2013 FIAT 500 POP vs 2013 Chevrolet Spark Bonney Lake Cars

2013 Chevrolet Spark

Here at Art Gamblin Motors, your Bonney Lake car dealer, we are very excited about Chevrolet’s new mini car: The all-new 2013 Spark! The Spark dominates the mini car segment with more available features, outstanding value and solid performance. This fact is clear when comparing the Chevy Spark to the Fiat 500 POP:

The Fiat 500 is available as a 2-door hatchback or 2-door convertible. Unlike Spark, the 500 is not offered in a 5-door configuration. The 500 is available in three main trim levels (Pop, Sport and Lounge) with 3 additional special-edition models (Pink Ribbon, Gucci and the high- performance Abarth). All models share the same 101 hp 1.4L engine with the exception of the Abarth which adds a turbocharger to the 1.4L engine for additional power. Transmission choices for the Pop version–which competes against Spark–include a 5-speed manual or 6-speed automatic.

Chevrolet Spark Advantages vs. Fiat 500 POP

• 5-door body style. All Chevrolet Sparks are 4-door hatchbacks. All Fiat 500 hatchbacks are two door models. A 4-door hatchback body style is not currently available.

• Standard alloy wheels on all models. All Spark models have standard alloy wheels regardless of trim level. The Fiat 500 Pop model features steel wheels with wheel covers.

• Superior value. Not only is Chevrolet Spark 1LT priced over $1,705 less than Fiat 500 Pop ($14,495 vs. $16,200), it’s also better equipped.

• Less-expensive fuel requirement. The Chevrolet Spark runs on regular unleaded gasoline. The Fiat 500’s recommended fuel is premium unleaded–which currently is about 6% more expensive.

• Larger vehicle. Spark’s interior has 10.7 cu. ft. more passenger volume than Fiat 500. In this class of vehicle, passenger volume is an important factor in determining comfort.

• Cargo volume. Spark’s cargo area is over 16% larger than the Fiat 500 cargo area. A larger cargo area contributes to a vehicle’s versatility.

• More front leg room. Spark has 1.3″ more front leg room than Fiat 500.

• Rear seat comfort. Spark has 3.5″ more rear seat leg room than Fiat 500.

• Greater front and rear hip room. Spark has more front hip room and a whopping 4.9″ more rear hip room (47.5″ vs. 42.6″) than Fiat 500.

• Standard OnStar. Spark’s standard OnStar telematics system provides a suite of services including Automatic Crash Response, Turn-by-Turn Navigation, Vehicle Diagnostics and much more. A telematics system is not available on Fiat 500.

• MyLink Radio. Fiat 500 has nothing comparable to Spark’s MyLink Radio with its embedded apps. In fact, the Fiat 500 radio does not include a touch-screen–even on its highest-level models.

• Standard satellite radio. Satellite radio, with three months of service included, is standard on Spark 1LT.

Satellite radio is an available accessory on Fiat 500.

• Bluetooth for phone and audio. Spark 1LT features

Bluetooth for both phone and audio. Fiat 500 has what

it calls Blue & Me which provides a wireless phone

interface, but not one for audio.

• Superior warranty peace of mind. The Fiat 500

4-year/50,000-mile powertrain warranty can’t

compete with the Spark’s 5-year/100,000-mile

powertrain warranty. That’s a full 50,000 additional

miles of coverage!

• Emergency roadside assistance. Spark owners

receive the peace of mind of emergency roadside

assistance for five years. Fiat 500 buyers receive only

four years of roadside assistance.

• More air bags. All Spark models have 10 standard air

bags. Fiat 500 has seven air bags.

• Oil Life Monitor. This feature is not offered on Fiat 500.

Nissan Versa vs 2013 Chevrolet Spark Buckley Cars

2013 Chevrolet Spark

Here at Art Gamblin Motors, your Buckley car dealer, we are very excited about Chevrolet’s new mini car: The all-new 2013 Spark! The Spark dominates the mini car segment with more available features, outstanding value and solid performance. This fact is clearly evident when comparing the Chevrolet Spark to the Nissan Versa:

The 2012 Nissan Versa is available as an all-new 4-door Sedan or as a carryover 5-door hatchback. Since the current hatchback is near the end model run and will be redesigned later this year, our comparison is  against the new sedan. The Versa Sedan is available in three models: S, SV and SL. All Versa models share the same 1.6L DOHC 4-cylinder engine. Transmission choices are limited to a 5-speed manual or CVT automatic. Unlike the Chevrolet Spark, the Versa is not a mini car, but rather a larger subcompact. It competes against Spark by virtue of its price.

Chevrolet Spark advantages vs. Nissan Versa S Sedan

• Fresh 5-door body style. All Chevrolet Sparks are 4-door hatchbacks. The 2012 Versa hatchback is an old model that is about to be replaced. If you want an updated Versa, you must settle for a 4-door sedan.

• Standard alloy wheels on all models. All Spark models have standard alloy wheels regardless of trim level. The Nissan Versa S and SV models have standard steel wheels with wheel covers.

• Available Hill Start Assist. Both of Spark’s transmissions include a Hill Start Assist feature. This feature is not available with Nissan Versa.

• More front leg room. Spark has more front leg room than Nissan Versa.

• Standard OnStar. Spark’s standard OnStar telematics system provides a suite of services including Automatic Crash Response, Turn-by-Turn Navigation, Vehicle Diagnostics and much more. A telematics system is not available on Nissan Versa.

• MyLink Radio. Nissan Versa has nothing comparable to Spark’s MyLink Radio with its embedded apps.

• OnStar RemoteLink. Spark owners can check on their vehicle diagnostics, lock/unlock their doors and do much more from anywhere they have mobile phone service. OnStar RemoteLink takes connectivity a step further by delivering real-time vehicle information at your fingertips. Since Nissan Versa lacks a telematics system, it cannot perform tasks comparable to RemoteLink.

• Standard satellite radio. Satellite radio, with three months’ service included, is standard on Spark 1LT. Satellite radio is not available on Nissan Versa S or SV models. To get satellite radio on Nissan Versa, you must move up to the top-of-the-line SL model and purchase a pricey Tech package.

• More speakers. Chevrolet Spark 1LT includes six

audio speakers. The Nissan Versa S includes only

two speakers.

• Bluetooth for phone and audio. Spark 1LT features Bluetooth for both phone and audio. Bluetooth is not offered on Nissan Versa S. To get Bluetooth on Versa, you must move up to SV model and purchase a convenience package or purchase the SL model.

• Superior connectivity. A USB port is included on Spark 1LT. A USB port is not available on Versa S or SV models. To get a USB port on Versa, you must move up to SL model and purchase a Tech package.

• Superior warranty peace of mind. The Versa’s 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty can’t compete with the Spark’s 5-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty.

• Emergency roadside assistance. Spark owners receive the peace of mind of emergency roadside assistance for five years. Roadside assistance is not available with Versa.

• More air bags. All Spark models have 10 standard air bags. Nissan Versa has six air bags.

• Theft prevention. An engine immobilizer is standard on Spark; not available on Versa.

• Oil Life Monitor. This feature is not offered on Nissan Versa.

• Outside temperature display. All Spark models include a standard outside temperature display. This feature is not available on Versa S.

2013 Chevrolet Spark Ride and Handling Covington Cars

Here at Art Gamblin Motors, your Covington Car Dealer, we are very pleased to be offering the all new 2013 Chevrolet Spark—a vehicle that offers unparalleled value. The value of the Spark is clearly demonstrated by its tight and responsive handling—allowing it to zip in and out of even the most clustered conditions with ease. The high performance and responsiveness of the Spark’s handling is made possible by some ingenious design innovations and the use of high quality materials. The following all contribute to the Sparks great ride and handling:

Chassis

            Body Frame Integral Construction: The Spark derives much of its confident road feel and driving comfort from its stiff body construction. Its body and frame are combined into a single, cohesive unit called Body Frame Integral (BFI) design. Nearly 53% of the Spark’s body construction is made from high strength steel which improves chassis stiffness, reduces noise vibration and harshness and improves driving dynamics. Additional chassis features include:

-Main underbody rails, running continuously from front to rear, provide strength.

-A 4-mount engine cradle contributes to exceptional NVH characteristics.

– Specially tuned engine and cradle mounts are tailored to the engine’s inherent

torque axis, effectively damping vibration transfer and noise.

Suspension

             Front– The Spark has an independent front suspension and includes:

-MacPherson struts, coil springs and direct-acting 19-mm stabilizer bar.           

            Rear- The Spark rear suspension is a semi-independent compound-crank (torsion beam) design that combines all of the advantages of a conventional torsion beam axle, such as space requirements, with low weight and the ability to be specifically tuned—includes:

-Torsion beam, coil springs, gas-charged

-shock absorbers.

-The space-saving layout of the rear axle helps

-Spark achieve a low center of gravity, enhancing

-Overall agility.

            Steering-All Sparks have power, electric, rack-and-pinion steering—also includes:

-A tight 32.5′ turning diameter promotes excellent handling and maneuverability. For  comparison purposes, the turning diameter for Chevrolet Sonic hatchback is 34.5’ and 35.7’ for Chevrolet Cruze.

-Steering column includes tilt feature.

-No power steering fluid is used and regular

-Maintenance is not required.

            Dinghy Towing Spark-Manual transmission-equipped models can be dinghy towed, on all four wheels, behind a motor home. Automatic transmission-equipped Sparks cannot be dinghy towed.

            Brakes- All Sparks feature ventilated front disc brakes and rear drum brakes. Brake system includes:

-4-wheel ABS

-Standard Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD)

-Brake Assist

-Hill Start Assist

-Standard StabiliTrak Electronic Stability

-Control System

-Traction Control

-Parking brake

– Mechanical cable-driven

-Standard 4-wheel Front Vented Disc,

-Rear Drum Antilock Brakes

-Provide confident stopping ability.

-Standard Electronic Brakeforce

-Distribution (EBD)

-Balances braking forces across all four wheels for

-outstanding stopping performance and more even

-Brake wear.

            Hill Start Assist– When stopped on a steep grade, the Hill Start Assist feature prevents the vehicle from rolling before accelerating–whether facing uphill or down. During the transition when the driver releases the brake pedal, the Hill Holder feature holds the brake pressure (for up

to two seconds) to help ensure the vehicle doesn’t roll.

            Brake Assist Brake Assist senses emergency braking by detecting the speed or force the driver applies to the brake pedal and boosts the power as needed. Under certain conditions, the Brake Assist may activate the ABS more quickly and easily than vehicles without the feature.

            StabiliTrak Electronic Stability Control System– StabiliTrak Electronic Stability Control System uses a yaw sensor, lateral accelerometer and steering angle sensor to continually monitor the driver’s steering input and the vehicle’s actual course. If the vehicle does not follow the driver-intended path, StabiliTrak automatically engages the appropriate braking and traction controls to help the driver get back on the intended course.         

            Traction Control– All Spark models feature a standard all-speed Traction Control system that limits wheel spin when one or both of the drive wheels begin to lose traction. When this happens, the system brakes the spinning wheel(s) and/or reduces power to limit wheel spin.

Used Car vs New 2013 Chevrolet Spark Bonney Lake Cars

Lately the price of used vehicles has been on the rise. There are multiple reasons for this such as the fact that rental agencies are holding onto their rentals longer, supply shortages and many other factors. When you’re considering purchasing a used vehicle also consider an inexpensive new 2013 Chevrolet Spark here at Art Gamblin Motors, your Bonney lake Dealership. Below are some great reasons to consider a new Spark over a used vehicle:

Interest Rates

The interest rate on a new vehicle is typically less than the rate for t he same time period for a used vehicle. This difference can add up considerably over the course of the loan.

NHTSA New Car Safety Ratings

Starting with 2011 models, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has introduced tougher tests and rigorous new 5-star safety ratings that provide more information about vehicle safety and crash avoidance technologies. Because of the more stringent tests, ratings for 2011 and newer vehicles should not be compared to ratings for 1990-2010 models. This is important because a used vehicle that earned a 5-star rating from just a few years ago may no longer rank five stars under the new, tougher testing standards. This is due in part because the use of high-strength steel has grown substantially in recent years. High-strength steel improves chassis stiffness, reduces noise vibration and improves driving dynamics. An older used car may not have incorporated nearly as much high-strength steel in its construction as the new Spark. Also, few used vehicles can match Spark’s 10 air bags.

Reduced Maintenance

Whenever you purchase a used vehicle, you should expect to spend additional money for service or repairs. A new Spark will be relatively maintenance-free compared to a used vehicle for the several thousand miles. A new vehicle likely won’t need new tires, a battery, exhaust system or brakes during the first few years. In addition, features like long-life spark plugs, timing chain and filled-for life transmission (under normal driving conditions), help make Spark an economical vehicle to own and drive.

Peace of Mind

Used vehicle warranty coverage varies tremendously if indeed there is any coverage at all. If the vehicle is relatively new, there may still be some of the manufacturer’s warranty remaining. If the vehicle is older, it may be sold “as is.” New Chevrolet Spark owners enjoy the peace of mind of having a 3-year/36,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty and 100,000-mile powertrain warranty coverage. In addition, roadside assistance and courtesy transportation may not be offered on a used vehicle purchase.

Cutting Edge Technology

Spark’s MyLink Radio is designed to be integrated with constantly evolving, smartphone technology and is updateable. A used vehicle may not include features such as Bluetooth, a USB port or an auxiliary input jack—features that facilitate hands-free communication and smartphone integration.
