* Based on opinions and should be considered as general guidance only.
- Reliability (4)The Spark generally has a good reputation for reliability, with few major issues reported for this model year. Its simple mechanics contribute to its dependability.
- Maintenance (5)Maintenance costs are typically very low due to its small engine, readily available parts, and simple design. Fuel economy is also a strong point.
- Technology (4)Despite being an LS trim, it comes with a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto, which is excellent for the price point and year.
- Comfort (3)Interior comfort is decent for a subcompact, with surprisingly good headroom. Rear legroom is tight, and the seats offer basic support suitable for short commutes.
- Dynamics (3)The 2017 Chevrolet Spark LS CVT offers adequate city driving dynamics with easy maneuverability, though it can feel underpowered on highways. The CVT is smooth but doesn't inspire spirited driving.
