2017 Chevrolet Spark

Chevrolet introduces the 2017 Spark ACTIV, a sportier take on the brand's versatile, connected mini-car, featuring trail-inspired accents and upscale features that complement its urban-chic design.

The new 2017 Spark ACTIV is all about adventurous fun and style with an attitude, yet it still offers a sophisticated, and efficient drive. Its robust architecture serves as the foundation for a sophisticated driving experience. The body structure enables engineers to tune ride and handling more precisely, for greater feelings of control and refinement, while fostering a quieter ride.

Spark ACTIV features unique front and rear fascias with accents influenced by off-road skidplates, as well as a new 15-inch wheel design and a revised suspension that increases the ride height by 0.4 inch. Additional unique content includes: Specific grille pattern with ACTIV nameplate; Round fog lamps and fog lamp housings integrated in the front fascia; Contrasting wheelhouse moldings and hatchback cladding; Rocker moldings and Roof rails.

The well-appointed interior features standard black, heated leatherette front seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel, along with Chevrolet MyLink with a 7-inch-diagonal color touchscreen and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, Rear-vision camera system, Air conditioning and remote keyless entry.

The Spark is a mini-car that offers features and technologies not typically found in the segment, including 10 standard airbags. When it comes to hauling gear on a weekend getaway, the Spark's roomy cargo area offers 27.2 cubic feet of storage space with the rear seat folded. Power comes from an Ecotec 1.4L engine offered with a manual transmission or a continuously variable transmission. It offers an estimated 98 horsepower, which is a 16-percent increase over the previous model.
