Thinking of buying the 2011 Chevrolet Impala?

No 2011 Chevrolet Impala is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Thinking about the 2011 Chevrolet Impala? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.

Before you sign for the Impala

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA has 505 owner complaints on file, mostly about electronic stability control (esc), engine and electrical system. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.

The numbers in plain words

It is powered by the 3.5L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

By the EPA's combined rating of 10.4 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 31 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $16.12 to drive 100 km. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,900 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Space, size and seats

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. The EPA lists 538 litres for luggage, roughly bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.

When the Impala makes sense

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

Try before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the Impala for a week and see how it fits your life. Rent the Impala first, and buy only if it fits your life.

The cost of driving it

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $161.20 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,900 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Year and trim

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Within the 2011 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.

Talk to a person

Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.

Rent it for a week before you buy
