The 1967 Chevrolet Impala is a classic four-door hardtop muscle car featured in the Asphalt series.

Description

The Chevrolet Impala is a full-size car built by Chevrolet for model years 1958 to 1985, 1994 to 1996, and 2000 to present. Deriving its name from the African antelope of the same name, Chevrolet's most expensive passenger model through 1965 had become the best-selling automobile in the United States. Engine choices included the inline six-cylinder as well as the small-block and big-block V8s. A new three-range Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission was optional for 396 cu in (6.5 L) V8. Two-speed Powerglide, as well as 3- and 4-speed manual transmissions were available. As with previous years, Impalas featured more chrome trim inside and out, with pleated tufted upholstery and door panels. The Impala would be the #2-selling convertible in the U.S. in 1966, with 38,000 sold; it was beaten by the Mustang by almost 2:1. 1966 saw a pair of enlarged big-block V8s measuring a massive 427 cubic inches. RPO L36 was rated at 385 horsepower, the L72 at 425. The L72 was only available with a manual transmission.

Asphalt 8: Airborne

Summary

The 1967 Chevrolet Impala was added in the Championship Update originally as an Enduro Double Down-unlockable high-end Class A car but was postponed.

The "new" 1967 Chevrolet Impala was officially released in the Lunar New Year 2017 Update, and instead as a Multiplayer League reward.

With its debut update, the 1967 Chevrolet Impala's top speed had been significantly nerfed, but its acceleration, handling, and nitro stats remained nearly the same as the Class A original.

The 1967 Chevrolet Impala is a mid-Class D car wtih the following statistics:

• Starting rank: 784 (originally 775)
  • This was changed to 935 in the Showdown Update.
• MAX rank: 1120 (+336) (originally 1482 (+707))
  • This was changed to 1125 (+190) in the Showdown Update.
• MAX+PRO rank: 1312 (+192) (originally 1775 (+293))
  • This was changed to 1306 (+181) in the Showdown Update.
  • This was changed to 1048 (+113) in the Hot Winter Season Update].
• 0808 Elite Tuning rank: 1342 (+30) (originally 1833)
  • This was changed to ? in the Showdown Update.
  • This was removed in the Sixth Anniversary Update.
• Tuning Kit bonus: +69 (originally +85)
  • This was changed to +50 in the Showdown Update.
• Stock to MAX+PRO rank difference: 528 (originally 1000)
  • This was changed to 371 in the Showdown Update.
• Upgrade rank percentages: 10/40/10/40
• Nitro Efficiency: 9/14/19 (originally 8/13/18)

As of the Hot Winter Season Update, the Impala is now a low D class car.

Performance

The 1967 Chevrolet Impala performs similarly to the 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28. It features low nitro efficiency, slow acceleration and poor handling with a wide drifting radius.

With a top speed of 229.8 mph/370.1 km/h, the 1967 Chevrolet Impala technically qualifies as the sixth fastest car in Class D, behind the SUBARU IMPREZA WRX STI, Buick Avista Concept, nanoFlowcell QUANTINO, Mazda RX-8, and Hyundai i30 N, and ahead of the Ariel Atom V8. However, it is unable to compete properly with these cars, and also the Donkervoort D8 GTO and Porsche 959, due to its overall poor performance apart from total top speed.

Usage

The 1967 Chevrolet Impala is largely a collector's car. While usable for TLEs, it is far from the best Class D TLE car. In Multiplayer, the 1967 Chevrolet Impala is above average in terms of speed, but nowhere near the "kings".

For example, a tune of 0504 4050, ET4811 @1099, results in a speed of 212.7 mph (342.3 km/h) with a Tuning Kit. Of course, the tune isn't perfect. However, it gives a rough outline of how well the 1967 Chevrolet Impala can perform in Multiplayer. At the same rank, the Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe and Range Rover Evoque Coupe HSE Dynamic travel at 220.6-221.2 mph (355-356 km/h), while the Porsche 959 travels at over 221.8 mph (357 km/h). With its overall poor performance and inferior total top speed to these cars, the 1967 Chevrolet Impala is not recommended for use in Multiplayer, despite its "above-average" speed.

The 1967 Chevrolet Impala doesn't belong to any collections and isn't featured in Career Mode, but it can be used in Chevrolet-only events, though not very competitive, even at MAX+PRO.

Price

The Impala previously required 14 Common-rarity Blueprints to be built however with the Sixth Anniversary Mini Update, it was made available for  1,100. It is the fifth car to be released as a Multiplayer League reward and was part of the fifth Multiplayer Season (Coldsnap Season, started on the 3rd of February 2017).

Originally, during the Lunar New Year 2017 Update, tune-ups cost  3,000​ and take 2 hours 30 minutes to finish, a holdover from its original Class A placement. The Car Blueprints reduced the tune-ups to  1,750​ and 2 hours to finish. A hotfix during the Motorcycles Update later reduced the tune-ups to  800​ and 40 minutes to finish. The Sixth Anniversary Update removed the car's Elite status.

The Impala was on sale for a limited-time during the following dates:

• February 14 - 18, 2021:  110,000 (8% off)

As of the 2023 Lunar New Year Update, upgrades require 55 of each Common Tires, Common Suspension, Common Drivetrain, and Common Exhaust, 160 1967 Chevrolet Impala Kit and  800,000.
