Chevrolet Sprint

Very few drivers remember the Sprint and there’s a good reason for that. Initially produced by Suzuki and called Citrus, the car was a supermini compact with a miniature three-cylinder engine, 1.0 liters of displacement, and 48 HP on tap. There’s not much to write home about (via TAC).

The interesting thing about the whole Chevrolet-Suzuki deal was that the US manufacturer started investing in rebranding small compacts and trading know-how with foreign companies. Eventually, Chevrolet introduced the Sprint, which was somewhat of a hot hatch, and called it the Sprint Turbo. Under the hood was a 73 hp turbocharged engine. Since the weight of the car was just 1600 pounds, it had a hint of performance.
