2012 Chevrolet Malibu will be developed with a 3.6 liter V6 engine that works with a 6-speed automatic transmission. With the low roof, bi-intake grille, chrome accents, and body color running board, the appearance of this vehicle is enhanced. The new sporty Malibu comes with an optional 2.4L 4 cylinder engine. This optional engine works with a four speed automatic transmission in both hybrid and standard versions. Both are featured with variable valve timing.
The discussion of sound system should not be neglected here. The system is featured with XM radio, CD player, AM/FM, MP3 capability, six speakers, and input jack. The audio system will not let down the fans of this vehicle. Those who are seeking for an audio system, which has a slightly more oomph, will be glad with this premium stereo system that comes traditional in 2012 Malibu LTZ along with a CD player, a powerful amplifier, MP3 capability, subwoofers, and eight speakers.The Bottom Line
Ford Fusion and Toyota Camry are the major competitors of 2012 Chevrolet Malibu. But, this vehicle will be lacking the major comfort standards such as multifunctional OnStar navigation system, a standard remote vehicle starter, shuttle services, and roadside assistance. In addition to the hybrid version, this vehicle will be available in five trim levels at affordable prices.
