continuing the trend and jumping in the query...

Which is of these two is better Chevy Spark v/s Maruti A-Star.

Only city driven by lady and senior citizen to be converted in to the CNG from day 1.

How tall are the drivers?
I checked out the A-star yesterday. The seat is very low and certainly would be a problem for a senior. I myself suffered from a slipped disc earlier and my back isn't too strong even now. If the driver is on the shorter side, it doesn't provide a decent road view. The Spark is better on those two points. However, the A-star is technically a better car. The economy for the petrol version is superb as it is and I'm not sure you're into overkill by going for this engine with a CNG kit.
The Spark IMO is nearing EOL but is a fun car.
Why don't you consider the WagonR Duo?
 
+1 Wagon R
Good for tall people, spacious, great visibility and its a Maruti. Its also Maruti's second best seller after the Alto and has great resale value. Doesn't feel cramped due to height, although it has a good amount of body roll at high speeds :no:, but in the city that's not a problem.

Good for short people too actually. Gives a very good view of the road almost like the evergreen Omni. By the way, when you consider A-star and WagonR, you should also seriously consider the Estilo. It has the engine of the A-star, a superb gear shift and has the driver seat advantage of the WagonR. The boot space too is similar to the WagonR and far better than other cars in the class.
The only negative about WR and Estilo is the bench type rear seat.
 
chevy spark.
3 year maintenance free
Tata after sale service is horrible. If u donot like it looks go for Astar or alto
