The 2002 Impala continued to impress its drivers with a strong engine, good mileage, and comfortable ride for five adults.
The base engine remained a 3.4-liter, 180-horsepower V6, while the standard for the LS stayed a 3.8-liter, 200-horsepower V6. The standard engine gets 21/32 city/highway, while the LS pays a small cost for its larger engine, with 19/29 mileage.
The safety for both trims is excellent, with the LS slightly better with standard side airbags.
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2002 Chevrolet Impala appreciate its reliability and comfort, often noting that it offers good gas mileage and ample space, making it a practical choice for a first car or family use. However, many drivers express dissatisfaction with its underpowered engine and some aspects of performance, such as handling and acceleration. While it's generally seen as a solid option for daily driving, it lacks a sporty feel."
There is nothing that I do not like about this car. I would definitely recommend this car to others. It looks very sleek, extremely smooth ride. For a car this size and weigh, it is very easy on the gas mileage.
February 17, 2012I love it! Little luxury, little sporty, a lot of fun! Takes off fast too :) Handles sick! Brakes are excellant is summer, good in the winter. Fun to drive around in! Appearance is beautiful, pretty good gas mileage. Definately perfect for me!
December 17, 2008Good daily driver, handles well and has a lot of power. It is reliable and inexpensive to maintain. Good for interstate and back road driving, as well as driving in inclement wether. I would recommend this car to any one that needs a practical reliable vehicle. The low coast of maintenance makes up for the bad fuel economy

April 11, 2012Although I've had to replace a couple of different parts it is fairly reliable. I've driven it to OK and Ames with no problems. Never broke down for me. Large and comfortable. Not a granny car like most ppl say. Although I'd get one for my grandma if she wanted one. Good gas mileage. It's my baby.
August 27, 2008I would recommend this car to anyone lookig for a reliable sporty sedan. Very good gas mileage, great for travelling. lots of trunk space. comfortable even in the back seats. good stereo
April 11, 2008I drive it A LOT... good for family outings or commuting to school... decent gas mileage
January 25, 2008The car is easy to handle, is a champion when it comes driving on any road surface and in all kinds of. The gas mileage is good for the size of the car. Maintainance has been low. It is a well built car and very dependable.
April 22, 2014the car is great. gets good gas mileage and isn't under powered. It is a great first car and has been very reliable and cheap to maintain. It does the car some good to get it on a long hghway trip once in awhile to get everything cleaned out/
September 26, 2010This is a great car that i would recommend to anyone. The performance is ideal for anyone with a need for speed, and a lack of cash. It looks great and it is built very well. Its 3.8L V6 runs exceptionally smooth, and even has a good sound (at higher revs) and it has the most important quality i look for in a car, it's a blast to drive!
July 19, 2009-performance: for an older large family vehicle it is pretty good. -build quailty: hasnt broken down yet so i guess it's okay -appearcance: beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but i'd day it's not that good looking. -cost: VERY EASY maintenance, gas mileage is about 25-30mpg -fun to drive?: anything is fun to drive the only problem is the low tire pressure sensor.
