2021 Best Selling Small City Cars In the United States (All Models Ranked)
The small city car market in the U.S., sometimes referred to as the subcompact or mini-car segment, is notably smaller than in many other regions, like Europe or Asia. American consumers have historically shown a preference for larger vehicles, especially in recent years with the rising popularity of SUVs and crossovers. However, city cars have found a niche, especially in densely populated urban areas where parking is at a premium and the compact size of such vehicles becomes a significant advantage.
The Chevy Spark is one of the few remaining city cars available in the U.S. market. It’s positioned as an affordable entry-level car. Despite its small size, the Spark offers modern features like a touchscreen infotainment system, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto compatibility. Safety features like a rearview camera and available forward-collision warning make it competitive in its segment. Powered by a 1.4L 4-cylinder engine, it offers modest performance suitable for city driving. While not a top-seller in Chevrolet’s lineup, the Spark has consistently outsold many competitors in the city car segment in recent years.
