The 2025 Chevy Malibu is a practical, highly efficient car with smooth acceleration and a great deal of cabin and cargo space for its size. Let’s go over ten standout features of this popular midsize sedan.
Teen Driver Support
For any parent, it can be nerve-wracking when a teenage son or daughter starts driving. The Malibu’s teen driver support feature reduces this worry with performance report cards, stereo muting until seatbelts are on, and automatically activated safety features, which the Malibu has in abundance.
60/40 Split-Folding Rear Seat
The rear bench seat has 60/40 split-folding functionality. You can fold down one side or both at once, which extends the already ample 15.7-cubic feet of cargo space if you ever need to carry bulkier sports equipment or camping gear.
Excellent Gas Mileage
The Malibu’s drivetrain has been refined over several decades to become one of the most fuel-efficient vehicles in the midsize sedan segment. You’ll get 36 MPG on the highway and 28 MPG in the city, for an excellent average MPG of 31.
Advanced Safety Systems
Family drivers appreciate how safe the 2025 Malibu is. Standard features include automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, and front pedestrian braking. You also have a rear vision camera and rear park assist to prevent dings in the parking lot, plus an automatic tire pressure monitoring system.
Continuous Variable Transmission
Accelerating feels very smooth in the Malibu, thanks to a continuous variable transmission paired with a 1.5L Turbo 4-cylinder engine. The engine’s 184 lb-ft of torque and 163 horses are delivered seamlessly to the wheels as you speed up, without the jerkiness of gear changes.
Electronic Traction Control
Standard electronic StabiliTrak with traction control automatically stabilizes your Malibu and prevents wheel spin with micro-adjustments to torque and brake force. This is especially useful during Florida’s rainy season when the roads are wet.
Spacious Front Foot Wells
The Malibu has impressive legroom for a midsize sedan. In the front row, you have 41.5 inches in which to stretch your legs. The rear footwells and overall cabin space and headroom are also generous.
Sporty Back-Sloping Roofline
With the 2025 Malibu, you have a distinctively stylish car sitting in your driveway. The striking front grille and back-sloping roofline give it a confident, sporty aesthetic.
Downhill Engine Braking
When you’re driving down a slope, your brakes will be spared by the Malibu’s electronic grade braking. This feature automatically shifts to lower gears and uses engine braking to keep the speed steady.
