Chevy's gas variant promises much but will customers sacrifice pick-up for a marginal rise in mileage?
Chevrolet's just added to the crowd in the mini-car segment with a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) version of its popular Spark. While the company is confident of sales, others are not so sure.
Spark LPG, which will compete with Maruti's Wagon R and Hyundai's Santro, the two other LPG small cars in the market, offers an impressive three-year warranty. It's equipped with a "superior" sequential injection-type LPG kit, introduces new beige interiors based on customer feedback and can switch from petrol to LPG at the press of a button.
But auto experts wonder if consumers will warm up to these advantages.
