Overview

The 2010 Chevrolet Impala is a fullsize sedan that has stood the test of time. Even though it has been over a decade since its release, the Impala is still a popular choice among car buyers today. With its spacious interior, smooth ride quality, and practical features, it continues to be a reliable family car. The Impala competes with other midsize sedans like the Toyota Camry, Dodge Charger, and Nissan Altima. While the Impala may not have as many high-end features as some of its competitors, it still offers a good value for its price.

The 2010 Impala is available in three trims: LS, LT, and LTZ. The LS and LT models come with a 3.5-liter V6 engine that produces 211 horsepower, while the LTZ is equipped with a more powerful 3.9-liter V6 that puts out 230 horsepower. All models come with a four-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive.

The Impala's engines provide good acceleration and power delivery. The LS and LT models have a smooth ride quality and provide a comfortable driving experience. The LTZ's more powerful engine provides an extra kick when needed. The Impala's steering is precise and responsive, making it easy to handle.

The Impala's fuel economy is average for its class, with the LS and LT models achieving an estimated 18 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway, while the LTZ model achieves an estimated 17 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway.

The Impala's interior is spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room for five passengers. The front seats are supportive and provide good visibility. The LS and LT models come with standard cloth upholstery, while the LTZ features leather upholstery. The Impala's standard features include air conditioning, power windows and locks, keyless entry, and an AM/FM/CD stereo system. The LT and LTZ models add more features, including a power driver's seat, remote start, and a Bose audio system.

The Impala's exterior has a classic and timeless design. Its wide and long body gives it a commanding presence on the road. The LS and LT models come with standard 16-inch wheels, while the LTZ features 18-inch wheels.

The Impala has earned high marks for its safety features. All models come with standard antilock brakes, traction control, and six airbags. The LTZ model adds GM's OnStar system, which provides automatic crash notification and emergency assistance.

The 2010 Chevrolet Impala Sedan may be over a decade old, but it still offers a practical and reliable option for car buyers seeking a spacious family car. Its smooth ride quality, spacious interior, and solid safety features make it a popular choice for many drivers today.

Buying Advice

We would recommend getting the mid-range LT trim for the 2010 Chevy Impala. It strikes a good balance between price and practicality while not compromising the comfort that the full size sedan is known for. For the added price, you get 17-inch machined aluminum Wheels, Dual zone manual front air conditioning, and Front Fog/driving lights. We also especially recommend the new Imperial Blue Metallic paint scheme alongside the Cyber Gray Metallic and Summit White paint schemes as they give the sedan a classy look all around.
