Dependable and fun daily driver
By Da Bu on 5/11/2026 10:56:14 AM
Bought our 2017 Malibu Premier new and have been impressed ever since. Lots of power from the 2.0 Turbo along with confidence inspiring handling makes it enjoyable to drive, especially for a family sedan. Reliability wise we continue to be amazed by our bu, so far 1 set of tires, routine oil & filter changes, replacing the tire pressure sensors, and a battery replacement, that is it. - 5.0
Great Car For Value and Money
By Phillip on 4/19/2026 12:55:40 PM
In 2023, I bought my first brand-new car, which is the 1LT version. It has so far, been a wonderful car with the features I need/want for a reasonable price! I named it Betty (after Betty White, since the color is white). I hope to keep this car for years to come (with proper care and maintenance, of course). - 5.0
Love this car!
By Shae on 12/11/2025 4:39:42 AM
I absolutely love my 2023 Chevy Malibu! It feels like the perfect car for me, as it is comfortable, spacious, stylish, and offers a very balanced driving experience. I personally find the safety features to be solid, allowing for the driver to still have a uniquely engaging driving experience. Despite what other reviews suggest, I actually find it quite easy to accelerate and pick up speed in this vehicle, and I have fun driving it while still feeling safe. However, I can see how others could find it to be less powerful when compared to other midsize sedans. The heated seats work exceptionally, and the infotainment screen is very user friendly. I also love the remote start feature, especially during the Winter currently. I am loving this car, and looking forward to driving it more and more!
