Chevrolet's 1977 model line-up features
a new era of full-size passenger cars of
reduced size and weight. Available as a
two-door Coupe, four-door Sedan , and
four-door station wagon, the all new
Caprice, Impala and Bel Air constitute the.
first totally new design in this new
generation of full-size cars.-
In creating the crisp new styling of the
1977 till-size cars, designers were given
the task of reducing vehicle exterior
package size Without sacrificing passenger
comfort and without any detraction in
character or content of the vehicle.
In comparison to the 1976 Chevrolet, the
new full-size Chevrolet is shorter in
wheelbase by 51/2 inches, with front and
rear overhang shorter by 2V2 inches and
overall length shorter 'by about 11 inches.
The very practical vehicle height is about
VA inches greater than the current
Chevrolet. Front and rear wheel treads.are
down about 3 incites..
Despite the smaller package size,
traditional big car roominess and comfort
have been maintained. Inside, Caprice,
Impala, Bel Air sedans and coupes have
more front'andrear head room, more rear
leg room and more usable trunk capacity
than their 1976 counterparts. Emphasis
has been placed on overall structure to
maximize passenger comfort.
Occupant entry and exit is substantially
easier for these 1977 models because of the
new exterior design which features less
door glass curvature and a higher roof line•
Seat height in the sedans has ,been
increased for improved comfort.
Other significatn changes in, the
Chevrolet lineup for 1977 are evident in the
styling of the compact Concours. The
Concours, now a finely appointed, luxury-
level compact vehicle, has undergone
attractive styling changes. A massive
appearing new grille provides the basis for
the distinctive Concours front appearantc.
The Corvette program for 1977 is one of
refinements encompassing appearance,,
convenience and performance for greater
owner satisfaction. Starting with exterior
appearance, the 1977' model can be
identified by new. crossed-flags .emblems.
between the headlamps and on the fuel
filler door. The familiar "Stingray" front
fender nameplate has been discontinued to
give the car a cleaner appearance. For the
• same reason, the air inlet grille at the rear
of the hood has been eliminated.
In the intermediate car lineup, the
Chevelle model line for 1977 is strimmed
down to two series. A two-door coupe,
four-door sedan and a four-door station
wagon will be offered in both the Malibu
andMalibu Classic series.
