2020 Chevrolet Impala Review
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.
Which Impala does Edmunds recommend?
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.

we bought ours in july 21 2019, AND I LOVE IT! everything works perfectly, stylish interior and exterior. if ur in the market for a large sedan... THIS IS THE ONE!. its absolutely the best vehilce we've ever owned! we got leather on the inside and its a DREAM TO DRIVE! i totally recommend the impala, you wont regret it. it was this or a chrysler 300. im so glad we got this car! its a wonderful vehilce with loads of style! absolutely love it!
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 doesn’t weigh that much 3500lbs. If I had to critique the car for the money I spent. (I did not pay $39K, I got it for almost $10K off with 15 miles) so yeah NEW. I would say helper screen in the cockpit is a little outdated now seeing the design came out in 2014. I get great MPG with so much Power when ever I need it. I had Zero Issues in the snow and live in the second hilliest City in the country here in the NE. Love the Chevy MYlink App for my Tablet and phone. To start the car and check various things like Tire Pressure, Mileage, Score Card so much more. I love the 4G LTE Built in it is more powerful that my phones 4G and I can connect up to 8 devices. Love Love Love Google Maps and Waze on Android Auto. And using just my voice without pushing a button with OK Google. Or Hey Siri for Apples Car Play. I know this is the last year and that really breaks my heart. Hyundai Group is knocking Vehicles out of the park and GM and Ford and soon Chrysler will all have NO sedans. The New Impala and Impala Wagon would of been a great turn around as a solid choice with or without body cladding on the wagon. But they closed the doors. Impala we will miss you. This is without a doubt the BEST from Chevrolet for it’s large sedan.
When I think impala I think big boat grandma car but the truth is grandma could have beat most of us over the finish line. Not on purpose but I’ve owned three impalas now and I loved each and everyone. They are comfortable and have all the power you need. If your smart enough to buy the V8 model you won’t regret it!
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.

Chevrolet Impala vs. the competition
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.
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.
