2008 Chevrolet Impala Review
2008 Chevrolet Impala

The Chevrolet Impala was originally introduced as a premium trim level with a sporty, upscale attitude in 1958. Since then, it has gone through a series of extinctions and reincarnations. Today, the 2008 Chevrolet Impala retains some of its original upmarket flare while providing a sensible rendering of the large family sedan. Now available in LS, LT, 2LT, LTZ, and SS trim levels, the 2008 Impala is powered by either a 3.5 Liter V6, a 3.9 Liter V6, or a 5.3 Liter V8 engine with a standard 4-speed transmission.

With a front bench seat, up to 6 passengers can pile into the Impala, which offers standard 4-wheel independent suspension for a smooth, touring car ride. In addition, the new Impala is equipped with 4-wheel power discs, for safe stopping. In its interior, the Impala stands up to the finer near-luxury sedans with wood-like texturing on the door panels and elsewhere, controls for the sound system at your fingertips, child-proof locks on the rear doors, and sufficient power-assisted features, like door locks, and trunk release, to make driving less of an effort. Comfort is yours in the new Impala due to its rich cloth seats, supportive seats, and air conditioning.

Chevrolet has an unrelenting attitude toward safety and 2008 is a banner year to proclaim that the Impala has earned the coveted five-star frontal crash test rating. In addition, experience the sure-footed control you get with all-speed traction control, reducing the risk of spinouts and loss of traction on acceleration. As expected, you are safe and sound in the protective envelope of driver and front passenger frontal collision airbags, and rear passenger side impact curtain airbags. No Impala would be complete without an outstanding acoustic environment, produced by an AM/FM stereo with 6 speakers, a CD player, and MP3 player.

You can order your 2008 Chevrolet Impala SS with Metallic paint covered side moldings, front air dam, and halogen headlights, to light up the side show. The ride and steering of the 2008 Impala is smooth and deliberate, with 18 mpg city, 28 mpg highway, the Impala should be your choice for family transportation.
