Fuel Economy and Performance

With gas prices soaring, fuel efficiency is now more important than ever. Spare yourself pain at the pump in the new Chevy Malibu! Most models come standard with a turbocharged 1.5-liter V4 engine, producing 160 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. Premier trims upgrade to a turbocharged 2.0-liter V4 engine, achieving an impressive 250 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. (Note: Front-wheel drive is the only option. All-wheel drive is not available.)

Regardless of engine, when paired with a continuously variable transmission, the Malibu gets 29 mpg in the city, 36 mpg on the highway and 32 mpg combined.
