Body style(s):
4-door sedan, 4-door wagon

Trim Levels: base, LS sedan; base wagon
MSRP range: $18,995-$21,435

Notes: The big news of 1994 was the introduction of the sport sedan derivative of the Caprice, the Chevrolet Impala SS, which replaced the LTZ model. Also, the 5.0L V8 was jettisoned for a newer 4.3L model, which matched power with better performance. A passenger-side airbag was also provided for the Caprice, and for its Impala twin. The 5.7L engine, used in wagons and optional in sedans, was a new model, with greater performance and sequential fuel injection, just like the smaller 4.3L.
