Does a 2014 Chevy Spark have cruise control?
It can, but only on certain trims and configurations. The 2014 Spark did not come with cruise control as standard equipment; it was available mainly on LT models equipped with an automatic transmission and the optional Convenience Package. If you have the base LS with a manual gearbox, you likely do not have cruise control.
To understand whether a specific 2014 Spark has cruise control, it helps to know which trims and options offered it, how to check the controls in the car, and how to verify the original factory equipment using the vehicle’s documentation or VIN. This article breaks down the availability, how to confirm it on your car, and what to do if you’re considering adding it.
Availability by trim and transmission
The following overview reflects the typical US-spec configuration for 2014 Spark models, focusing on trims and the transmission that influence cruise control availability.
- Spark LS (base) with manual transmission: no cruise control from the factory.
- Spark LT with automatic transmission (4-speed): cruise control was available if the car was equipped with the Convenience Package or equivalent option group.
- Spark LT with manual transmission: cruise control was not typically offered as a factory option.
Note: Availability can vary by market and model year refinements. If your Spark is from a non-U.S. market or has been modified, check the exact option codes or build sheet for confirmation.
How to confirm on your vehicle
Use these steps to verify whether a given 2014 Spark has cruise control installed or not.
- Inspect the steering-wheel area and left stalk: presence of a SET/RES switch or a dedicated cruise control button/stalk usually indicates the system is installed.
- Look for steering-wheel controls that include a “CRUISE,” “SET,” or “RES” function, or a cruise control stalk near the steering column.
- Check the owner’s manual or the window sticker/build sheet (RPO codes) to see if the Convenience Package or a cruise-control option was included.
- If in doubt, provide the VIN to a GM dealer, who can pull the original build data and confirm whether cruise control was installed.
Even if your Spark lacks cruise control, it can often be installed as an aftermarket accessory. However, installation quality and compatibility should be verified by a qualified technician.
Summary
For the 2014 Chevy Spark, cruise control was not standard and was generally reserved for LT models with automatic transmission when equipped with the appropriate option package. Base LS models with a manual transmission typically did not include cruise control. To determine definitively whether a specific car has cruise control, check the steering controls, refer to the build sheet or window sticker, and consult a dealer with the VIN. If needed, an authorized installer can add an aftermarket solution, though compatibility and safety should be considered.
