Chevrolet Makes Stop/Start Standard in 2015 Impala



Stop/start technology will be standard on the 2015 Impala base 2.5-liter ECOTEC® engine, an addition that improves the vehicle’s city fuel economy by nearly 5 percent, or one mile per gallon.

The Impala comes standard with a four-cylinder engine, which currently accounts for more than 30 percent of Impala retail sales. It offers customers higher mpg city ratings and a more affordable entry price into the segment than six-cylinder competitors.

Stop/start shuts down the engine in certain driving conditions to reduce fuel consumption. The technology is becoming more prevalent worldwide. A recent report from Navigant Research predicted worldwide sales of vehicles with stop/start technology will grow from 8.8 million in 2013 to 55.4 million in 2022.

Your ideal vacation hot spot-- based on the Chevy you drive




IF YOU DRIVE A SONIC...
Your dream vacation destination is a Countryside Bed & Breakfast. One of your top priorities is maintaining a low impact lifestyle!  You'd rather enjoy a low-key vacation tucked away in a nook than out on the town spending money on fancy cocktails.

IF YOU DRIVE A SILVERADO...
One thing's for sure: it involves hiking!  It doesn't matter where you are, as long as you get to enjoy the great outdoors.  Friends describe you as adventurous-- and everyone loves your sense of humor.

IF YOU DRIVE A CRUZE...
You are smart and you like to get your money's worth-- so take a bite out of the Big Apple!  Even while on vacation, you're still all about that hustle.  If you are going to tap into that vacation time, you'd definitely prefer to have access to a shower AND wifi, 24/7.

IF YOU DRIVE A TAHOE...
You need to be on the beach right now!  You are the center of attention without even trying to be!  Your personality is magnetic, entertaining, and easygoing.  Like the Tahoe, you're up for anything and always a good time.  Party on.
