2017 Chevrolet Impala

The Chevrolet Impala full-size sedan receives several small updates and changes for the 2017 model year — the fourth year that the tenth-generation model is on the market.

The most notable change to the 2017 Impala is that the LTZ trim has been renamed to Premier, as per Chevy’s plan to replace LTZ with Premier across the lineup. But despite the name change, the 2017 Chevy Impala continues to be offered in three models, just like the 2016 model it replaces:

  • LS (1GX69)
  • LT (1GY69)
  • Premier (1GZ69)

Two exterior colors — Citron Green Metallic and Jet Black/Mojave — are deleted, while two new ones — Arctic Blue Metallic and Pepperdust Metallic — are added. Plus, the Jet Black/Wheat interior replaces Jet Black/Mojave. The new interior color combo is available exclusively on LT and Premier trims and is pegged for late availability.

Finally, the LT equipment group gets streamlined from three trims for 2016 (1LT, 2LT, 3LT/CNG) to:

  • 1LT with the 2.5L 4 cylinder engine standard and available 3.6L V6 LFX engine, and
  • 3LT/CNG with the 3.6L V6 LFR engine

There’s also a note about cyber security being added to the vehicle, but we’re not quite certain what that means. We’ve reached out to Chevrolet for comment and will update this article when we hear back.

Following are GM’s official RPO-level changes to the 2017 Chevy Impala:

2017 Chevy Impala Deletions

  • (GA1) Citron Green Metallic exterior color
  • (H1P) Jet Black/Mojave interior trim

2017 Chevy Impala New Features

  • (GGB) Arctic Blue Metallic exterior color
  • (GMU) Pepperdust Metallic exterior color (late availability)
  • Cyber security added

2017 Chevy Impala Changes

  • LTZ is renamed Premier
  • Single LT equipment group with standard 2.5L 4 cylinder engine and available 3.6L V6 engine
  • Jet Black/Wheat interior replaces Jet Black/Mojave; available on LT and Premier; late availability

We expect the 2017 Chevy Impala to reach the market in the third quarter of calendar year 2016.
