Smooth and Efficient: Chevy Malibu

The Chevy Malibu has been a popular sedan–some may argue it's the best sedan for everyday driving–since its introduction in 1964. It offers reliability, fuel efficiency, and comfort, making it perfect for fall drives.

The new Malibu provides a comfortable interior. The 8-way power driver seat with power lumbar and dual-zone automatic climate control is standard on several models, so getting your seat to the perfect spot and maintaining a comfortable temp has never been easier. There's also a dual-pane power sunroof so you can feel the cool fall air on rides.

Stay connected with the Mailbu's Infotainment 3 System and 8-inch touchscreen display. Stream all your favorite music, podcasts, or audiobooks with Bluetooth connectivity, Apple CarPlay™, and Android Auto™. Wif-Fi hotspot capabilities are standard on all trims. Keep your devices charged with either a USB port or a wireless charging pad on the 2LT trim.

Chevy knows that safety is everything on the road. That's why Chevy Safety Assist comes standard on every new model. This safety suite includes automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, front pedestrian braking, following distance indicator, lane keep assist with lane departure warning, and IntelliBeam auto high beams. Other available safety features include adaptive cruise control, rear cross-traffic alert, and automatic parking assist.

One of the Malibu's best features is its fuel efficiency. It gets an estimated 28 MPG in the city driving and 36 MPG on the highway, meaning less frequent stops at the pump.

Exploring the Outdoors: Chevy Trailblazer

If you need a little more room than a sedan offers, look no further than the Chevy Trailblazer. The Trailblazer is an outstanding compact SUV and with the ACTIV trim, you'll be ready to explore SC parks with Chevy. This trim is equipped with off-road suspension tuning, a skid plate, roof rails, and a powerful 1.3-liter ECOTEC turbo engine. The off-road capabilities are paired with enhanced style thanks to features like 17-inch gloss black wheels, and a gloss black mesh grille with titanium chrome accents.

Inside the Trailblazer, you'll have room for five passengers and up to 54.4 cubic feet of cargo space. The second row of seats fold 60/40 to accommodate both passengers and cargo. Stay connected and keep all of the most important information at hand with the 11-inch touchscreen. And with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, you can seamlessly connect your phone and use all of your favorite apps.

The Trailblazer comes standard with a three-year Remote Access Plan, allowing you to control various vehicle functions from your smartphone with the myChevrolet mobile app. With this app, you can start and stop your engine remotely and lock/unlock the doors. Additionally, it provides insights into your Trailblazer's fuel levels, tire pressure, and other important metrics.

Like the Malibu, Chevy Safety Assist comes standard on the Trailblazer ACTIV.

Room for Everyone and Everything: Chevy Traverse

The family-friendly Chevy Traverse provides plenty of room for your entire crew and their gear. With three rows of seating, there's space for up to eight when you choose a second-row bench seat. The second and third rows fold down and can even be removed if you need more cargo space. Behind the third row, there is 22.9 cubic feet of cargo room, which expands to a whipping 97.6 cubic feet when you fold down the second and third rows.

The Traverse boasts the largest touchscreen among three-row SUVs: a giant 17.7-inch diagonal color touchscreen! An 11-inch driver information center comes standard and keeps the info you need most right in your line of sight. The Chevy Infotainment System is powered by Google Built-In, so you'll always have quick access to your favorite apps and playlists. There are also up to six USB ports to keep all of your devices charged.

Whether you're picking your kids up from practice or heading out for a weekend road trip, the Chevrolet Traverse is the perfect SUV for the job.
