n the 2014 Impala, Chevrolet’s design and engi neering teams have mated the best features of a full-size sedan with proven and sought-after I technology. They incorporated safety and convenience fea tures in a roomy five-passenger car that somehow retains some of the cachet of earlier Impalas. The 2014, Chevy says, is the 10th generation of the car. It is available in several trim levels and can be ordered with one of three engines: two fours and one six-cylinder. The 305 horsepower 3.6-liter V-6 has an integrated cylinder head/exhaust manifold design that w f l Chevy said saves some 13 pounds per J J f l engine. This engine is expected to get 19 miles per gallon city and 29 out on the highway. A 2.5-liter Ecotec four is rated at 196 horsepower. Its fuel economy numbers are 21 miles per gallon city and 31 mpg high way. The slightly smaller Ecotec 2.4-liter four has GM’s eAssist. The fuel-saving technolo gy, which bowed on Buicks a few years ago, uses a 115-volt lithium-ion battery system plus an electric motor-generator to enable re generative braking. Chevy said this occurs any time the driver’s foot is not pressing on the accelerator. The recaptured energy is used to power the Impala’s electrical sys tem. It also uses power stored in the battery to provide electric power assistance in vari ous driving scenarios. All engines are matched with six-speed automatic transmissions.
