    Climate Control Fan Speed Buggy

    Just curious, do you have the Auto Defog set to 'ON' under the Climate and Air Quality Menu? I think that will turn on the heat and ramp up the fan speed whenever the computer think you might need it.

    Just Leased a 2016 Spark EV LT2

    The main question is can you say under the 10k mileage cap. We only drive about 600 miles a month so it was easy for us to save the $10 a month. Deciding on your 12K plans is just what you want your initial out-of-pocket to be, in the end you total payments are very close to the same...

    Considering option to purchase

    Sorry to tell you that the leasing company already got the federal ($7500) tax credit when they bought the car that they then leased to you. I have not seen many used Sparks selling but seeing that new ones are going (locally here in Oregon) for under $20,000 (and if you buy you do get the...

    AC Condensation

    Hi all, Was quite warm here in Beaverton OR over the weekend(I would say a 100 is warm anywhere). I must say the AC worked brilliantly, especially liked how I could stay in the car waiting for the wife with out feeling guilty about idling. One problem did pop up however, the passenger side...

    New Spark EV pricing too low?

    For a purchase the registered owner is the only one who can get the $7500 tax credit (for leases the leasing company gets it) Wentworth Chevy has it spelled out pretty clearly...

    Don't want to advertise for them but a Portland Chevy dealer has a dozen Spark EV's for $6500 off MSRP. Brings the price to $19,885 for 2LT and $19,495 for their cheapest 1LT. After Fed tax credit you could have a Spark for around $12,000. The $100-110/month leases are also available if so...

    Climate Control Issue

    Hi all, Just wondering if this happens to anyone else. We have the heater on to warm up the interior while it is still plugged in. After starting the drive I push the 'Temp' button to just run the fan. Climate power drops from 50-70% to 7%. Then a few minutes later the power goes back up to...

    Please share your experiences with Portland area dealerships

    Hi, We bought from Carr Chevy in Beaverton back in Apr when they had the $110 lease deal. We walked in, went for test drive, picked color and then it was a bit over 30 minutes of paperwork. It was a bit tedious but I do not think they could have made it much better. They talked with us and...

    Water Depth

    Hey all, Boy have we had some rain in Portland lately. On the way home yesterday one part of the road had about 12 inches of water, my X5 made it fine but it made me think about our Spark EV. I do not see anything in the manual about what depth of water you can traverse. Did not see anything...

    My On-Star App just updated the car status for the first time in weeks. They might have fixed it

    What range do you show?

    Hi all, Just passed 5 month with our Spark EV and loving it. Pretty surprised with the range we are getting. Granted we have had a good deal of time with mild weather where no climate control beyond the fan is needed. Even with the A/C on it still does pretty good. Very often it shows 100+...

    Combo Fast chargers in Portland, Or area?

    PGE on Salmon between 1st and 2nd has just put in 4 DC Fast Chargers that have the CHAdeMO and DC Combo connectors (relocated 'Electric Ave from Portland State Univ) I think they are the only DC Combo chargers around. They are free for the time being but you do pay for parking meters. I do...

    Next batch of Sparks?

    Well 4 people are going to be happy. Driving down from Olympia, WA on Friday afternoon I saw a truck heading towards Oregon with 4 Spark EV's. Red, White, Blue and that indescribable green. We have had ours since mid April and absolutely love our Spark EV.
