Edmunds.com on the Chevrolet Impala: "The best Chevy sedan we've driven in a long time." Plus, "Occupant safety is a big selling point for the Impala."

Brought back into production with the 2000 model year, the new "smaller" version of the Impala quickly became Chevy's top selling sedan. In fact, it's also the top selling domestic sedan. Only the Honda Accord and Toyota Camry have better sales here in the U.S..

Large enough to seat six, yet toned down in engine size to a more gas-friendly V6, the Impala still gets plenty of oomph with its 3.5 liter engine that produces 211 horsepower. But for those who must have more get-up-and-go, you need look no further than the Impala SS with its 5.3 liter V8 and an impressive 303 horsepower.

And if a compromise is in order, there's always the 3.9 liter V6 on the LTZ model making 240 horsepower.

And the drive of the Impala is smooth and quiet ... very impressive. It reminds me a bit of the Cadillac, but with a Chevy price.

And did you know that you can start-up the engine with a simple touch of the key fob? This means you can get that air conditioning going (or heater and window defroster, depending on where you are) while still in the comfort of your home to avoid those first few unpleasant minutes in the car.
