The two companies are working together on an all-electric car for the Indian market and it was revealed at the New Delhi Auto Show this week. Sadly, the look of the car is a big bag of yawn.<\/p>\n<p>The car in question is the Chevrolet e-Spark, and it would be India&#8217;s first four-door electric vehicle. The outside is simply the standard Indian-spec Spark, but Reva&#8217;s EV powertrain sits underhood. Detailed information on this car is scarce, but we hear <a href=\"http:\/\/bikencar.com\/2010\/01\/chevrolet-showcases-e-spark-electric-at-the-auto-expo\/\">it will have<\/a> both regular drive and boost modes as well as regenerative brakes. There might also be an option to get the car with <a href=\"http:\/\/indianautosblog.com\/2009\/10\/gm-will-sell-not-hundreds-but-thousands-of-electric-chevrolet-sparks\">either lead acid or lithium-ion batteries<\/a>.
