2016 Chevrolet Malibu Bows in New York - Automobile
While he may have just coined a new verb, he does have a point: the 2016 Malibu is on a new iteration of General Motors’ Epsilon platform, with a longer, lower, and wider look. It has lower shock towers, a lower cowl, and a lower profile, Cafaro says, and has sheetmetal stretched out further to the wheels. ” Hyperbolic, for sure, though it describes a coherent design, sleek for a midsize family sedan, that should help you forget the frumpy, fractured 2013-15 Malibu, which faced the unenviable task of proceeding a much more impressive Malibu design... The new 2016 Chevrolet Malibu is 2. 3-inches longer overall, on a 3. 6-inch longer wheelbase, yet it weighs 300 pounds less than the uninspired car it replaces. So the new car’s 111. 4-inch wheelbase now is just 0. 3-inch shorter than the Chevy Impala’s, though its overall length of 193. 8 inches falls 7. 5-inches short of its full-size sibling. With the 3. 6-inch stretch in the wheelbase and with scooped-out front seatbacks, the new Malibu’s rear seat offers plenty of space and potentially, comfort, with just a tiny bit of knees-up passenger position thanks to the lower roofline.
