Got a Chevy Spark LT Mint Green delivered last thursday(6 Sep) from Sundaram Motors, Bangalore.This is a fully loaded model with features like AC, PS, four power windows, central locking, rear wiper with defogger, front fog lamps, roof rails, spoiler, 60:40 split rear seats, rich blue fabric seats..........
I was quite satisfied with the overall performance of the car when I took a TD.I am really happy that I bought this car. Clocked 250KM in 3 days.Its powerful, got gr8 ride and handling, looks good, good interiors and a gr8 city car. Can be driven easily in congested city traffic of bangalore in 2nd and 3rd gear.
AC is powerful but takes some time to start and doesnot have immediate chilling effect like swift or even an alto.
Gear box is not gr8 since the shift action is long and a bit notchy. I believe it takes some time to get adjusted. May be it gets settled after a couple of service.
Ride is a bit harsh in slow speeds and as speedo needle increases, ride gets better and better.
Power steering is light and accurate.
Car is easy to manouvre and drive in city traffic. Cabin is really silent.
Have not crossed 70KMPH since its in runin period.
Pros:
Great build quality
Great ride and handling
Easy to drive in congested city traffic
Gr8 on highways
Silent cabin
Head turner on roads
Fun to drive on open roads
3 year / 1 lac km warranty
Cons:
No Tacho
A bit pricey
Will keep the post updated over a period of time.
