2013 Chevrolet Spark Ride and Handling Covington Cars

Here at Art Gamblin Motors, your Covington Car Dealer, we are very pleased to be offering the all new 2013 Chevrolet Spark—a vehicle that offers unparalleled value. The value of the Spark is clearly demonstrated by its tight and responsive handling—allowing it to zip in and out of even the most clustered conditions with ease. The high performance and responsiveness of the Spark’s handling is made possible by some ingenious design innovations and the use of high quality materials. The following all contribute to the Sparks great ride and handling:

Chassis

            Body Frame Integral Construction: The Spark derives much of its confident road feel and driving comfort from its stiff body construction. Its body and frame are combined into a single, cohesive unit called Body Frame Integral (BFI) design. Nearly 53% of the Spark’s body construction is made from high strength steel which improves chassis stiffness, reduces noise vibration and harshness and improves driving dynamics. Additional chassis features include:

-Main underbody rails, running continuously from front to rear, provide strength.

-A 4-mount engine cradle contributes to exceptional NVH characteristics.

– Specially tuned engine and cradle mounts are tailored to the engine’s inherent

torque axis, effectively damping vibration transfer and noise.

Suspension

             Front– The Spark has an independent front suspension and includes:

-MacPherson struts, coil springs and direct-acting 19-mm stabilizer bar.           

            Rear- The Spark rear suspension is a semi-independent compound-crank (torsion beam) design that combines all of the advantages of a conventional torsion beam axle, such as space requirements, with low weight and the ability to be specifically tuned—includes:

-Torsion beam, coil springs, gas-charged

-shock absorbers.

-The space-saving layout of the rear axle helps

-Spark achieve a low center of gravity, enhancing

-Overall agility.

            Steering-All Sparks have power, electric, rack-and-pinion steering—also includes:

-A tight 32.5′ turning diameter promotes excellent handling and maneuverability. For  comparison purposes, the turning diameter for Chevrolet Sonic hatchback is 34.5’ and 35.7’ for Chevrolet Cruze.

-Steering column includes tilt feature.

-No power steering fluid is used and regular

-Maintenance is not required.

            Dinghy Towing Spark-Manual transmission-equipped models can be dinghy towed, on all four wheels, behind a motor home. Automatic transmission-equipped Sparks cannot be dinghy towed.

            Brakes- All Sparks feature ventilated front disc brakes and rear drum brakes. Brake system includes:

-4-wheel ABS

-Standard Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD)

-Brake Assist

-Hill Start Assist

-Standard StabiliTrak Electronic Stability

-Control System

-Traction Control

-Parking brake

– Mechanical cable-driven

-Standard 4-wheel Front Vented Disc,

-Rear Drum Antilock Brakes

-Provide confident stopping ability.

-Standard Electronic Brakeforce

-Distribution (EBD)

-Balances braking forces across all four wheels for

-outstanding stopping performance and more even

-Brake wear.

            Hill Start Assist– When stopped on a steep grade, the Hill Start Assist feature prevents the vehicle from rolling before accelerating–whether facing uphill or down. During the transition when the driver releases the brake pedal, the Hill Holder feature holds the brake pressure (for up

to two seconds) to help ensure the vehicle doesn’t roll.

            Brake Assist Brake Assist senses emergency braking by detecting the speed or force the driver applies to the brake pedal and boosts the power as needed. Under certain conditions, the Brake Assist may activate the ABS more quickly and easily than vehicles without the feature.

            StabiliTrak Electronic Stability Control System– StabiliTrak Electronic Stability Control System uses a yaw sensor, lateral accelerometer and steering angle sensor to continually monitor the driver’s steering input and the vehicle’s actual course. If the vehicle does not follow the driver-intended path, StabiliTrak automatically engages the appropriate braking and traction controls to help the driver get back on the intended course.         

            Traction Control– All Spark models feature a standard all-speed Traction Control system that limits wheel spin when one or both of the drive wheels begin to lose traction. When this happens, the system brakes the spinning wheel(s) and/or reduces power to limit wheel spin.

We invite you to come test drive a new 2013 Chevrolet Spark here with us at Art Gamblin Motors in Enumclaw Washington; and experience something unexpected. We promise that you will enjoy our welcoming pressure-free environment, with plenty of expert sales associates available to handle all of your needs.

Used Car vs New 2013 Chevrolet Spark Bonney Lake Cars

Posted on by

Lately the price of used vehicles has been on the rise. There are multiple reasons for this such as the fact that rental agencies are holding onto their rentals longer, supply shortages and many other factors. When you’re considering purchasing a used vehicle also consider an inexpensive new 2013 Chevrolet Spark here at Art Gamblin Motors, your Bonney lake Dealership. Below are some great reasons to consider a new Spark over a used vehicle:

Interest Rates

The interest rate on a new vehicle is typically less than the rate for t he same time period for a used vehicle. This difference can add up considerably over the course of the loan.

NHTSA New Car Safety Ratings

Starting with 2011 models, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has introduced tougher tests and rigorous new 5-star safety ratings that provide more information about vehicle safety and crash avoidance technologies. Because of the more stringent tests, ratings for 2011 and newer vehicles should not be compared to ratings for 1990-2010 models. This is important because a used vehicle that earned a 5-star rating from just a few years ago may no longer rank five stars under the new, tougher testing standards. This is due in part because the use of high-strength steel has grown substantially in recent years. High-strength steel improves chassis stiffness, reduces noise vibration and improves driving dynamics. An older used car may not have incorporated nearly as much high-strength steel in its construction as the new Spark. Also, few used vehicles can match Spark’s 10 air bags.

Reduced Maintenance

Whenever you purchase a used vehicle, you should expect to spend additional money for service or repairs. A new Spark will be relatively maintenance-free compared to a used vehicle for the several thousand miles. A new vehicle likely won’t need new tires, a battery, exhaust system or brakes during the first few years. In addition, features like long-life spark plugs, timing chain and filled-for life transmission (under normal driving conditions), help make Spark an economical vehicle to own and drive.

Peace of Mind

Used vehicle warranty coverage varies tremendously if indeed there is any coverage at all. If the vehicle is relatively new, there may still be some of the manufacturer’s warranty remaining. If the vehicle is older, it may be sold “as is.” New Chevrolet Spark owners enjoy the peace of mind of having a 3-year/36,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty and 100,000-mile powertrain warranty coverage. In addition, roadside assistance and courtesy transportation may not be offered on a used vehicle purchase.

Cutting Edge Technology

Spark’s MyLink Radio is designed to be integrated with constantly evolving, smartphone technology and is updateable. A used vehicle may not include features such as Bluetooth, a USB port or an auxiliary input jack—features that facilitate hands-free communication and smartphone integration.

We invite you to come test drive a new 2013 Chevrolet Spark here with us at Art Gamblin Motors in Enumclaw Washington; and experience something unexpected. We promise that you will enjoy our welcoming pressure-free environment, with plenty of expert sales associates available to handle all of your needs.
