i rented one this past summer...i cant believe it was just a 1.5l engine it had plenty of power and the gas mileage was amazing and the air conditioning has an eco mode which puts the gas mileage almost normal with ac on so when i drove i always got 30 mpg in town while the wife got 26

The 2.0 with the new 9 speed automatic will push this car to 60 in 5.7 seconds and the quarter mile goes by at 14.3 at almost 100 mph, top speed is drag limited at 153 mph. Also, the premier does not have the START/STOP feature as on the 1.5 models. For those who commented on 300 horsepower, Trifecta Tune can be downloaded at a cost of $400, takes around 30 minutes in adds 50 more hp.

I purchased a Chevy Malibu in October 2017; my first car from an American brand. Everything was great until March 2019. The check engine was on for the first time. I took to the dealership in Dallas, TX and they stated that the problem was the water intrusion in the air shutter harness. They stated that they replaced the part. Three weeks later, the check engine light was on again. Now, the technician states that we need to replace exhaust valve lash adjusters. After doing that, they will re-test; no certainty on solving the problem. The cost for that is now $2,021 after paying $519.73 the first time. How is it possible that all the advertising on TV is about how dependable this car is and this is what happened after just 1 1/2 yrs of use. GM would not assist with not even part of the cost. I drive a lot but I had cars from Asian brands before (Honda, Toyota, and Hyundai). All of those cars I put over 200,000 miles on them and NEVER required such an expensive repair. I just want people to know because I do not want anyone else having to go with what we are going thru. GM do not stand by their product.

Great vehicle...until you get to the engine. 1.5 liters is way too small for the size of the car. On my last trip to Reno, I found it working very hard to climb the Sierra Nevada mountains. It worked so hard that it noticeably affected the mpgs. It took 3/4 of a tank to get there from Ukiah, CA. Most others only take about 5/8 of a tank. Spend way too much time with my foot to the floor to get moving. Drop the 1.5. Make the 2.0 the base engine, and add the 3.6 liter V6 as an option and you have something here.

2017 Malibu LT review ---> The paint is so thin the wind scratches it . The seats have very thin 2 inch cushions that are very uncomfortable & will be completely worn in less that 2 years . The cheap tires are very noisy & will be worn in 2 years . Its not a smooth ride either . Theres no carpet . Now lets talk about the super annoying stop/start feature -->Yes its bad , but what I do to keep it from activating is I just down shift one click to L2 every time right b4 I come to a stop & it doesnt come on . ( may be annoying to some , but I do it every time & it works for me ) The only good thing is the buttons & switches like the dome lights , radio & other button funtions , thats it . TRUE OWNER

LaKera wow! Reading both of these reviews I’m so annoyed and disappointed in Chevy. I have a 2014 Malibu and I love it. I just wish they upgraded the tech, gave it a larger infotainment screen (8’-9’), better quality materials, more aggressive styling w/ updated LED lighting all the way around, and a more powerful engine with AWD capabilities. But in 2016 they ruined the damn car. Here’s some of the small changes they’ve made in the WRONG direction... 1. Changing the way to operate 60/40 split. Whose idea was this and WHY? It was simple, looked good, and perfectly fine the way it was on the 2015 Malibu! 🙄 2. 2015 model’s hydraulic hood stand they’ve replaced on the 2016 Malibu with the cheap kick stand. Smh.😩 3. The trunk arms were hidden on 15 model, giving it a more luxurious or upscale feel. 2016 it was someone’s great idea to re-expose them on the newer model Malibu even on LT and Premier trims. ANY REASON FOR THIS?! 4. They overall styling is just getting more and more flamboyant and less aggressive. The complete opposite of Altima, Camry and Optima. 2016 Malibu looks like a fish and 2019 refresh is even worse. SMH. They’ve literally back tracked and CHEAPED out with this vehicle and it’s frustrating and dumb as hell.

The only things I dont like about the malibu. Is that for a car that big I feel like the I4 should have more than 160 horsepower. Maybe like 180 to 200 and that the infotainment system looks like someone glues a tablet onto the dash instead of being apart of the dash. But all in all this is the car I'm buying when I get back home

I am in the market to buy a car from that segment I drove them all seem them all , not Nissan I dont like the Altima. but the interior and dashboard of the Malibu was the fact I didnt like. but still is a possibility , they are giving a lot of discounts in those cars ,so that helps . so far for me Mazda is the 1st in my list . is my humble opinion . and right now my daily driver is and 1995 Acura legend coupe I rescue from abandonment in a mechanic lot.
