The Spark competes in a dwindling class of minicars that have suffered during low gas prices.
It’s only a hatchback, while the Mitsubishi Mirage is offered as a sedan or a hatchback, neither of which have anything going for them other than a low price.
Better choices include the Nissan Versa and Toyota Yaris.
Both are bigger and better built.
The Yaris is more fun to drive, while the Versa doesn’t feel so downmarket.
