These days we get to see lesser number of large sized sedans, since crossovers have taken over the automotive market with their utility value. The large sedans which have been a signature of elite class car users started facing a slow sale, as they guzzle more power, which is now a global issue as well.
A staff at the Flagstaff Chevrolet dealer revealed the face that in such scenario most of the car enthusiasts and experts predicted that Chevrolet might choose to discontinue the Impala series and its last model we are seeing is the 2019 model. But to everybody’s surprise, the automaker has released the Impala series for the 2020 model year with even more zeal and pride. Though the trim levels have reduced into two, the value it brought back cannot be measured in mere terms of practicality, but in higher ways. So, apart from offering a sprawling cabin, a large trunk, a capable performance, and serene ride, what the 2020 Chevrolet Impala did is restoring individuality in the face of unrecognizable utility.
