If you're looking for an affordable sedan that's also stylish, reliable, efficient, and packed with modern tech, then the 2025 Chevy Malibu is for you. Here are a few of our favorite features in this excellent sedan, which, sadly, is in its last year of production. Great Fuel Efficiency You can expect up to 28 miles per gallon when you're out on the city streets and an amazing 34 miles per gallon when you're driving down the highway. Wherever you're headed, the Malibu is going to help you get there very efficiently. These are some of the best numbers in the segment. Quiet Cabin The Malibu is equipped with a special acoustic laminated windshield. The result is that all external sound is dampened, whether that's wind, engine noise, car horns, or anything else. It makes every drive more of a pleasure and makes your vehicle a haven. Chevy Infotainment 3 System Every Malibu comes with Chevy's Infotainment 3 system on an 8-inch touchscreen with a colored display. Using Bluetooth technology, you can make and receive phone calls and control things with just your voice, and you can easily and intuitively connect your Android or Apple phone to the system and sync up contacts and other apps. You also get a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot. Chevy Safety Assist Every Malibu also comes with Chevy Safety Assist. This is a suite of driver-assist technologies that make every drive easier and take a lot of the mental strain off the driver. The standard features that come with the system include lane departure warning, a following distance indicator, a rearview camera for backing up, and rear parking sensors to assist when you're backing up. Other options are available, including automated emergency braking, lane keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control. Warranty The warranty that comes with this vehicle is not just competitive but also outstrips a lot of of the competition, particularly in corrosion protection. The limited warranty covers three years or 36,000 miles, while the powertrain warranty is good for five years or 60,000 miles. The Basics In addition to these features, the Malibu has some basics that we need to cover. First, the trims. You can choose from four in 2025. These are the LS, the RS, the 1LT and the 2LT. They obviously have some differences when it comes to luxury and convenience features, with the higher trims having the most, but each one has a 1.5L turbo engine that gets 160 hp and 184 pound-feet of torque. You get a continuously variable transmission that gives you a smooth ride and good responsiveness when you press on the gas pedal.
