First of all it gives the Malibu with the 2.4 liter petrol engine that has an output of 167 hp (123 kW). As befits an American car, we have the Malibu with automatic transmission and in the upscale LTZ design chosen. Chevy Malibu offers luxury model brought to the door. Come standard in the Malibu among others have ESP, ABS, 6 airbags, xenon headlamps with washers, electrically-adjustable leather seats, a rear parking aid, cruise control, dual-zone automatic air conditioning, 18 "alloy wheels, a CD radio with nine speakers, Rain and light sensor and a keyless entry and start system.
The interior of the Malibu offers a beautiful mix of modern elements and some retro-fitting inserts, such as square or trim, cut across the dashboard. Compared to the reputation of the U.S. cars of yesteryear, you can also find satisfaction that both the material quality and workmanship are top. No rattling and creaking no escape from the really very pretty and clearly laid-out dashboard.
The operation of all functions is intuitive, and as befits an American car, there are lots of shelves. A great hiding even behind the navigation screen, which is folded up.
Despite a length of 486 inches, the interior is not at all places been very generous. While the driver and passenger can still appreciate princely space, it is for the rear passengers a bit cramped. In the U.S., the Malibu is also the only mid-size sedans, which have just for the rear passengers is not quite as lush place. Positive but the chevy Malibu can shine again with its boot volume, which is 545 liters capacity extremely generous.
In sum, the properties of the interior but offers a lovely atmosphere, and you feel immediately at home. In addition, the 2.4 liter engine does its work pleasantly quiet, penetrating even at high motorway speeds neither motor nor roll-off and wind noise in the interior - Bravo!
Here, die-hard American car fans would surely want to have a smoother V6, but the downsizing is also facing major U.S. cars are not halted. They must be content now, the drivers of the U.S. sedans with 4 cylinders, in the case of the Malibu with a 2.4 liter 4-cylinder with 167 hp (123 kW).
With a maximum torque of 225 Nm, which is available at 4,600 r / min, it has enough power to keep at least 1.5 tons of weight on your toes. Especially in the low speed range, the gasoline engine is running very confidently, only when the tachometer is driving towards a red area, the engine feels a little irritated at. In 10.2 seconds but the U.S. sedan sprints from standstill to 100 km / h and up to 206 km / h.
Absolutely perfect is also very direct steering that immediately responds to every little steering movement. Far more like U.S. Design is the tuning of the 6-speed torque converter automatic, although with a very gentle, slow gear changes but can not quite convincing as the steering.
For such a large sedan in the Chevy Malibu can maneuver well in tight spaces, while parking also helps the rear parking aid, one for the front would not hurt either.
Not quite up to date is the consumption. On average, the Chevrolet Malibu in our test 9.8 liters of petrol per 100 kilometers, granted. A value that certainly offers potential for improvement. According to the work should be satisfied with 8.0 liters of great Americans. In the long U.S. highway at 110 km / h
Who is in the middle class in search of a sedan should always consult the Chevrolet dealer of their choice. The Chevrolet Malibu is made extremely smart, has a fully equipped and confident about having a good workmanship and a perfect sound insulation.
