The redesigned 2016 Chevrolet Malibu — available in the L, LS, LT, Premier and Hybrid models — is more fuel-efficient, spacious and technologically advanced than earlier models.
The new 1.5-liter Ecotec Turbo engine with stop/start technology makes the 2016 Malibu 8% more fuel-efficient than the 2015 model, getting 37 mpg highway and 27 mpg city. The hybrid model gets up to 48 mpg on the highway!
The mid-size Malibu — which is 1.3 cubic feet short of being a full-size sedan — has 1.3 inches more rear leg room and has improved knee clearance.
The Malibu is almost 300 pounds lighter and the wheelbase will be stretched by nearly four inches (101 mm) to enhance overall performance and fuel efficiency.
Be connected wherever you go with wireless smartphone charging, dual rear-seat USB ports and 4G LTE Wi-Fi for up to seven wireless devices. Plus, send text messages, make calls, listen to music, use your phone’s apps and access maps and navigation with the Chevy MyLink infotainment system that is compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The new safety features on the 2016 Malibu are Intellibeam headlights, adaptive cruise control, front automatic braking, front and rear park assist, front pedestrian braking, automatic parking assist, forward collision alert with following distance indicator, lane change alert with side blind zone alert, lane keep assist with lane departure warning, low speed front automatic braking and Teen Driver.
