I had heard rumors of good deals on Nissan Leafs at their end of leases in terms of extensions of the lease or purchasing far below to amount stated on their lease contracts. What is being offered for Spark Ev's at end of the lease? Thanks

Is the leasing company giving you any options to continue the lease or for you to buy your Spark Ev after lease end?

The purpose of this thread is put as many videos of the Spark Ev exhibiting its torqueness. Please post any videos you find that show it. Passing ability: https://www.facebook.com/rendanny/videos/10153929883370999/ Playing with a Camaro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkT8rZj8YH0

Given that 2012 Leafs that retailed for over $30,000 can now be bought for $9500.00 you can pretty much bet that the Spark EV will be offered to you for less than the residual value listed on its lease papers. My neighbor and I believe that we can probably buy our Spark Ev's for under...

The only thing I would add is to use cruise control while on D mode as much as possible. L mode all other times and glide as much as possible ( feather gas pedal so 0 kW used) Any possibility of being able to charge at your midpoint destination? That would help.

Thanks nikwax. I doubt my accountant or I would have seen this. Here's the link on article: http://www.pluginamerica.org/drivers-seat/happy-ev-legislative-new-year

dJwreck, Congrats on your new Spark EV. The first ride home is definitely thrilling. By chance were there any 2015's or hint when the 2016's would arrive?

Weather. Generally speaking, the colder it is, the less efficient EV's become. I used to average in the high 80's 90's miles range in the summer, now with the mild winters of Central Valley California I only get 70's miles for range. I believe that is why other posters are being more...

Last night I got 41 miles increase for 8 hours of charging at 12 amps: roughly 5 miles per hour. In the summer, I get roughly 6 miles per hour charge. When charging at 8 amps I get aprox 2-3 mph charged. Haven't done it for awhile, but it was significantly slower for sure. According to...

Bryce is correct. I came home and saw that my wife's Spark Ev had the trunk wide open and the trunk light was off! I shut the hatch re opened and the light came on. I then put in the extension cord with it sticking out the back, shut the hatch and the light went off within 12 minutes time...

Ask for the GM service bulletin PI1382 fix. http://sparkev.blogspot.com/2015/09/solution-problem-with-dc-fast-charge.html I wouldn't want to be stuck on a L2 when a DCFC is available but doesn't work on your Spark EV.

Found that you just have to pry the light cover off with a screw driver Here are instructions for a Camaro but its the same thing for the Spark, watch out, that lightbulb is HOT! http://www.paulstravelpictures.com/GM-Chevrolet-Camaro-Trunk-Light-Bulb-Replacement-Guide/

6938 miles 144 mpge according to Onstar app. Man, some of you guys are super hypermilers! Winter is setting in and my mpge average is going down.

After 5 minutes cabin lights went off but trunk light stayed on :( The padlock to rim does work well.. just want the EVSE out of view. Spark EV Owner's manual...

Will try it thanks!!! Much appreciated. As for cracking the window, it's starting to rain now and I also didn't want to tempt anyone with taking the EVSE itself. I heard it's several hundred dollars to replace.

I would like to secure my Evse in the trunk while charging in public, the 12g extension cord used to run power to the Evse along with the Evse cord keep the hatch from closing enough to turn off the trunk light. The hatch can latch enough to lock, but not enough to turn off the light. I...
