With such ground-breaking design and technology, the 2017 Malibu is difficult enough to recognize with the badge, let alone without one. So, we brought real people, not actors, to a fake market research facility to see if they would be able to recognize the Malibu without any badges or branding. Here’s what happened.
A powerful 2.5L engine that produces 186HP
8-inch tablet-like touchscreen with Apple CarPlay™ support
A spacious and premium interior
An extremely affordable cost of maintenance
Building on its proud American heritage, the ninth-generation 2017 Chevrolet Malibu features the latest in aerodynamic design. This mid-sized sedan was designed to offer impressive safety, like Automatic Front Low Speed Collision Braking, and a host of intuitive technology like Apple CarPlay™ support that aims to simplify and elevate the driving experience.
Those who crave exhilaration will not be disappointed. The Malibu 250HP boasts a powerful 2.0L Turbocharged engine, which produces a whopping 250HP and offers up 353 Nm of torque. It’s not just world class. The Malibu 250HP is in a class of its own. Powerfully efficient and paired with a smooth-shifting 6-speed automatic transmission, the 2.5L engine delivers 186 horsepower, 249NM of torque and the kind of driving performance that will be sure to put a smile on your face.
Inside, premium finishing and ergonomic design comes coupled with the latest in automotive technology. From power memory-seats to the impressively quiet drive thanks to the acoustic laminated windshield, every inch of the Malibu mid-size sedan was designed with you in mind.
The Malibu mid-size sedan offers impressive spaciousness with seating designed to keep you travelling in comfort. Already the widest car in its segment, the longer wheelbase frees up an additional 1.3 inches of legroom space for rear-seated passengers. Comfort levels are further elevated thanks to ventilated seating and in the LTZ an eight-way power adjustable driver seat.
Always use safety belts and the correct child restraint for your child’s age and size, even with air bags. Even in vehicles equipped with the Passenger Sensing System, children are safer when properly secured in a rear seat in the appropriate infant, child or booster seat. Never place a rear-facing infant restraint in the front seat of any vehicle equipped with an active frontal air bag. See the Owner’s Manual and the child safety seat instructions for more safety information.
