2014 Chevrolet Impala is a full-size improvement
Filed under: New York Auto Show, Sedan, Chevrolet
General Motors has officially unveiled the 2014 Chevrolet Impala at this year's New York Auto Show. Riding on the same bones as the 2013 Malibu, the next-generation Impala boasts a considerably more attractive exterior with plenty of personality. Borrowing the best elements of design from the GM stable, we see more than a little Camaro and Lacrosse in the sedan's front fascia and stylized hips. Buyers can look forward to either standard 18-inch wheels or a slew of larger options, including massive 20-inch rollers. Under the hood, GM has graced the 2014 Impala with a range efficient direct-injection engines, including a 2.4-liter four-cylinder paired with the automaker's eAssist hybrid system.
With 182 horsepower and 172 pound-feet of torque, the drivetrain falls well short of the 288 horsepower offered up by the Ford Taurus, though it does so while returning significantly better fuel economy. GM Says the four-cylinder Impala will return 35 mpg highway, six mpg better than the full-size Ford.
Those who need a little extra grunt can step up to the company's tried-and-true 3.6-liter V6 with 303 horsepower and 234 lb-ft of torque, and there's also a naturally aspirated 2.5-liter four-cylinder available that produces 195 horsepower, while all three engines are mated to a six-speed automatic gearbox. Keep scrolling for the official press release from Chevrolet, and check our galleries of live and official images while you're at it.Continue reading 2014 Chevrolet Impala is a full-size improvement

GM whiffs again......the guy writing that article must've gotten one free. There is nothing about that car that's worth writing an article about. It's like 99.9% of the cars out there......unimpressive.

The fact that the 3.6 is down to 303hp from that of the 2012 camaro 3.6 DOHC ~320-330 tells me it's likely mated to one of GM usual piece of shit FWD auto's.
They just can't seem to stay away from the slush box junk..
