I agree! It’s AWFUL! Especially the Grape Ice variant. Just something about it 🤷🏻‍♂️

Well yeah it's basically a disposable car, the price didn't tip ya off?

Scotty kilmer says otherwise.

have a 2021 base model with 5 speed manual, paid little over 12K new. Love the simplicity, fun to drive and very economical. In there beginning my buddies were making fun of it (including my wife) but they weren't laughing when gas was hitting over $5/Gal. It's not a Toyota but hey I could have bought two for the price. When I get a wild hair I'll just drive my Camaro SS. THE SPARK RULES !!!

6'7 owner of a 2014 automatic spark and its just a nice lil cruzin car, very basic but love only paying 30$ to fill up. No giddy up n go but it can eventually get upto speeds haha. Gets around central florida pretty well and I actually fit comfortably...just take my back seat out and use it as a larger truck space 🤣

Spesk for yourself. I fucking love my spark. I've come from two jeeps. Its so small and compact snd has so many tools. I really love what i got. I also like only paying $20 to get 250+ miles.

Dear followers!! Don't let the beautiful pictures confuse you . Anyone who buys a new car from GENERAL Motors the chance you threw your money into the trash is very large. In this company there is no customer service, the company's management does not care at all, if you have a problem or a malfunction, you can only pray to God there is a chance that the help will come faster. GM is a very dangerous company, be careful and keep your money safe.!!!Share so more people don't get screwed.GM is a big bluff

Spark is now discontinued 2022 was last year.

Its not the fall that kills you

does it have an CVT Transmission or dual clutch?

Speak for yourself it’s a wonderful 🚗 car for me. It holds 9 gallons gets 404 miles. I rented one Then purchased one only the Luxury Model auto everything and mines tricked out! Beautiful little Gym.

My dad much perfers his 2017 spark va his 2001 civic. He bought both brand new with manual transmissions.

I have a 2019 spark with manual transmission

I have one it is amazing I love it and this is coming from a 20 something female who had a v8 Lincoln before this, yes it was a tiny learning curve but man oh man the only thing I hate is other drivers have car prejudice and gun out more like they can’t see me and I don’t fawn to no one

I love my 2017 Chevy spark 🔥

Not a terrible video review so I will reluctantly give you a like. And you have some great visuals, but I will give you some serious advice to work on your language skills. Think about what you're going to say, practice your word phrases, think professional, think grown up. Don't laugh or be silly. Learn to ad lib without actually sounding like you're making it up along the way.

Decent car, decent review, terrible title

Im curious as to what you think about the bmw i3, love all these small cars lol

you get what u pay for

No donuts!

i love my spark ⚡️ shes the best!!!
