    Prices start at € 10.595/USD $ 11403 with a 1.0 3 cylinder 75 hp no automatic available in Eu
    Least you know it will be semi decent if it's done by Opel.

    Good that they changed the those huge ridiculous headlights.

    i dont think Opel designed it, I believe its Daewoo. The Spark in America for the 2015MY has a 1.2 4 banger with either a manual or jayco cvt. GM isnt releasing any news on the 2016 to us yet. They only sent us teasers
    I love everything about Mitsubishi!!!!

    Correct: built in S. Korea, as was the previous one.

    Compared to the new Opel Karl, the Spark has slightly different body lines/accents, headlights, fascia, etc.

    Jalopnik just posted that the U.S. version will have a 1.4L engine (up from 1.2) making 98 hp (up from 82). 40 mpg US highway with the CVT.

    The car sells surprisingly well in the States - beats the Mirage every month (see our comparison to Mirage sales here). Probably a lot of sales to rental fleets, but the Mirage is also sold into fleets.

    Only the rear doors are similar as the previous one and diffrent then the karl. It will have a 1.4 ecotec 100 hp.

    In the N-A this can be a hit because Chevy is a big brand and some americans will only buy american cars, In Europe it has to compete with a lot of other a segment cars and they will have better equipment and way better fuel economy then the Karl.

    Btw: I like this Lime Green colour Mitsubishi should have offered a colour similar like this.

    looks not too bad. I agree, people that spot a Mirage in the wild could now end up buying a Spark instead.

    I still wonder how they achieve the estimated 40 MPG with a 1.4L engine and respecting the test regulations.

    Provided they fixed the oil burning problem, I think many might decide for the Spark instead of the Mirage now.
