Year to Year Changes


2001 Chevrolet Impala: GM's OnStar system became standard in the LS sedan and optional in the base model. Otherwise, no change was evident apart from a new emergency inside trunk release. Although Impala ranks as Chevrolet's "traditional" midsize model, the less-costly Malibu sells far better.
2002 Chevrolet Impala: For 2002, the base model added dual-zone climate controls and a cassette player as standard equipment.
2003 Chevrolet Impala: Driver-side airbag and GM's OnStar assistance system move from standard equipment to options on the LS, while the base Impala adds remote keyless entry. Newly available for both is XM satellite radio with 100-channel digital receiver.
2004 Chevrolet Impala: A supercharged version of the Impala, the SS, is new for '04. It comes with a supercharged 240-hp 3.8-liter V6, sport suspension tuning, and 17 inch wheels.
2005 Chevrolet Impala: Standard OnStar assistance tops the short list of 2005 additions to Impala. The SS also includes 17-inch wheels vs. other models' 16s; it offers chrome-finished 17s as a new option. Also new for SS are minor trim changes outside and different front headrests. SS and LS have front bucket seats and carry five passengers, though LS now offers a front bench seat for 6-passenger capacity.
