Chevrolet 2014 Impala production began at Oshawa Assembly today according to a company press release. Chevrolet's flagship sedan will start appearing in Chevrolet dealerships later this month.
The all-new model will be manufactured at General Motors' Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly Plant this coming May.
GM also confirmed that the new model will be built at Oshawa's "state-of-the-art" Flexible Manufacturing line along with the Chevrolet Camaro, Buick Regal and Cadillac XTS according to a company press release.
"The all-new Impala demonstrates the new direction of Chevrolet," said Kevin Williams, president and managing director of GM Canada. "Our employees in Oshawa have executed a flawless plan in bringing this iconic nameplate to life. The newly redesigned Impala will exceed customers' expectations because of the hard work of our employees at Oshawa Assembly."
Three direct-injection engine options will be made available by GM: a 3.6L V-6, a newly designed 2.5L four-cylinder and a 2.4L four-cylinder with fuel-saving eAssist technology estimated to deliver up to 35 mpg on highway driving.
Each engine is matched with a six-speed automatic transmission according to GM.
Chevrolet is confident their new Impala will succeed thanks to new features which include several new features like Adaptive Cruise Control and crash-avoidance technologies which include Side Blind Zone Alert and Rear Cross Traffic Alert according to GM.
Pricing for the 2.5-liter I-4 Impala starts at $27,535, and $30,760 for the V-6 option.
