Chevrolet Malibu

Since its debut in the 1960s, the Chevrolet Malibu has evolved into a popular midsize sedan known for delivering comfort and functionality at an attractive price point. Its strengths include a roomy cabin with ample legroom in both rows, a user-friendly infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integration, and a smooth and composed ride. It also earns better than average fuel efficiency for its class. However, while the Malibu offers many positives, it does have a few drawbacks. The quality of its interior, which includes some hard plastics, is a letdown for some owners, and its base engine, though adequate for most driving situations, doesn't offer the lively performance offered by some rivals. Additionally, while advanced safety features are available on the Malibu, most are typically optional.

Wish Pandora played without an auxiliary device. Shame XM subscription was so short. Stitcher was a waste of space for a more useful app.

The only thing about my new car is the fact that when I come to a stop sign or light the car sounds like it quits running and has been hard for me to get used to. But it gets great gas mileage and I love that.

The only thing I would change about my Malibu is the way the air conditioner does not cool properly during the start/stop electric battery process. I live in the south. It is often too hot for me to enjoy the full benefit of this feature.

Love it for the most part a bit concerned about the fitting of the cat whisker on the driver's rear door. Seems loose @ times.

I think that the inside of the car should be a little more roomy just like the room of the BUICK LACROSSE.
