    dealing with cold weather

    The manual says that you should keep it plugged in when it is below 32 degrees. This isn't always possible or convenient. What is the reasoning behind this? Normally, I only drive about 20 miles a day. I don't want to cycle the batteries multiple times per day. Ideally, I could go 3 or so...

    Aftermarket speakers?

    Aftermarket speakers?

    bike carrier

    Has anyone come up with a good solution for carrying bikes with a Spark EV? It seems like a great way to make more chargers convenient (part at a charger then ride to nearby stuff to do. I thought about this 1-1/4" tow hitch and bike carrier, but I'm betting that the EV is different enough...

    new spark ev owner in Alabama

    I'm the happy new owner of a Spark EV 2LT. I live in AL, so my local dealers don't sell it. I purchased mine from San Jose and had it shipped. I couldn't test drive it so had to base the purchase completely on YouTube videos and online reviews. I got to drive one for the first time when I...
