What Edmunds Says

Roomy, affordable and well equipped, the Malibu delivers excellent value but lacks some of the performance and refinement of the class leaders.

Pros

Pros: Smooth ride quality, above-average fuel economy with V6, plenty of passenger and cargo space, ample safety and convenience features, innovative remote start feature.

Cons

Lackluster interior, subpar brakes and steering, down on power compared to competitors, no manual transmission available.
