The Chevy Spark returns for 2026 as a fun, sporty, and affordable electric crossover with FWD and 220 mile of range.

Yep starting at less than $12,000 US in China, I can’t imagine a sub-20K MSRP would be entirely out of the question

    I have a Chevy Bolt with identical range and can confirm that range is halved in Winter. Still no big deal in urban areas. My 1-hour commute to the other side of the city is only 8 miles. I just charge the car every-other week for an hour. Ezpz.

      From what I’m reading the Chevy bolt does not have a heat pump and it seems that most of your commute is just standing still in traffic.

      In these conditions it makes sense that range goes down in winter but for longer drive with a more recent EV it’s not really an issue anymore.

      I barely noticed any difference in range in winter compared to summer with my EV. I have to admit though that winters are quite mild here.

      8 miles in one hour? At that point you could almost bike if it wasn’t freezing. You could bike at a steady 10mph, though it would take nearly an hour.
