GM is getting ready to enter the small car segment with its new 2013 Spark, which made its North American debut at last November’s 2011 LA Auto Show. Today, the Detroit company released pricing ahead of the Spark’s market launch later this year.

The small city car will be available with a single engine option, a 1.2-liter four-cylinder gasoline unit producing 85-horses, and in three trim levels starting at $12,995 (including destination) for the LS that gets 15-inch alloys, 10 airbags and an electronic stability control system with traction control and brake assist.

Moving up to the 1LT, which starts at $14,495, adds several amenities and convenience features such as a 7-inch color touch radio with Chevrolet MyLink and Bluetooth, power door and mirrors, and cruise control.

At the top of the range, you’ll find the 2LT priced at $15,795 and featuring bespoke 15-inch alloy wheels, a host of exterior appearance enhancements and leatherette seats, among other standard items.

If you prefer the ease of the 4-speed automatic transmission, Chevrolet will charge you an additional $925, while the only other available options include an engine block heater for $75 and Black Granite paint for $195.
