Great so far

Only owned it for a few weeks but so far it’s great. Good mpg, great interior and exterior. Small engine but great for commuting. Overall great

I went to the dealer intending to buy anything BUT

And I ended up very pleasantly surprised with my GM. Working in automotive, I know the issues with the 1/4l turbo engines in the cruze's - and SWORE I would not get a turbo vehicle, let alone a GM. I had yet to be introduced to the new generation of Cruze's and Malibu's. The architecture of the engine appears to have borrowed some heavy Euro turbo engine design cues, and seems to have fixed several issues, such as the injector placement, intake design, and turbo blow-off valve seat. I'm sold, and you should be too.

Nicest car I have owned

Heated leather seats during the winter was awesome along with the remote start. i like listening to music when i drive, so having the Bose premium audio was awesome.

Drives like a dream!

I'm going to enjoy this car! Roomy, handles well, and super comfy. Great color and awesome features. Tech savvy and easy to operate. The keyless entry is really cool.

Best car I ever had

I drive approximately 80miles a day to and from work and running my daughter around. This car is very comfortable and reliable. I would recommend the Chevrolet Malibu LT to anyone who is looking for a comfortable car to drive on trips or long distance commutes.
