General Motors has made the Malibu unit as a car for everyone. The automobile is a constant presence for people who values practicality over style. Considering the evolutionary approach of retooling conventional cars, the need to redesign will be necessary if only to keep the Chevy sedan competitive in the current market.

The 2017 Chevrolet Malibu 2.0T introduces aficionados and buyers to a somewhat hard-hitting automobile. Here is a unit that assumes a tougher stance. The exterior outlook is framed with physical lines which make the car looks like it added some muscle.

Although the Chevrolet Malibu presents an image that resembles the Camaro, the Cadillac and the Buick, General Motors has made a point to institute a style that will directly challenge Japanese vehicles like the Hyundai Sonata, the Honda Accord and the Toyota Camry. Even with a 2-liter V-6 turbo engine that unloads 250hp under its hood, the unit remains fuel-efficient.

While the acceleration mechanism is quite subdued, the 2017 Chevrolet Malibu 2.0T is able to hit the 60mph mark within six seconds. Although slower, the gas consumption of the car is similar to what the Accord and the Camry guzzle. However, General Motors will be introducing an economically-driven Prius vehicle.

The Chevrolet Malibu has been launched to address space issues among buyers. At 111.4 inches, its wheelbase is longer than the Honda, the Toyota and even the Nissan Altima units. In addition, the car has also an extended length. What keeps the automobile more compelling is its 3,307-pound weight which is a lot lighter than its competitors.

In terms of accommodating passengers, a family of four gets a comfortable seating inside the 2017 Chevrolet Malibu 2.0T. Upfront, heated and ventilated seats are in place. A 15.8 cubic-foot compartment will handle the baggage needs.

Collective utility needs are easily addressed inside the Chevrolet Malibu with the presence of a wireless phone charger dock, rear-seat USB ports plus a 120-volt power outlet. Aside from the Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity, an OnStar 4G LTE with Wi-Fi is also available.
