Frankfurt Motor Show 2013: Chevrolet launches Spark Bubble

Chevrolet has unveiled a new special edition of the Spark at the Frankfurt Motor Show but that's the only highlight in what is a quiet show for the American brand. The Spark Bubble gets sporty bumpers, side mouldings and 15-inch white alloy wheels along with white or pink Bubble decals on the front wings.

Inside, the centre console has been styled to match the exterior colour pattern while the seats are made of leatherette.

All Spark models get a redesigned instrument cluster plus a new radio with Bluetooth connectivity as standard on most trim levels. There is also a CD player and USB and aux-in jacks. For audio streaming and hands-free calling, steering wheel controls can be used.

Chevrolet will also unveil a front wheel drive version of the 1.4 turbocharged petrol Trax. On sale this autumn it has a six-speed manual gearbox and accelerates from 0-62mph in 9.5 seconds. Claimed fuel consumption is 47.1mpg with start/stop with emissions of 139g/km.
