2017 Chevrolet Impala
In 2017, the Chevrolet Impala continued to uphold its reputation as a comfortable, spacious, and reliable full-size sedan. With its blend of modern technology, impressive safety features, and a comfortable ride, the 2017 Impala appealed to those seeking a practical and family-friendly vehicle without compromising on style. Whether you were navigating city streets or embarking on long highway journeys, the 2017 Impala aimed to provide a smooth and enjoyable driving experience.
Overview:
The Chevy Impala is offered in 5 trim levels for the 2017 model year:
- 1LS
- 1LT
- Premier 2LZ
- CNG 2FL
- CNG 3LT
Performance and Fuel Economy
Guess which of the two engine configurations Chevy offers for the Impala, with 4 or 6 cylinders, provides a more satisfying driving experience. The standard engine in the base model is a 2.5-liter inline-4 that produces 196 horsepower. This engine is paired with a 6-speed automated transmission, and both components provide power to the front wheels. This is the commoner’s version of the Impala, which has more pulling power at medium speeds than it does off the line. Active noise cancellation quells its 4-cylinder bangs. Going from 30 miles per hour to 60 miles per hour is the sort of powertrain that wishes it had more ratios, more torque, and more of everything. It revs beautifully up to 6,500 revolutions per minute, but it doesn’t pick up speed as quickly as its badge suggests.
Design
The dynamic and contemporary external design of the 2017 Impala creates checks that the inside is delighted to pay. The smooth dual-cowl dashboard flows naturally into the door panels, providing a wraparound look that has recently been the signature of GM. This design has grown more popular in newer GM vehicles.
MyLink
The MyLink touchscreen, which measures 8 inches and can be used for music, navigation, and phone operations, brings everything together thanks to its sharp, high-resolution visuals and user-friendly interface. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity are both included as standard features, and both are excellent for reducing the likelihood that a driver would get distracted by their phone. Compared to LS’s standard configuration, this is a good improvement. We would ask for touch inputs to have faster and more predictable reactions, as well as for updated materials to replace a few pieces of the center console made of weak plastic.
Comfort and Ride
According to the data on the specifications sheet, the Impala had a wheelbase of 111.7 inches and a length measuring 201.3 inches. That is much larger than three-row SUVs like the Kia Sorento, but it is not significantly larger than vehicles like the Volkswagen Passat or the Toyota Avalon. The inside of the Impala provides enough space for four persons, and there is even room for five if necessary. There is a significant amount of leg space in the front seats, but there is a bit of a squeeze in the rear seats.
When you open the wide and tall doors, you’ll find that the finely contoured seats in the Impala V-6 are just a knee-bend away. There are at least five seats specified for each model in the lineup, but this is primarily because seat heating and ventilation are available as add-ons—only the most basic seats are made of cloth. In contrast, the seats in the mid-grade trim combine synthetic leather and cloth. In addition to having a lumbar adjustment, the leather Premier seats provide a more comfortable feel than the fabric or vinyl seats.
Safety Features
The 2017 Chevy Impala comes standard with many advanced safety features, including antilock brakes, a comprehensive airbag system, traction control, and stability management. These features are among the best in the industry. In addition, OnStar comes standard on the Impala and offers various services like automatic collision notification and aid in locating a stolen car. The NHTSA has awarded the Chevrolet Impala a perfect score of five stars for its safety.
