Chevrolet Spark
For 2019, GM's most affordable car is getting a slight refresh with new colours and a redesigned infotainment system. There’s just one engine available—a 1.4-litre four-cylinder—paired with a five-speed manual or continuously variable automatic transmission. The Spark is the only car in its class to offer a standard 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot (data subscription required).
