The US is the last market to receive the Spark. There really isn't mich new on the US model besides some cosmetic changes and body stiffening to meet US standards.

The USDM Spark previews the facelifted Spark for other markets.

The facelifted Spark was recently previewed in Paris.

my tire size is 185/55/15, gives your car more grip and provides better balance.
my FC at 10k is at least 14-15 kms/ltr - (tandang sora - edsa - ortigas - and back) my full tank can last me a month, driving it like a race car driver, full rev beating fiesta's, civic's and 2.0 suv when in edsa - this puts a smile on my face everytime

Ano ba talaga ang factory stock tires para sa 2011 Spark 1.2 LT M/T? Kasi dito sa atin sa pinas 155/70 R14 while sa ibang bansa like in Europe 165/60 R15. As always, parang tinitipid na naman tayo dito sa mga local dealers natin para lalaki yong kita nila.

Anyway, kaya tinatanong ko ito kasi gusto ko palitan yong sa akin at gusto ko na within specs sya but at optimal level. So importante ko malaman kasi malaki ang impact nito kung ano dapat ipapalit na hindi maapektuhan masyado yong lakas ng makina, gearbox, fuel consumption, at takbo ng speedometer. Dapat within 2.5% of the whole area lang kasi ang deperensya from the factory stock tires ang dapat ipapalt. Mahirap mag compute kung dalawa ang babasehan.

Sana may makatulong dito sa tanong ko.

Salamat in advance.

*sir Grayfox, yon din ang target kong ipapalit na tire specs kung 165/60 R15 ang stock tires ang babasehan. Pero kung 155/70 R14 ang babasehan na stock tires, ang best option nya ay yong 175/55 R15 na tire specs. Kaya importante malaman kung ayon talaga sa dalawa ang specs ng stock tires bago mo malaman kung ano talaga ang best option.

Anyway, kung maganda ang improvement ng driving experience mo at sa performance ng unit mo baka yon na rin ang kukunin ko. Pwede bang malaman kung anong brand and model ng tires mo at saka kung pwede pasama na rin yong specs ng rims na pinalit mo at kung ano rin yong brand at model.

Maraming Salamat in advance.

Hi All,

Una sa lahat, thanks for all your contributions sa thread na ito, positive & negative man, it helped a lot na piliin ko pa rin ang Chevrolet Spark.
My sister & I are planning to get this car, naghahanap lng kmi ng bank na magbibigay ng magandang auto-loan.

Just one quick question lang, not sure If I missed it while reading thru the whole thread. For SPARK 1.0 LS AT model po ba may headrest ung backseat?
Thanks in advance.

To RyanRocks,

Its been sometime since my last post here.
I have a 1.2MT Red Spark. Its been with us for almost 2 years now.
I just made a fuel test run....just a few hours back......
65km/h average speed (1600rpm)
aircon is at 1
2 people onboard
same gasoline station for filling up.
same pump.
24.027Km/liter.
I just tested it 30minutes ago.
Its 97percent pure highway driving.
This is approximately the same fuel consumption I had
in my testing about 1 year ago.
If you the do a lot of highways or open roads driving...
the fuel consumption might give you something to be cheerful about.

Hope this can help.

priority ko ay fuel efficiency.. ok na sana ako sa 1.0MT kaso baka mahirapan ito kapag uphill.

one addition....
my unit is close to 30000 kms.
Almost 2 years with us.
AIRCON broke down a week ago...
compressor problem.
I was thinking to myself...this is at least 20,000Php.
Chevrolet Quezon Ave replaced it.
I DID NOT PAY A SINGLE CENT.
