If you’re ready for a new car perfect for suburban and urban living, the 2025 Chevrolet Malibu is an exceptional option. This iconic sedan has a standard front-wheel drivetrain that’s designed for steady handling, reliable traction, and fuel-efficient performance.
The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine under the hood provides 163 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque for smooth urban performance. The standard continuous variable transmission maximizes eco-friendly performance by adjusting the gear ratios to reduce engine strain as you accelerate.
StabiliTrak is a standard mechanical feature, along with traction control and brake assist. The iconic StabiliTrak system enhances vehicle control by augmenting brake power and motor torque to ensure your vehicle stays on its intended path, while the traction control system can detect excess wheel spin on slick roads and reduce engine output to restore your control of the vehicle.
Infotainment and Connectivity
The Malibu comes with an eight-inch central display to host the Chevrolet Infotainment 3 system. This infotainment hub can sync up with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay so you can select your favorite podcasts, news shows, and navigation apps on the central display. The central multimedia system also supports Bluetooth connectivity so you can send texts or make phone calls hands-free while you drive.
With the standard OnStar Basics system, drivers can feel more confident on the road. Core convenience features via OnStar include a built-in voice assistant and remote vehicle commands via your smartphone. While you’re on the road, you can benefit from an automatic crash response system and real-time updates for traffic flow and navigation data.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Teen Driver is a standard safety system on the refreshed Malibu, making this sedan ideal for first-time drivers. With Teen Driver, certain safety systems are automatically activated when the Teen Driver key fob is used to operate the vehicle. This system mutes the audio system until front-row riders are safely buckled in and will also produce an in-vehicle report card to reinforce safe driving habits for drivers who are still learning the rules of the road.
An automatic emergency braking system, which functions between 5 and 50 MPH, is also standard. This system will either intervene with hard braking power when front-facing cameras detect an unavoidable collision, or it will boost braking power when you hit the brakes to mitigate an accident. A rear vision camera and rear parking sensors are also standard for this sedan. The Malibu is a fantastic option for teens or drivers who want to downsize to an eco-friendly option.
