The 2010 Chevrolet Malibu is here, and it’s returning with the value and affordability we’ve always offered in our mid-sized sedan. The Malibu uses its charm and good looks to attract the eye, but uses its ECOTEC 2.4L DOHC 16-valve, 4-cylinder engine to propel itself with 169 horsepower. The Malibu breezes by the streets, managing a fuel efficiency of 22 MPG city and 30 MPG highway.
Standard exterior equipment includes daytime running lamps, incandescent tail lamps, and 17” fascia spoke wheels. The gracious style and comfort of the Malibu is hard to resist. The interior features include a driver information center, 2 auxiliary power outlets, remote keyless entry with enhanced range.
Listen to music the way it’s meant to, through an excellent 6-speaker system, and commercial free, courtesy of a free 3-month subscription to XM Radio. Add on to that a 1-year service of OnStar’s Directions and Connections plan, which gives you roadside assistance, vehicle diagnostics and more services to grant you the ultimate convenience. The StabiliTrak control system, and the 4-wheel antilock brakes will help you prevent accidents by helping you maintain control.
The 2010 Chevrolet Malibu is a wonderful sedan that will give you dependable performance at an affordable price.

| Air bags, dual-stage frontal, and thorax side-impact, driver and front passenger, and head curtain side-impact - Front and rear outboard seating positions, includes Passenger Sensing System (Head curtain side air bags are designed to help reduce the risk of head and neck injuries to front and rear seat occupants on the near side of certain side-impact collisions.
