General Motors South Africa’s (GMSA) locally-produced Chevrolet Spark celebrates its first year of South African production this month with five different and distinct models to choose from.

Chevrolet Spark is the small business solution vehicle

The Chevrolet Spark Pronto is fitted with a 1.2-litre petrol engine producing 60 kW of power and 108Nm of torque and is mated to a five-speed manual gearbox. Fuel consumption is rated at 5.4-litres/100 km on the combined average cycle and CO2 emissions of 129 g/km.

The Chevrolet Spark Pronto is a perfect solution for small businesses, and serves as a practical and versatile city runabout. The Spark Pronto still features the same high levels of passenger comfort and safety as found in other Spark models, which include dual front airbags, ABS with EBD, power steering, remote central locking and air conditioning all available as standard.

“Thanks to the flexibility afforded to us due to the local manufacture of the ever-popular Chevrolet Spark, we have been able to tailor the local range and offer South Africans really unique options to suit their tastes. The new Spark Pronto fills a gap in the market where small businesses may not have been able to afford or require a bona fide bakkie like the Chevrolet Utility – now they can enjoy a purpose-built compact commercial vehicle which not only offers generous practicality but also comes with the verve offered by other Spark derivatives,” said Chevrolet Brand Manager, Tim Hendon.

Chevrolet Spark offers option for every need

Complementing the Spark Pronto and Campus models, the revised range consists of the new Spark, Spark LS and Spark LT derivatives. Each of these vehicles offer enhanced levels of specification and added allure.

The Chevrolet Spark range is further enhanced by the new premium look and feel of the LS and LT models, which continue along the strong lines created in the A-segment by the original Spark L and LS models.

The Spark LS features chrome detailing, 14-inch alloy wheels, electric front windows and mirrors, auto-locking doors and steering wheel-mounted audio controls. The range-topping Spark LT sports 15-inch alloy wheels, extra colour-coding on the body, electric windows at the rear, side airbags, rear parking sensors and an optional decal package.
