Product Overview

Chevrolet Malibu VII is an affordable large sedan in production from 2008 to 2012. It is available with inline-4 and V6 engines from 2.4L to 3.6L.
The Chevrolet Malibu VII is limited to V6 engine, which requires an additional balance shaft and produces neither good sound, good torque, or good power response. The inline-4 powerplants are arguably even worse.
Further, the Gen7 Malibu is FWD-only, and its suspension setup is budget-oriented.
