TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Chevrolet Spark

Chevrolet Spark Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearComment
2013 The Spark's EPA highway rating of 38 mpg isn't bad, but many much heavier, much more powerful cars do as well. An EPA city rating of 32 mpg is more impressive. see full Chevrolet Spark review

Chevrolet Spark Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2014 4dr Hatch 84-horsepower 1.2L I4
CVT FWD		 The mileage is well above the EPA rating: I'm getting in a mix of city, suburb and little highway driving 39.5 MPG with the CVT. I've had it up to over 40 MPG with a very light foot and more non-stop driving. That is outstanding! I like that I'm getting mileage similar to some hybrid cars and saving about $10,000 on the purchase price, plus not having any concerns about hybrid ideosyncricies. This car is easy to work on, drives like a "normal" car, and doesn't look like a billion other cars on the road. The stock tires appear to be regular tires, so wondering if the MPG could be bumped up with low resistance tires? Maybe will try that eventually when the current tires become worn. see full Chevrolet Spark review
