My fiancee and I were in Miami, FL for a friend's wedding and had a Chevrolet Spark as our rental. My guess is between 2013 and 2014.
This car is pretty tiny by US standards, certainly on the exterior dimensions.
The interior is all plastic, so much plastic. The doors are very thin and have little interior cladding, the instrument cluster is very small and compact, and the infotainment system has some of the silliest menu screens ever (like telling you you're on Bluetooth for the music you're playing with a Bluetooth connected phone and includes a large Bluetooth graphic along with a large phone graphic which take up enormous real-estate for no good reason).
Engine wise the pickup is okay but nothing to write home about. When you floor it it can get out of its own way otherwise it is very much just a car with no thrills.
The handling was okay, you can late brake while taking an aggressive left at 40-30 MPH, shave off lots of speed, and in no way be scared or feel unstable. So, it has that going for it.
One key point of complaint was that the boot and the hatch for it were very small and the privacy cover was terribly flimsy and ill fitting. Don't look to this car for good trim or fit and finish.
I'd conclude by calling it cheap and adequate for A to B driving.
