Safety, fuel efficiency, and good infotainment features are some of the most important factors to consider when buying a new car. The 2022 Chevy Malibu offers all three and more. This vehicle, which has been sold since 1964, is a popular option for people in the city and the suburbs. Let’s have a closer look at why so many drivers love their Malibu.

1. The Wealth of Choice 

When you come to the dealership to pick out your new Malibu, the sales team will ask you what features you need and what you want your car to look like. There are currently four trims available: The LS, the RS, the LT, and the Premier. While every Malibu is great, the higher trims offer some additional features that could make a big difference to drivers who spend a lot of time on the road.

For example, the LT has LED daytime running lights, a remote engine start, and heated front seats. You can also add extra packages to your car, such as the Driver Confidence I and Driver Confidence II sets. They can make your ride smoother, and they’ll help you to feel more confident on the road.

2. The Great Infotainment Features 

Every new Malibu you buy comes with a state-of-the-art touchscreen that can be connected to Android Auto or Apple CarPlay. There is also a mobile wifi hotspot for drivers who would like to stay connected to the internet while in their car. Many Malibu owners report that the infotainment options this vehicle offers aren’t just extensive, they are also easy to set up and use.

3. The Fuel Efficiency 

With gas prices rising rapidly, more and more people are looking for a car that won’t use up large amounts of fuel. This is especially true for those who have a long work commute or parents who drive their kids from one activity to the next. The Chevy Malibu is a good choice for anyone who would like to save on gas because the engine is efficient. 


According to the US Department of Energy, the 1.5L engine is the most environmentally friendly option because it gets 32 mpg combined. Drivers can expect to get 29 mpg in the city and 36 mpg on the highway. Even the 2.0L engine is more efficient than the average car in the US, with a combined mpg of 26.

4. The Extensive Warranty

The vast majority of Malibu users don’t encounter any problems with their car in the first years. But in case there is an issue, you are well protected. The standard warranty lasts for three years or 36,000 miles, whatever comes first. There is also a 5-year or 60,000-mile powertrain warranty, and the first maintenance appointment at the dealership is complimentary. 
More and more people are choosing compact cars because it’s more fuel efficient. This is good for both the environment and the car owner’s wallet, especially as fuel prices continue to rise. The Chevy Malibu is an excellent choice for singles, couples, and small families. Send us a message now at Chevrolet of Ottawa to find out more and to book your test drive.
