But the best evidence for a big change in power plant is here:

The 2015 Spark could be a game changer for city cars in general.

So, the CVT seems to be a step in this direction.

The picture of the Opel, looks like the "Spark" in disguise, in the spy photos. It's the door handles that give it away. Cosmetically, the same car, a 2LT, with a modified nose, and no roof rails.

Precisely. So why the headlines about the shots being of a 2015 Spark?
