Vehicle Description
2016 Chevrolet Malibu LT Sedan 4D — A Smartly Redesigned Midsize Standout
The 2016 Chevrolet Malibu LT Sedan 4D marks a turning point for Chevrolet. It brings a fully redesigned midsize sedan that feels lighter, more refined, and more engaging than before.
Built to compete with top sedans in its class, the Malibu LT is a smart daily driver. It offers strong turbo power, a roomy and quiet cabin, modern tech, and solid safety. For buyers seeking comfort without sacrificing responsiveness, the Malibu LT strikes an appealing balance.
Performance and Driving Dynamics
Under the hood, the 2016 Chevy Malibu LT has a strong 2.0L turbo DOHC 4-cylinder engine. It uses Spark Ignition Direct Injection (SIDI).
This engine delivers 250 horsepower at 5,300 RPM. It also produces 260 lb-ft of torque from 2,000 to 5,000 RPM. Paired with a smooth 8-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive, the Malibu accelerates quickly. It also makes passing on the highway easy.
On the road, the Malibu LT feels more athletic than many drivers expect from a midsize sedan. Sporty handling in turns gives it a planted, confident feel.
Strong four-wheel disc brakes with ABS add confidence in sudden stops. Despite its responsive feel, the ride stays refined and smooth. It absorbs road bumps well and keeps long drives comfortable and relaxing.
Fuel Efficiency and Everyday Practicality
Performance doesn’t come at the expense of efficiency. The 2016 Malibu LT earns EPA fuel economy estimates of about 22 MPG in the city. It gets about 33 MPG on the highway. The combined rating is about 28 MPG.
With a fuel tank capacity of about 15.8 gallons, the Malibu offers a solid driving range. It works well for daily commutes and longer road trips. For a sedan producing 250 horsepower, these numbers remain competitive and appealing.
Interior Space and Comfort
One of the Chevy Malibu’s strongest advantages is its interior space. Thanks to its redesign, the cabin is significantly larger, quieter, and more comfortable than previous models.
Tall drivers will like the front seats. They offer plenty of headroom and supportive cushioning. Rear-seat passengers also get ample legroom. This makes it a truly comfortable sedan for five passengers.
The seating layout has front bucket seats, a rear bench with pass-through access, and a power driver’s seat. The driver’s seat also has lumbar support. Soft-touch materials, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and smart ergonomics create an upscale feel that beats segment expectations. Road and wind noise are well suppressed, adding to the overall sense of refinement.
Technology and Connectivity
The 2016 Chevy Malibu LT shines when it comes to technology. At the center of the dashboard is a responsive and intuitive 8-inch touchscreen running Chevrolet’s MyLink infotainment system. Known for sharp graphics and a user-friendly interface, the system supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. This enables seamless smartphone integration for navigation, calls, music, and messaging.
Additional tech features include Bluetooth, a Wi-Fi hotspot, satellite radio, AM/FM stereo, and MP3 support. It also has an auxiliary input and available navigation through the telematics system.
Steering wheel audio controls make it easy to adjust sound while you drive. Keyless entry and push-button start save time. Remote engine start lets you start the car from a distance. Power windows and power locks make daily driving more convenient.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Safety is another major highlight of the 2016 Malibu LT. It earned a 5-star safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). This highlights its strong crash-test performance. Standard and available safety features are extensive and designed to provide peace of mind.
