The 2023 Chevrolet Malibu has proved to be a class-leading car in the mid-sized sedan market. There are many reasons for its success, but one of the principal ones is the number of standout features the vehicle possesses across various trim levels. Below we consider six of the most impressive of these.
Fuel Efficiency
The 2023 Malibu is fitted with a highly responsive 1.5L turbo engine, which has a number of major attributes. One of these is its outstanding fuel efficiency and range. It can provide up to 27 mpg for everyday city driving, which extends to up to 35 mpg when you move on to the open roads. Coupled with a 15.8-gallon tank, you can get up to 553 miles between fuel stops.
Power Adjustable Driver’s Seat
Being comfortable when you drive improves the whole driving experience, especially if you are on a long journey. The 8-way power driver seat with power lumber takes comfort levels to new highs. Available on all but the LS model, it provides a fingertip control panel on the side of the chair to make adjusting it to find the perfect driving position simple.
IntelliBeam Headlights
Driving at night requires heightened attention and having to constantly switch between high and low beams to accommodate other traffic is tedious. IntelliBeam allows the vehicle to manage the switching process by sensing oncoming vehicles or the taillights of vehicles ahead to prevent you from unintentionally dazzling other road users.
Front Pedestrian Braking
Safety is also a top priority, and one especially valuable piece of technology is the Front Pedestrian Braking feature. It works alongside the Forward-Collision Alert, using sensors in the back of the rearview mirror to detect if a pedestrian has unexpectedly appeared in front of you. It provides a series of visual and audible warnings and, if necessary, will apply emergency brakes.
Infotainment Panel
Technology is again at the forefront of the provision of information and entertainment. The Malibu comes with a gorgeous 8-inch color touchscreen that incorporates the Chevrolet Infotainment 3 or 3 Plus System, depending on the model. The panel provides wireless Apple and Android integration, Bluetooth connection to allow two-device streaming, and voice command functionality.
Alexa Built-In
The infotainment system also provides access to Alexa Built-In. With this, you can leverage the power of Alexa Skills to deliver information or to carry out your task request using voice commands. It can play you music, provide news or even remotely turn on your home’s lights, ready for your return. If you know how to create your own skills, these too can be accessed through your Alexa account, adding even more functionality.
These standout features help set the Malibu apart, but they are only just the start. If you take a more in-depth look at the vehicle firsthand, you will find many more. So, come and visit us at Jim McKay Chevrolet in Fairfax, VA today, and we will show you the 2023 Malibu in more detail.
