In US automotive culture, 'Impala' refers to the Chevrolet Impala — one of America's most iconic full-size cars, produced since 1958. The Impala has deep cultural resonance in lowrider, hip-hop, and classic car communities, particularly the 1960s models. Referring to it simply as 'an Impala' or 'the Impala' in American conversation usually means the car, not the African antelope.
