It's not a mirage: The Chevy Spark is now the cheapest car in America
You need something to get you from A to B quickly and without spending a fortune.

The 2021 Chevrolet Spark is the most affordable vehicle available in America, regardless of whether you need an auto or a stick-shift transmission in your compact. In the 2021 model year, the Golden Bow Tie small hatchback will be the only new vehicle that you can purchase for less than $15,000

The Chevy Spark starts at $14,395 (with a destination fee), which is less than the Mitsubishi Mirage, the previous cheapest car on the market. For the 2021 model year, the Japanese hatchback will get a refresh, with a sticker price of $15,565.

The subcompact category has a lower starting price than the others on the market. These include the redesigned 2021 Nissan Versa (from $15,855), 2021 Hyundai Accent (16,390), 2020 Kia Rio (16,815).

These prices are applicable to manual transmission models. These cars will be more expensive if you go for an auto transmission, as they lack the Rio standard with the automatic transmission. The automatic Spark is priced at $15,495, while the Mirage ES CVT (the cheapest option) can be purchased for $16,590.

CarsDirect provided the analysis of prices. The Spark is listed in the slowest selling used car during the coronavirus pandemic. The new Spark is a great option for people who require basic mobility.

Subcompacts continue to fall with the rise of crossovers and SUVs. All cars, including the Toyota Yaris and Honda Fit, have been discontinued.
