2013 Chevrolet Spark Safety Before Covington Cars

Here at Art Gamblin Motors, your Covington Car Dealer, we understand that great safety in a vehicle involves much more than just what happens during a collision. And the 2013 Chevrolet Spark embodies this approach to safety very well. Although Spark is a small efficient car, it’s very big on safety. The Spark was designed with a full array of class-leading safety and security features. It delivers comprehensive safety before, during and after a collision. In order to provide excellent safety before an accident ever happens, The Spark features the following:

Standard 4-wheel Antilock Brakes

Provide confident stopping ability.

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.

Standard Electronic Brake force Distribution

Balances braking forces across all four wheels for outstanding stopping performance and more even brake wear.

Traction Control

All Spark models feature a standard 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.

StabiliTrak Electronic stability Control Sys tem

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 respond properly, StabiliTrak automatically engages the appropriate braking and traction controls to help the driver get back on the intended course.

Standard Daytime Running Lamps

Automatically illuminate to help make the vehicle more visible to other drivers and pedestrians. 

Tire Pressure Monitor

The Tire Pressure Monitor system transmits tire pressure readings from each tire to the Driver Information Center (DIC) so the driver can take action to ensure all tires are properly inflated. A  raphic on the DIC shows real-time PSI values.

OnStar Vehicle Diagnostics

Every month it automatically sends you an email with the results of hundreds of checks of your  engine, transmission, antilock brakes and more.

Seattle Chevrolet Dealer Gets First Chevrolet Volt

Art Gamblin Motors a Chevrolet Dealer serving the greater Seattle area has been one given one of the first 2012 Chevrolet Volts in the area.  In an agreement with Chevrolet; Gamblin has dedicated the first car for demonstrations purposes, giving people the opportunity to drive this new technology.  So far the car has used $11.00 worth of gas in 552 miles or is getting 173 miles to the gallon.  Alan Gamblin points out that it would be getting better mileage if they hadn’t forgotten to plug it in two nights.

As one of the first Seattle Chevrolet Dealers to get the Volt we are excited to have anyone come take this vehicle for a spin.

The Chevrolet Volt uses electricity to move the wheels at all times and speeds.  For trips around 38 miles, the Volt is powered only by electricity stored in its 16-KWh, lithium-ion battery.  When the battery’s energy is depleted, a gasoline engine seamlessly powers the generator providing electricity to power the Volt’s electric drive.  This extends the range of the Volt for an additional 300+ miles without stopping until the battery can be re-charged.  Unlike the competition, the Volt eliminates “range anxiety,” giving the confidence and peace of mind that the driver won’t be stranded by a depleted battery.  Because of the backup gasoline engine, Volt may be taken across country on vacation.

Seattle Chevrolet Volt

Volt can be plugged either into a standard household 110v outlet or use 240v for charging. The vehicle’s intelligent charging technology enables the Volt’s battery to recharge in eight hours using a standard house hold outlet.  A full charge costs about $1.00 per day in electricity and will consume less electric energy than the average home’s refrigerator and freezer unit.

Gamblin’s agreement is to have a Volt on hand to drive for the next six months.  So please come and drive this car.
