The 1959 Chevrolet Impala, following the styling excess of the late Fifties, was radically reworked and veered away from the GM pack by shooting its tailfins outward rather than upward. Naturally, the growing size contributed to an abundance of poundage — one more trend of the times. Sharing bodyshells with lower-end Buicks and Oldsmobiles as well as with Pontiac — part of a GM economy move — Chevrolets rode a wheelbase 11/2 inches longer than before. Admakers always were fond of naming nearly every part, but this year’s “bat wing” fins above “cat’s eye” taillights earned no such designations in the sales catalog. Atop a new X-frame chassis, roofs sat three inches lower, and bodies measured more than two inches wider overall.

Gray was the only interior color offered on the 1995 Chevrolet Impala SS. However, the Impala featured a more sophisticated suspension system that gave it amazing agility for a two-ton sedan. The only powertrain offered was again the 260-horsepower 5.7-liter LT1 V-8 mated to a four-speed automatic transmission. Since this same combination was optional on the Caprice, the Impala SS remained largely an appearance upgrade — and even that was compromised somewhat this year, as the Caprice took on the Impala’s “dog leg” rear roof pillar.
