"The 2014 Chevrolet Impala finally trades in the previous model&amp;#039;s life of rental-car obscurity for a fresh new beginning. Unveiled at the 2012 New York Auto Show, this 10th generation of the Impala might lack the undercover FBI agent exterior of the old model, but it&amp;#039;s a vastly better sedan in every other way. Here are five things we like about the new Impala:   The looks. From every angle, the 2014 Impala is dramatically better looking and more modern than the outgoing model. The grille represents the new face of the Chevy brand. Few things offer customers better peace of mind than a wide array of safety features, and the Impala has plenty of them. Ten airbags are fitted as standard equipment. Collision mitigation braking, forward collision alert, lane departure warning, side blind zone alert and a rear cross traffic alert are also available.  Chevrolet had mostly LTZ models, the highest trim level available, on display in New York. Yet even without the leather-lined luxury of this range-topping variant, the overall layout of the Impala&amp;#039;s interior drags the car into the 21st century. The bowtie brand is finally building some world-class cabins.  The new Impala should be fuel efficient, especially the base 182-bhp 2.4-liter inline-4, which comes with GM&amp;#039;s eAssist mild hybrid system. In the Buick LaCrosse, this powertrain delivers an EPA estimated 25 mpg/36 mpg, city/highway, respectively. Little things make a big difference. However, in the case of the Impala, bigger things play an important role too. Even the base Impala LS comes with a set of 18-in. wheels fitted as standard. That&amp;#039;s some classy footwear for an entry-level model.   And a couple things we could live without...   Some have critiqued the Impala&amp;#039;s exterior as being too derivative of the competition. The front fascia does bear a passing resemblance to the Volkswagen Passat. Despite looking ready to roll off the production line, sales of the new Impala don&amp;#039;t officially begin until early 2013. Why the long wait, Chevy?        2014 Chevrolet Impala   "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
