0

Staying mostly unchanged for this year again, we can expect some new things to be there in the 2022 Chevrolet Malibu model series of compact sedans. Among all the minor changes that we get to see this time, the most important one will be the elimination of the earlier base trim from the lineup. On the other hand, there will be an additional package of safety and drive-assistance that will control the parking brake electronically and the inclusion of a couple of new color options for the exterior paint.

The 2022 model year edition of the Chevrolet sedan series Malibu will be reduced to only four trims from five, which we have seen for the previous year model. Hence, you have to choose from LS, RS, LT, and Premier, where things will keep getting better as you climb higher the trim levels. With all these attributes up on its sleeves, the 2022 Chevrolet Malibu models are now ready to give its rivals like Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, and Hyundai Sonata, a tougher challenge in the market of compact sedans, explained the sales in-charge of the Kimberly Chevrolet dealer.

The 2022 Chevy Malibu as a midsize sedan also has an impressive record of performance. For this, Chevrolet has selected a turbocharged four-cylinder engine that can raise 160 hp when paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission.

Across the entire lineup of the 2022 Chevrolet Malibu, the range-topping Premier trim is allowed to be loaded with the bigger-sized turbocharged four-cylinder engine that can thrust 250 horsepower. In addition to all the other features we have mentioned above, Chevrolet has some extra optional packages that are mainly made of several advanced safety features as well as sophisticated styling updates for the exterior like the Redline, Midnight, and Sport Edition. Apart from these Chevrolet has chosen many more features for the standard feature package. One can get the 19″ aluminum wheels painted in Black, and all-season tires.

The 2022 Chevrolet Malibu the lowest trim form is powered by a turbocharged 1.5-liter inline-4 engine, which is rated at 160 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque when the engine is tied with continuously variable transmission and gearshifts. The more powerful 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 power variant is capable of squeezing out 250 hp and 260 lb-ft. after the engine is paired with an 8-speed automatic gearbox, but this combination is exclusively available only on the Premier trim. Power is sent only to the front wheels by this gearbox as per the standard configuration.

As a Family Sedan Choice

With the same power configurations loaded onboard, the base powertrain of the 2022 Chevrolet Malibu takes only 7.8 seconds to reach the speed of 60 mpg from a combined journey of both city and highway drives. All these attributes of appearance, performance, comfort and luxuries combined in the 2022 Chevrolet Malibu sedan surely creates a strong impact on the minds of the onlookers. The overall reliability that every 2022 Malibu can bring to its users also encourages them to drive one home and take up more frequent off-road adventures for sure, commented a senior executive of the Kimberly Chevy dealer.
