Here at your Bonney Lake Chevrolet Dealer we have noticed that the Charger has been attempting to compete with the Chevy Impala. Sad to say, it has failed in its attempts. The Dodge Charger just can’t compete with the Impala on any level. The Impala has greater power, performance, handling, safety and functionality. Below is a short sampling of some of the ways in which the Chevrolet Impala outperforms the Dodge Charger:

Safety: For increased safety, The Impala’s standard pretensioning seatbelts sense rear collisions and tighten the front seatbelts accordingly to protect passengers from injuries including whiplash. The Charger doesn’t offer a whiplash protection system. The front shoulder belts of the Chevrolet Impala are height-adjustable, and the rear seats have child car seat anchors. The Dodge Charger has only front height-adjustable seat belts and child safety anchors. In order to stay visible at all times, the Impala has daytime running lights. Once again, The Charger does not offer this.

We all get into sticky situations from time to time. The New 2012 Chevy Impala offers OnStar_, which uses GPS and cellular systems to remotely unlock your doors if you lock your keys in, track down your vehicle if it’s stolen and even send emergency personnel to the scene if there is a collision. Nothing comparable to OnStar comes on the dodge Charger, meaning help may not come as fast as it would with the Impala.

Warranty: Chevrolet’s powertrain warranty comes with free roadside assistance a feature not available with the Charger’s warranty. The Impala’s corrosion warranty is also 1 year longer than the Charger’s. Furthermore, there are over 40% more Chevrolet dealers than Dodge dealers, which means that it’s much easier to get your Impala serviced under warranty than it is to get a Charger serviced.

Engine: The Impala’s 3.6L DOHC V6 produces 8 more horsepower than the Charger’s standard engine. At the same time, the Impala’s engine is also more efficient than the Charger’ engine.

Interior: The Impala offers optional seating for up to six passengers while the Charger can only carry a maximum of five passengers. The Impala also has more passenger volume than the Charger allowing for a more comfortable ride for everyone in the car. The Impala also offers a much more trunk space than the Charger with more than 3 cubic feet of extra storage capacity.
