Standard equipment in the Malibu for 2007 and 2008 includes the 2.4 liter engine by General Motors, weighing in at 4 cylinders and sixteen valves. A 4-speed Automatic Transaxle puts the power of the Ecotec engine to the pavement. This is a long-standing favorite for buyers in the Sedan arena.

Steering control is handled through a power-steering rack-style configuration. The Malibu comes equipped with power-assisted brakes, with 4-Wheel ABS support. The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are disc. The car uses coil front springs and coil in the rear.

Vehicle Statistics

The Malibu is 191.80 inches long, 70.30 inches wide, and 57.10 inches high. It has a wheelbase of 112.30 inches. It is able to seat 5 comfortably.

There is a 36,000 mile, 36 month warranty with this vehicle, including a powertrain warranty of 100,000/60 miles/months. This is normal for this price range.

The listed retail price in 2008 (MSRP) was $20,630, with a dealer invoice cost of $19,495. This price is on target the industry average price for a four-door Sedan.

Fuel Efficiency

The fuel system for the 2008 Malibu is a traditional SFI, running on ELECTRIC/GAS fuel. The fuel is controlled by an electronic system and is a fuel-injected MFI design. The capacity of the fuel tank is 16.00 gallons.

The Malibu Hybrid received a miles-per-gallon rating of twenty two in-city driving and thirty when it came to highway driving. Being a electric/gas-powered green car, this was exceptional.

We Think...

The 2008 model year was telling year for the Chevrolet Malibu. The introduction of several trim levels (along with the Hybrid version) meant that buyers could find the version that best suited their needs.
