Malibu Hybrid EXCEEDS Expectations!!

by Hawk from Antelope, CA on Tue May 22 2018

The 2018 Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid is proof positive that a Hybrid automobile need not be ugly. This vehicle has attractive styling inside and outside and features all of the amenities - Wifi, Bluetooth, Rear Vision Camera, Anti collision avoidance and much more. It has plenty of power and the braking is comparable to standard disc brakes. And best of all the range on 14 gallons is almost 700 miles!!

I cannot believe that Chevrolet is not shouting

by Chuck M- from Orem, Utah on Fri Jul 27 2018

I cannot believe that Chevrolet is not shouting from the rooftops that this is an excellent vehicle that gets fabulous mileage!! I average 48 + miles per gallon and this is a nice not so tiny car!! I have friends that have all these teeny tiny cars that get good mileage but they are so small and the ride is not very comfortable. This car is not as comfortable and plush as the Impala, but it is very, very nice in the big and safe categories. It is much more comfortable to ride in than a small car. This vehicle is also very peppy unlike many hybrid "foreign" cars.

Very good first impression

by Carman from New York on Mon Feb 19 2018

Malibu Hybrid is fairly well loaded and the price, net of rebates, creates an excellent value proposition. I have previously owned Lexus, Cadillac, and Buick. This car has attractive lines, a roomy interior and is very well equipped. I was attracted to the hybrid technology. At 400 miles the city driving is falling short of the EPA estimate of 49 MPG. My experience is in the 33-40 mpg range. Highway and mixed driving ranges from 40-46 mpg. Dealer insists that the car needs a 500-1000 miles break in period to reach EPA numbers. Overall, if you are looking for a very good ride in a nice package and you are not relying on your car to boost your self esteem this may be for you.

Forget the Prius and get the Malibu Hybrid.

by OC Hybrid Driver from Orange, California on Wed Oct 17 2018

This is the first hybrid I have ever purchased, but not the first I've ever driven. The Malibu hybrid is great for the price. The car has all the tech I need, rides well and quite, and handles better than expected. I do wish the seat belts could be adjusted up and down, for grab handles on the interior roof, and ac seats. A primer hybrid edition would also be great. (Are you listening Chevy?) Also if you want to achieve the stated MPG you should use cruise control whenever possible, and take it easy on the gas pedal. I would buy another one again without thinking twice.
