As cactus-laden sunsets and the inevitable call to explore the wild spreads through the Tucson metro like wildfire, the urge to have an awesome new midsize car will move many. Loading up a few buddies or loved ones and cruising for fun in this 9T50 nine-speed automatic will be a pleasure for anyone who gets behind the wheel of the new Chevy Malibu sedan. The new transmission is a replacement for the 8-speed automatic that is behind the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine that packs a punch. New for this year are some well-adjusted trim features, some new exterior color choices, and a new Sport package.
Comparing it to last year's version, the horsepower is still right at 250, but the torque has increased by 2 to a final rating of 260 lb per foot. We guarantee that its gonna feel quicker than last year's while navigating city streets, and the extra gear in the transmission will make a noticeable difference. When you are looking at a punch and ultra-modern sedan such as the new Malibu, reports straight from the track are one inclination of how a vehicle will truly behave when you want to get to business and open it up. The 2.0-liter turbo version will hit 60 MPH in about 5.7 seconds, and will quickly conquer the quarter mile at just under 100 MPH in around 3.4 seconds.
This is a full .5 second faster in the quarter-mile than last year's model, and what you really have with this color is a model that does what many were not focusing on a decade ago or so: being able to handle any commute while truly ripping around with a bit of an edge. Increases in the fuel-saving game are one commodity that many drivers are looking for before the summer months, when prices may edge up a bit for gas. This model boasts an increase of 1mpg for the highway rating above last year's, at a time when many will appreciate what increases they can get.
Some reviews of drivers that have taken the new Malibu through locations like the canyon have billed it as "soft-sprung", but the overall tightness in handling in durability you get is right on the money for the pricing point. This is an optimal ride for a trip lugging four around, and everyone will be sure to have ample room. Hitting the road to Sabino Canyon or yearning for the desert breeze will be perfect reasons for you to hop in your New Malibu: it's a vehicle that offers Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity, along with OnStar 4g LTE to make sure the internet signal continuously thrives in your mobile domain. You'll also enjoy other higher-than-standard features like wireless phone charging, handy dual rear-seat USB ports, and an outlet that supplies 120 volts of power.
If you are looking for an above-average entry in the 4-door department that will make you passionately look forward to the next time you do anything from running errands to showing up for the first day at the new job, you'll love the feel of the new Malibu. If you happen to find yourself at a loss for directions for any reason, the Chevrolet MyLink will supply you with stellar navigation, along with an 8-inch touchscreen, as well as Bluetooth phone and audio. The most positive points on here have to do with fuel efficiency, being awesome in many ways in the get up and go category, and this vehicle having the reliability and prowess of a brand that many have trusted for decades. Don't hesitate to find out how the staff here at O'Rielly Chevrolet can get you situated into the new Malibu, and see to it that spring has you celebrating by snagging up an amazing new ride.
