2020 Chevrolet Impala Review

by the Edmunds Experts

Pros

Smooth, quiet ride
Spacious rear seat and trunk
Capable V6 engine

ConsWhat's new

Large sedans aren't nearly as popular as they used to be. We even thought that Chevrolet would discontinue the Impala after the 2019 model year. Yet somehow the Impala is soldiering on for at least one more year. And even though the number of trim levels and options diminishes for 2020, there's life yet in Chevy's big four-door.

This generation of Impala — introduced in 2014 — has always been a solid choice in the segment, offering a roomy interior, a spacious trunk, smooth acceleration and a ride quality that's plush without being overly soft and floaty. In short, the Impala does exactly what you expect from a large, comfort-oriented sedan.

Less likable is the Impala's ponderous handling and its overly sensitive steering, which gives it a tendency to wander in its lane on the highway. We're also not enamored with the thick front roof pillars that obscure your view around road curves. On the whole, the stay-of-execution 2020 Impala remains a solid pick, but competitors such as the Kia Cadenza and the Toyota Avalon are nicer overall.

Which Impala does Edmunds recommend?

If you're considering the Chevy Impala over the smaller Malibu, chances are you want a comfy cruiser that feels a little special. To that end, skip over the base LT and opt for the Premier, which includes advanced safety features, upgraded headlights and leather. We also think it's worth getting the Premier Convenience package, which costs little and adds a surprising number of desirable luxury features.

Chevrolet Impala models

The 2020 Chevrolet Impala is a full-size sedan available in two trim levels. The LT replaces the discontinued LS as the entry-level Impala. It has many standard features and a pair of option packages. Buyers who want the whole shebang can upgrade to the Premier model, which has two packages that further upgrade its equipment offerings. Both trims utilize a 3.6-liter V6 (305 horsepower, 264 lb-ft of torque) that sends power to the front wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission.

Standard features on the Impala LT include 18-inch wheels, heated mirrors, remote engine start, keyless entry and ignition, dual-zone automatic climate control, rear air vents, a power driver's seat, faux-leather and cloth combination upholstery, a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, an 8-inch touchscreen, and a six-speaker audio system with two USB ports, satellite radio and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto.

The Impala LT also offers two upgrade packages. The Driver Confidence package includes blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert and rear parking sensors. There's also the Convenience package, which brings heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, an auto-dimming rearview mirror and household-style power outlet.

Upgrading to the Premier adds 19-inch wheels, xenon headlights, unique exterior accents, ambient lighting, a power passenger seat, leather upholstery, a wireless smartphone charging pad, a navigation system, and an 11-speaker Bose audio system with a CD player. It also includes the LT's Driver Confidence package, plus heated front seats and the power outlet. A sunroof is available as a stand-alone option.

Feature suites for the Premier include the Premier Convenience package (adds ventilated front seats, a heated and power-adjustable steering wheel, driver-seat memory settings, and auto-dimming rearview and driver-side mirrors) and the Premier Confidence package (includes 20-inch wheels, adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning and lane departure warning).

4/5 stars, Best Car I’ve owned at age 57

Gene978, 05/17/2020

Premier 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 6A)

I bought the One in Red Tint Coat with the Pano Roof. The car was better looking than the Top Midsized Cars I looked at first. Of course the room was awesome I always loved a big car but what sold me is after driving the Accord, new Camry, 2019 Sonata, and a loaded Civic Touring was the ride and how quiet the cabin with double laminated front glass. This car can handle for a big girl and

4/5 stars, Undecided Impala shopper

Premier 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 6A)

Iconic name plate, I've been drawn to it but for some reason I didn't get it. What concerns me though is the thick roof pillars that impaired visibility, to me is a must. I don't like the choice of colors as I believe they're too few. To me a large car should be a dark color, not necessarily black but may be grey metallic. Not a biggy though as the Impala obviously is a great car in

4/5 stars, Last Of The Big Cruisers

Melvin, 06/04/2020

LT 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 6A)

It is a great car. I got what I believe is a good price. I believe it is still over price. Most advance safety features are optional. On most foreign competitors these features are standard.

2017 Chevrolet Impala Expert Rundown

BRYN MACKINNON: I'm Bryn MacKinnon from Edmunds. And this is an Edmunds expert rundown of the 2017 Chevrolet Impala. Back for 2017 essentially unchanged, the Chevy Impala is still a big, comfortable sedan that's certainly worth a closer look. As you'd hope for from a big stately sedan, like the Impala, the ride is good and definitely suited for long highway trips. It isn't a sporty as some rivals, but that's not a deal breaker. The optional V6 engine is the one we'd go with since the standard four cylinder isn't very powerful. And the difference in fuel economy between the two engines is relatively small. One of the most appealing aspects of the Impala is its large interior. You can easily seat four adults in there with room to spare. It also has a big trunk, lots of storage for small items like cell phones, and good available tech like Chevy's MyLink system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The bottom line is the 2017 Chevrolet Impala is an impressive mid-size sedan with a lot to like. There are several strong options in this category. But we recommend keeping the Chevy on your list if you're shopping for something with a lot of space and comfort to go along with it. We also recommend taking a look at the Chrysler 300, the Toyota Avalon, and the Ford Fusion. For more expert rundowns, go to the Edmunds YouTube channel and subscribe.

Chevrolet Impala vs. Chevrolet Malibu

The Chevrolet Malibu is one size class smaller than the Impala. As you might expect, the Malibu has less front and rear legroom, and there's less space in the trunk too. The Impala is driven by a V6, while the Malibu makes do with a four-cylinder engine. In the Malibu's favor are its lower price and more composed handling.

Chevrolet Impala vs. Ford Fusion

This Ford Fusion generation has been on the market since 2013, but Ford has done an admirable job of keeping its midsize sedan up to date. Highlights include composed handling, a nicely trimmed interior, and a diverse powertrain lineup that includes a hybrid and a plug-in hybrid. Like the Malibu, the midsize Fusion is smaller but less expensive than the Impala.

Compare Chevrolet Impala & Ford Fusion features

Chevrolet Impala vs. Toyota Avalon

Looking for a large sedan that's more up-to-date than the Impala? The Toyota Avalon might be the one to get. Recently redesigned, the Avalon is comfortable and genuinely pleasant to drive. There's even a hybrid version that gives up some speed for exceptional fuel economy. The main reason to stick with the Impala is its lower price.

Should I lease or buy a 2020 Chevrolet Impala?

Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
