Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The 2020 Chevrolet Impala relies on two distinct air filters to keep you driving smoothly: the engine air filter and the cabin air filter. The engine air filter protects the 3.6L V6 from harmful particles that reduce horsepower and fuel efficiency; a clogged engine filter can raise emissions and stress engine components, shortening their life. The cabin air filter, by contrast, preserves interior comfort by trapping pollen, dust, and road pollutants before they enter the HVAC system. At Stevinson Chevrolet in Colorado, our factory-trained technicians evaluate both filters during routine maintenance, explaining the differences in plain language and showing you the actual condition of each filter. Using OEM parts ensures fit and filtration performance match manufacturer standards, which helps maintain warranty coverage and long-term reliability. We recommend addressing both filters proactively—doing so delivers immediate improvements in drivability and air quality while preventing downstream repairs.
