2024 Chevrolet Malibu Soldiers On Largely Unchanged, Minimal Pricing Tweaks Key Update

The Chevrolet Malibu is the last of the breed at Chevrolet, with the model not only being the last four-door sedan in the brand’s lineup but also one of only three sedans remaining across GM’s entire portfolio, with the Cadillac CT4 and CT5 bringing up the rear. GM’s push towards an SUV-dominated future has caused many of its other sedan models to bite the dust. However, the Malibu continues to hang on, and GM revealed that small pricing updates will define the 2024 Malibu when it makes its way to dealerships. 2024 Malibu Gets Light Touchup Work, And That’s …

2017 Chevrolet Malibu – Daily Driver Review – By Jake Newvine

The Chevy Malibu is a staple of American culture. Equivalent almost to apple pie or baseball in the way that it rolls off of the American consumers tongue. In 2016, Chevrolet reported that they’d sold their 10 millionth Malibu in the history of the name plate. Just in time for them to roll out their all-new model for 2016, The 9th generation Malibu. Chevrolet’s best Malibu yet! Today, I’m going to give you my take after a 20,000 mile test of the 2017 Malibu, equipped with the 1.5l Turbocharged I4. Let’s start with the packaging and trim levels.

Road Test Review – 2016 Chevrolet MALIBU LT – By Ken “Hawkeye” Glassman

Since seeing the new Chevy Malibu way back in February at the Chicago Auto Show, I was anxious to test drive. I thought it looked outstanding, and the leather interior was both handsome and inviting. So I was delighted to see the Silver Ice Metallic Malibu dropped off in my driveway for a week. I was disappointed that the model I got was the LT, rather than the top line 2LT or Premier trim levels. The LT comes with a 1.5 liter turbocharged engine rather than the 2.0 liter turbo. Heck, I’ve owned motorcycles with larger displacement engines. In fact …

Wow! 2016 Chevrolet Malibu Is Sexy Redesign With LWB Back-Seat Comfort + Hybrid Option

Is there a 2016 Malibu LWB!? That back seat was our main reservation in recommending the current car to anyone, even the 5.9-second turbo. The current cabin is unbelievably small and uncomfortable compared with Camry, Legacy, Accord and Mazda6. The materials and exterior style are also fairly blah for the current model. Chevy knows all this by heart. They have heard it exhaustively from shoppers over the last few years. Well, they have listened and taken action! Outside, the Malibu is all-new with a design that is a cool and fresh blend of Camaro and Impala. There is a dash …
