Used Chevrolet Malibu for Sale

The mid-size Chevy Malibu first arrived for the 1997 model year and has a reputation as a high-value, surprisingly stylish sedan with a comfortable ride. The Malibu faces a ton of competition from higher-profile models in this segment, most notably the Honda Accord, Hyundai Sonata, and Ford Fusion. Most versions of the Malibu feature a 1.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that produces 160 horsepower and this smaller engine is one of the reasons why the Malibu can consistently earn a fuel economy of between 29 and 36 mpg. If you're seeking to really save money at the gas pump, you should check out the Malibu Hybrid (discontinued in 2020). In terms of safety, it has received a 5-star rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) along with a 5-star rating for front- and side-impact tests but if you're seeking the more advanced safety features such as forward-collision warning with automatic braking, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning and the self-parking system, you'll have to opt for the premium tier trims. At least the backup camera and heads-up infotainment screen are available in the entry-level trim. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto became standard in all version of the Malibu starting in 2021. The editors at Autotrader named the Malibu one of our ten must test drive vehicles for 2016, one of the ten best used cars of 2020, and among the best midsize cars for 2020. It was also the 3rd most affordable Chevrolet among all the manufacturer's models in 2020. The Malibu is available in the trims of L, LS, RS, LT, and Premier which comes with a 2.0-liter engine that generates 250 horsepower, ventilated seats and dual-zone automatic climate control. 2025 will be the last model year of the Malibu.
