m1ckDELTA 5 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Compare pics here: http://cararac.com/comparison/chevrolet-spark-opel-agila.html Chevy seems tooled up for a major change in power plants http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/04/16/g-m-enters-the-3-cylinder-engine-arms-race/?_php=true&_type=blogs&_r=0 But the best evidence for a big change in power plant is here: http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2013/08/09/gms-got-new-1-liter-3-cylinder-engine-should-care/ The 2015 Spark could be a game changer for city cars in general. Some other related news of interest: http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/04/15/rivals-in-the-showroom-ford-and-g-m-will-make-transmissions-jointly/ So, the CVT seems to be a step in this direction.

stevesparky 20 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Thanks Good Info. They sure both look about the same. I can remember renting a Geo Metro w/ 3 cylinder engine. Seemed OK. Remember the Geo Metro Convertible? Wouldn't it be great if they ever made the Spark in a Vert? Goldfish 1 Link to post Share on other sites
WaltK 305 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 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. Link to post Share on other sites

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? Link to post Share on other sites
