2012 Chevrolet Impala Ltz Sedan 4-door 3.6l on 2040-cars
Grand Rapids, Michigan, United States
The
Impala LTZ is a roomy, front-wheel-drive 4-door sedan. All trims now include a
standard 3.6L V6 engine that features variable valve timing, is FlexFuel
compatible, and makes 302 horsepower and 252 lb-ft of torque. It's paired with
a 6-speed automatic transmission, which allows it to hit 30 mpg on the highway,
according to the EPA. With a rather conventional MacPherson strut-type front
suspension and trailing-arm rear suspension, with a stabilizer bar in back, the
Impala is tuned to bring a smooth ride yet handle reasonably responsively. The
body and suspension systems were designed to include some significant
sound-deadening measures, which make the Impala quiet on the highway and over
coarse surfaces. Depending on the trim level, the Impala comes with either a
front bench seat or two individual buckets. In back, there's enough room for
three adults across, and the seatbacks fold forward for a full pass-through to
the trunk for larger cargo items. There's a storage tub under the rear
cushions. And a sunroof is available. Side and side-curtain airbags are
standard on all Impalas, along with GM's StabiliTrak stability control system
and 4-wheel anti-lock disc brakes. There are LATCH child-seat connectors in all
three rear seating positions. Even the base LS model includes keyless entry,
cruise control, power windows and locks and air conditioning. LT models get
larger machined aluminum wheels, a remote start system, dual-zone climate
control and Bluetooth hands-free. At the top of the range, the LTZ comes
equipped as a more sophisticated, sporty sedan, with upgraded wheels and
W-rated tires, heated seats, heated mirrors, a universal remote, and Bose
audio. All sound systems include an auxiliary input. The available remote-start
system in the Impala is claimed to work up to 200 feet away, and will pre-heat
or cool the vehicle. Also included in the Impala is the latest Gen 9.0 version
of OnStar, with improved voice recognition, along with Direction and
Connections services and Turn-by-Turn navigation, which allows you to beam
route guidance from a call center into the vehicle.

GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics
Mon, 20 Aug 2012After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else
Sat, 16 Feb 2013The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.
Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green
Fri, 01 Mar 2013With all of the attention given to the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray lately, you could be forgiven for thinking that it's already well along in production, yet tooling up for the new C7 has only just begun. In fact, production of the outgoing C6 generation in Bowling Green, Kentucky just halted on Thursday.
As the C6 has aged, production numbers have predictably ebbed along with demand, but this year, the addition of the 427 and 60th anniversary models resulted in an uptick in vehicles built - this, despite a model year shortened by around 25 percent to accomodate the new model changeover. The final C6 Corvette ever, No. 13,466 built this year, was a white 427 Convertible destined for the General Motors Heritage Center museum. The car's 7.0-liter V8 heart was assembled by Corvette chief engineer Tadge Juechter himself.
In total, Bowling Green pushed out 215,100 C6 Corvettes over nine years. If you're still a C6 fan at heart and are hoping to get a good deal on a phase-out model, step lively - Chevrolet reportedly had about 6,100 unsold units, which Autoweek suggests is good for around five and a half months of supply at the model's current sales rates. Given that demand will likely slacken even further as the C7 draws closer, that should be a big enough stockpile to keep dealers satisfied until 2014 Stingrays begin showing up on their forecourts in December.
