This Year's Model Updates:

Now into its third year of production, the Impala soldiers on as Chevrolet's bread-and-butter family sedan. Minor upgrades this year include standard dual-zone air conditioning, an AM/FM stereo and LATCH child seat tether anchors. A leather-accented 60/40 split bench seat will be available later this year on LS models, and two new exterior colors have been added.

Pros:
  • Six-passenger seating availability, good crash test scores, torquey V6 engines.
Cons:
  • So-so styling, wallowy suspension,low-buck interior.

  • Comfort, value, fuel economy - 2002 Chevrolet Impala
    By -

    Impala lives up to its heritage of being a good value, family sedan. The fuel economy is excellent for this size vehicle 21/32. Price wise, I paid over $1,000 less for my Impala V-6 than I could have gotten for a 4 cylinder Accord or 4 cylinder Camry. Test drove all three and Impala by far had the most comfortable ride. So far Im very satisfied.

    I had bought this as a used program car with 10,000 miles approx. The car has since given me no trouble! The performance, handling and design of the car are top notch. If I could by a new one, Id do it now, but my next is either an SUV or another Impala. The car is a base model with few perks, but that is less to go wrong....increasing the reliability. This car is well worth the money and the made in America fact is a plus! Thanks Chevrolet

    The car sets to high in the back and visibility is limited due to window slope and size. There is a lot of road noise from the tires on most road surfaces but side noise seems to be low. Gas mileage is a little lower then I expected (by 2 or 3 MPG). The suspension is also to stiff for a full size seden.

    Poor - constantly something wrong with it. Brakes/injectors/and you cant even drive it in the snow.

  • Great But..... - 2002 Chevrolet Impala
    By -

    This car has it all. Luxury, fuel economy, options and.........noises! I love this car but I have had annoying creaks and cracks along the way. The brakes a very loud and have gotten worse. Dealer says they cannot change them as per GM.....well see about that. I bough this car black with tan leather interior. People still freak out over it when I drive by or park it somewhere. Fuel economy is outstanding for a car this size.

  • Great family car - 2002 Chevrolet Impala
    By -

    We bought this vehicle a year ago. We have taken it on several road trips with the kids. The ride has been very confortable and fuel economy reasonable given the average speed of our travels. We are extremely happy with it. This vehicle replaced a Camry we had owned which turned out to be a lemon.

  • MADE IN AMERICA - 2002 Chevrolet Impala

    When I bought this car I had a little question mark in my head - now I have a big smile on my face! This is the best sedan on the road - PERIOD. I drive 65/100 miles a day (Local,Highway,City) and look at all the "non" American four door vehicles that cost thousands more yet have less room, power and comfort. I laugh as I pass them by. The Impala LS is the best kept secret around. I have ordered an SS and cant wait!!!

  • 2002 Impala LS - 2002 Chevrolet Impala
    By -

    Weve owned this car for almost 18 months. Very few problems, nothing serious. Car handles well for its size and type (sport suspension) and gets phenominal gas mileage -- upwards of 30MPG at 80MPH. Lots of room and huge trunk. Its an excellent family car and were very pleased. If I had to list a few negitives, Id say the interior fit and finish could be better.

  • BEST CAR YET! - 2002 Chevrolet Impala
    By -

    WE HAVE OWNED MANY CARS IN THE PAST 20 YEARS...BUT THIS CAR & STYLE IS THE BEST YET! COMFORTABLE INTERIOR, NICE LOOKING EXTERIOR, AND MANY COMMENTS MADE TO US SINCE WE BOUGHT THIS CAR.
