If they can make the CVT work ... it'd be excellent for a city car. I drove a Versa that seemed to get about 34 in town driven moderately. Other than in initial surge, which seemed like someone giving it gas and letting the clutch out, I could acellerate and drive around town all day and not go above 2000RPM. That really helps.
CVTs still have torque converters right? I remember people were complaining that the Ford Five Hundred CVT didn't have a lock up torque converter.
Back to the Spark - I'm starting to see a lot of these around. Really surprising how well they are selling ... (despite poor sales figures).
I spoke to two local dealers. One said that they couldn't get rid of the spark they had, and another one says every one they get in sells about instantly.
Granted, the one that said they can't get rid of theirs keeps pushing EVERYONE on that lot towards used Impalas ... even if they are going to look at a Cruze Eco.
