2014-2016 Chevrolet Spark Electric
Compact Hatchback
This four-person, five-door electric hatchback makes for an interesting way to be eco friendly. It has a small size that is urban-friendly, and the instant power of the electric motor makes this the preferred performance model compared to its gas-powered counterpart. The all-electric powertrain is rated at the equivalent of 119 mpg, and the Spark EV can go up to 82 miles on a charge. Electric cars are often eligible for tax incentives that lower the final price.

Child Seat Anchors (LATCH) Ease of Use
Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH) is a system of attachment hardware for child restraints. Although child restrainst can be installed properly by using vehicle safety belts, LATCH is intended to make the correct installation easier.
The LATCH ratings are an indicator of how easy it is to achieve a correct, tight installation of a child restraint in a given vehicle when using the dedicated child restraint attachment hardware. As long as a restraint is properly installed, the LATCH rating doesn’t have any bearing on safety.
