Some of the letters were not recognized by my computer (indicated by a square) but I guess you can just fill in the blanks as best as possible with what you're given. You don't have to translate it all if you do not have time or patience for it, any amount of the article translated would be great. Thanks ahead of time



Chevrolet Impala SS er en sporty variant av Chevrolets "fullsize-serie" Caprice Classic. I Amerika kalles denne kategorien av biler for "performance-oriented sport sedans".

Impala SS startet sitt liv som en konsept-bil. Mottakelsen den fikk verden over var mildt sagt enorm, og media k�ret den straks til sin favoritt. Chevrolet Motor Division bestemte seg derfor i 1994 for � sette den i produksjon.

Impala SS koster kun 170.000 kroner i USA. "Can you believe that"? Til og med s�ta bror kan kj�pe den til en fornuftig pris, 315.000 skr. I Norge er den dessverre uoppn�elig for de fleste av oss. Avgifter og atter avgifter tar livet av denne fantastiske kj�redoningen.

Hva f�r s� en heldig svenske for 315.000 skr? Les videre uten � bli for misunnelig: V8-motoren p� 5,7 liter som opprinnelig er en nedtrimmet LT-1 Corvette motor, med direkteinspr�ytning og 260 HK. Gearkassen er firetrinns "four on the floor" 4L60E-automat med overdrive. Ventilerte ABS skivebremser p� alle fire hjul er selvf�lgelig ogs� p� plass.

Impala SS har bakhjulstrekk og her er faktisk intet antispinn-system tilgjengelig, kun et system som gir like mye trekk-kraft til begge bakhjulene, "limited slip rear axle". Det blir garantert "feite r�yk-larver" etter deg hvis du fra stillest�ende tr�r gassen i gulvet. Dekkene kommer fra BF Goodrich og er av typen Comp T/A med dimensioner 225/50ZR17.

Rikholdig

Innvendig holder Impalaen ogs� m�l. Her er masser av plass for fem personer av amerikansk st�rrelse. Standard utrustningen inneholder: Airbag for f�rer og passasjer, justerbart l�rtrukket ratt, elektriske vinduer, elektriske d�rl�ser, elektrisk justerbart f�rersete, cruise kontroll, air conditionin, servostyring, audio-system, tyverialarm og store l�rtrukkede seter.

1996-modellen har et moderne og fristende design som tross sin lengde p� 5438 mm og bredde 1969 mm ikke stikker seg for mye fram i trafikken. Impala SS veier 1.830 kg, og drar avg�rde med 0 til 100 km/t p� respektable 7,3 sekunder og f�lger opp med en toppfart i overkant av 220 km/t. Bensinforbruket ligger p� 1,38 ltr/mil i byen og 0,90 ltr/mil p� landeveien.

Med sin h�ye vekt er det imponerende skidpad nummer man opererer med, hele 0,82 g. Hjulopphenget er av samme type som leveres i politibil-utgaven, og b�rer det betegnende navnet "law enforcement package". BFGoodrich dekkene og denne politi-pakken f�r ta �ren for Impalaens gode kj�reegenskaper.

Impala er som sagt et utspring av Caprice serien til Chevrolet. Skulle Impala-modellen bli for heftig, kan du ellers velge mellom to Caprice-modeller. Caprice Classic sedan som har god sitteplass til seks personer eller Caprice Classic Wagon med sitteplass til �tte personer. B�de Caprice og Impala-modellene bygges i byen Arlington i Texas.

Litt historikk

Impala er i dag "top of the line" modellen i Chevrolets modellserie. Den ble f�rste gang introdusert i 1958. Super Sport-modellen debuterte tre �r senere. 1960-tallets Impala SS-modeller var skikkelige muskelbiler, den gang fikk man V8-motorer helt oppe i 7,2 liter med godt over 400 HK. Budskapet var ogs� den gang klart "don't mess with me".

En av tidenes r�este Impala SS-modeller er utvilsomt 1962-modellen. Med firetrinns manuell gearkasse, koplet til en motor p� 409-CI (6,7 liter), med matchende 409 HK. Dette skipet av en bil veide tett p� to tonn, og brukte i underkant av seks sekunder fra 0 til 100 km/t. Kan vi si annet enn imponerende? "Go big or go home"
