Spark comes with beige interior with leather and fabric seats. Centrally placed meter console and MP3 player add its internal beauty. GM has highly optimised the space utilisation and looked into tinny features which other competitors like maruti, hyundai doesnt provide for thos money. like, shopping hook, vanity mirror, four door power windows, four speaker, music player with USB.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance has to be commentable. It comes with one liter four cylinder engine. Though its having 3 cc less than the new wagon-r, it is unmatchable with the perfomance of SOHC engine of spark. It doesnt feel any power drop, tremendous response, very smooth and silent Bharat VI engine, easy gear shift, it having notch free gear box, Gear lever is hacving a cute looks. Fuel economy depends on how we use our car, has i am using it economically i am getting a mileage arround 18 l/km under normal traffic conditions.
Ride Quality & Handling Very smooth, feels like a car of good luxury, rear suspension is great when compared to ALTO ans Santo.
Final Words Spark doesnt have competitor. You cant compare other car of the same segment with spark. Some of the comments i have seen its costly, but I rally its not. If the same 1.0 liter car with all the features of spark if any one is owning it will much costly.
