2006 Chevrolet Impala / Monte Carlo Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2006 | 4dr Sedan 211-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
Interior room is outstanding. Trunk room is phenomenal, especially with flip and fold flat rear seat. see full Chevrolet Impala / Monte Carlo review |
2005 | 4dr Sedan 180-horsepower 3.4L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
Rear seat had good room. Passengers had good leg room. Only adults over 6ft would touch the backs of the front seat with their legs. Draw back was the low roof. see full Chevrolet Impala / Monte Carlo review |
