2003 Chevrolet Spark SE review from Indonesia

"A car for traffic jams =)"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

None.

General comments?

This car is fast enough to keep up with other small cars, despite the 0.8 engine.

Ride is good for 120 km/h, more than that, the car starts to act strange =) top speed is around 150kmh though, but I can't imagine what the handling would be like on that speed. On normal cruising speeds (60km/h) it's handling is good enough, significant body roll is there though, just don't take those corners too hard..

Fuel consumption isn't as low as I'd expect, I could only make around 13km/liter.

Air Conditioning is good, it'd kept me comfortable even when the outside air is 35 degrees Celsius.

Seats aren't the most comfortable around, and the foot space on the rear seats is really small. The lack of headrests on the rear seats doesn't help either.

Boot space is pathetic. To do a decent monthly shopping you'd really take good use of the folding rear seats.

The car came standard with a 6-CD changer and 4 speakers. But what the car really needs is sound reduction (?), noise from the outside gets in too easily.

Overall, the small size makes it a dream car for traffic jams =)
