SCOOP: This is the All-New 2014 Chevrolet Impala Sedan
If you take a look at Chevrolet's North American passenger car range, there's one model that stands out like a sore thumb and that's none other than the Impala.
The full-size sedan, which was presented in its current form in 2005 but has its roots in the 1999 model, may be a retiree's rental delight, but General Motors seems to be past that phase and is finally readying a major overhaul for the series.
The new Impala, spied here in camouflage during testing, has nothing in common with the current Impala. Instead, it shares its lengthened Epsilon II platform and mechanical hardware with the soon to be released 2013 Cadillac XTS.
And like the XTS, the new Impala will be offered with both front- and all-wheel-drive, which will be a first for the Chevrolet sedan.
Engine options will surely include GM's 3.6-liter V6 with direct-injection and close to 320-horsepower, while the newly revealed 2.0-liter turbocharged four with 270-horses on the Cadillac ATS is a likely candidate for a mid-trim model. We also expect to see a version of the Impala fitted with GM's e-assist mild-hybrid technology.
