Very nice car sits great sleek design on the LT and LTZ the 4cyl could have more horse power but it is sufficient overall good buy and a nice luxury car for a good price dec 2017,still feel the same but they should have installed a auto stop shut off option

2017 Chevrolet Impala Premier 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 6A)

I have been renting through Hertz 2014 to present the Chevrolet Impala. After many rentals, I decided my next vehicle is definitely going to be this model. And specifically the 2LTZ or Premiere Trims. It is the most comfortable and roomy vehicle I have driven in years. The quality of the materials used are top notch. And a very eye catching design both inside and out. I ended up finally purchasing a 2017 Premiere. Has every available option. And one owner. So happy with this purchase. I traded in my 2001 BMW 325xi, which I bought new 19 years ago. Had 92,500 miles and was basically trouble free. Just was time to get something newer. I’m so glad I did. Michael

Nice car but not really an upgrade from a Malibu

The Impala is worlds better than big American sedans of yesteryear, but unless you need a big back seat, I'd stick with the Malibu, which is more agile, and has a better interior. The front seats of the Impala are comfortable for highway cruising and if you are a fat dude they offer a wide seat pan. But for the rest of us, especially if you are used to a Japanese or Euro sedan, these seats are lousy when cornering, as they offer zero ( and I mean zero) lateral support. You may as well be sitting at a bus stop. Also the design of the front compartment means the space around your body and legs is closed in, and feels less roomy than my 2015 Malibu. The engine is meek at low revs, but nail it and the v6 growls and responds nicely. Plenty of passing power! Just don't do that around a curve because although the suspension can handle it, those flat wide seats cannot, and you'll be slammed against the door. Gas mileage was okay in a few days of mostly highway driving-- low to mid 20's. if you really need a big back seat and trunk in an American sedan, this is a nice vehicle and a good value. Otherwise stick with a Malibu, or ( for my money) a Honda Accord.

I purchased the 2017 Impala lt.I had test driven three other Impalas.The ride was very good.The one that I have is worst riding car that I have ever had.I does not smooth out bumps on streets or highways.I find myself bracing for bumps.All the reviews that read ( including Edmund's ) talked about how smooth the ride was.That is not the case for the one that I have.I am very very disappointed.
