Who are the most important critics of all? The people who own a vehicle and report back about their ownership experience. That is precisely what is measured by the J.D. Power and Associates 2008 Initial Quality Study. Its results? Chevrolet Malibu was named the Highest Ranked Mid-size Car in Initial Quality in the U.S.
Still think hybrids are expensive? Then you haven't taken a look at the most affordable mid-size hybrid in Canada – Malibu Hybrid. † It combines the GM Hybrid Propulsion Electric System with a gasoline-powered 2.4L dual overhead cam ECOTEC VVT engine. The resulting fuel efficiency is very impressive: 6.2 L/100 km highway and 8.5 L/100 km city ratings. †† Malibu Hybrid – now you're talking.
The first mission of Malibu's safety package is to avoid an incident before it occurs, with a host of standard driver control features. They include four-wheel disc brakes with a four-wheel anti-lock braking system (ABS), in addition to the StabiliTrak electronic stability control system with panic brake assist and full-function traction control.
Malibu LTZ introduces you to a higher form of performance, thanks to the available 252 hp 3.6L V6 with variable valve timing (VVT). The engine is mated with a six-speed automatic transmission that features TAPshift driver shift control, combining the benefits of manual and automatic transmissions. And with the 18" aluminum wheels on LTZ, even the look is performance oriented
All Malibu models feature six standard air bags: dual-stage frontal air bags with a Passenger Sensing System, front seat-mounted thorax side-impact air bags, and front-to-rear head curtain side-impact air bags.
