Gurugram’s busy streets are often buzzing with modern-day luxury automobiles, but a pair of travellers recently stunned everyone by taking out their vintage 1965 Chevrolet Impala on the road. A fellow traveller recorded the two iconic vehicles in all their glory before a popular account shared the moment on Instagram.

In the video, one could notice how these classic American-made automobiles from Chevrolet were competing in presence and style with other expensive and modern-tech vehicles even today.

Chevrolet Impala

Chevrolet’s popular flagship passenger car, the Impala, was among the best-selling

automobiles of the company during its prime. Making its debut in 1958, the Impala always enjoyed a distinguished presence from other luxury automobiles in the US due to its symmetrical triple taillights. The models visible in the clip seem to be the Chevrolet Caprice, which was introduced by the brand in 1965 as the top variant of the Impala Sport Sedan. Later on, the brand introduced the Impala’s different variants between 1994-1996 and 2000-2020, respectively.
