2013 Chevy Impala Review Pictures

One of the first things you notice about the 2013 Chevy Impala is its gargantuan proportions. Nearly 207 inches long, Impala is a foot longer than the Chevy Tahoe and GMC Yukon. It's 3 inches longer than the Toyota Sequoia and an inch longer than the Ford Expedition. The very first thing you notice about the Chevy Impala is its bold looks. Part of that is its size. Its wide stance and long wheelbase with short front and rear overhangs give it a look of strength. In other words, the wheels are pushed out toward the corners of the truck, making for easier manoeuvrability in tight quarters as well as rock-solid stability on the highway.
Adding to the 2013 Chevy Impala bold presence are its big chrome bumpers. Its big grille is body-colored on the SE, chromed for even more visual strength on the LE. It makes for an imposing image in rear-view mirrors. Viewed by some angles, the Chevy Impala almost looks like a cartoon drawing. The rear-door handles are mounted on the C-pillar instead of down on the door panel. The standard running boards are a good feature because step-in height is 21 to 22.5 inches, depending on drive train and wheel size. Viewed from the rear, the Chevy Impala has a wide rear window, which can be opened separately. The hatch is large, providing a big opening for loading or unloading cargo. Though large, the rear door feels light when opening or closing it. A power option allows the door to be opened or closed at the touch of a button on the key fob, useful when approaching with an armload of groceries on a rainy day. Enhancing the Chevy Impala wide stance are narrow shoulders that frame the vertically stacked tail lamps and a tall-chromed center section of the rear bumper. 

As mentioned, the 2013 Chevy Impala is based on the Nissan Titan, a full-size pickup. For its part, the Titan is the first pickup from an import brand to go head-to-head against the full-size Ford F-150, Dodge Ram, and Chevy Silverado. (The Toyota Tundra is smaller and doesn't quite go head to head.) The interior is attractive, comfortable and convenient. There's a nice mix of materials. You won't find any fake wood-grain trim and the only chrome is the Nissan emblem at the center of the steering wheel. The Seton leather available on the Off-Road model is rich and luxurious and has a lot of texture that makes it interesting to look at. The eight-way adjustable driver's seat is comfortable and supportive. Adjustable pedals and tilting steering wheel help ensure the proper driving position.
