It’s the first use of the Spark name in Europe but it has been used in other markets – such as India – for earlier versions of the GM Daewoo-designed Matiz.


The redesigned Spark will be sold in the USA, India and other core markets. Engines are 1.0 and 1.2-litre petrol units.


Chevrolet will also show its new Cruze range in Geneva – the four-door saloon line was unveiled in Paris last October and UK sales begin in July 2009.


UK market Cruze models will come with 1.6- or 1.8-litre petrol engines, and a two-litre diesel.
