Eye-catching Looks

The name Malibu, named for the picturesque coastal California town, evokes style and sophistication. The Malibu’s design has always met this expectation, and the 2025 iteration is no exception. The sleek exterior design immediately draws attention. The eye-catching aesthetic is augmented by the Malibu’s standard 16-inch aluminum wheels and distinctive halogen headlamps.

The already attractive exterior can be further enhanced on higher trims with the available special edition packages. The Redline edition, for example, boasts 19-inch black-painted aluminum wheels with red hash marks and 19-inch all-season blackwell tires. The Redline edition also sports an aggressive blacked-out grille, jet black interior, black bowtie emblems on the front and rear, and a black Malibu badge accented with a red outline.

A Comfortable Ride With Chevy Performance

Every configuration of the Malibu has a 1.5-liter Turbo four-cylinder engine that drives the vehicle’s front wheels through a Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT). This powertrain delivers a respectable 163 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque, which easily meets the needs of a midsize family sedan.

The engine power translates into a comfortable ride that borders on sporty, thanks to the responsive MacPherson strut front suspension and the StabiliTrak electronic stability and traction control system.

A Comfortable, Understated Interior

The cabin of the 2025 Malibu is comfortable and ergonomic. Generous space ensures comfort for all passengers, and the 15.70 cubic feet of trunk volume provides ample storage. The 60/40 split-folding rear bench seat allows a lot of versatility for carrying cargo and passengers.

Six-way manual driver and front passenger seats offer exceptional comfort, and the whole interior offers an air of modern sophistication thanks to premium cloth seat trims.

Smart Technology Throughout

An 8.0-inch touchscreen display is the heart of the Malibu’s modern infotainment system. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come as standard, allowing you to link compatible devices with the vehicle’s system. Wi-Fi hotspot capability also comes as standard. The driver information center delivers vehicle information and notifications at your fingertips and lets you personalize your experience based on your preferences.

Modern automotive technology also powers a comprehensive suite of safety and driver assistance features. The 2025 Malibu comes equipped with Chevy Safety Assist as standard, providing peace of mind on the road thanks to features like:

  • Automatic emergency braking
  • Lane keep assist with lane departure warning
  • Forward collision alert
  • Front pedestrian braking
  • Following distance indicator
