Chevy’s flagship sedan is no longer the queen of the rental fleet: It’s big, bold, and (more) beautiful, with a spacious, well-trimmed cabin. It also has the latest electronics—including an optional Wi-Fi hotspot—and a much improved driving experience with a well-damped ride and respectable handling. Revisions are few from its 2014 intro: The mild hybrid is dropped, the 2.5-liter four gets stop-start technology, and the 3.6-liter V-6 will offer CNG/bi-fuel technology later in the year.
