Kbb.com Expert Rating
You'll Like This Car If...
If you’ve been wanting to come back to a domestic sedan, but felt the quality, styling and features just weren’t there, the 2012 Chevrolet Malibu is your ticket back to the good old days. Long-legged occupants will appreciate the Malibu’s generous legroom both front and rear.
You May Not Like This Car If...
If you’re all about cutting-edge electronics, the 2012 Chevrolet Malibu sedan falls a bit short of the mark. Those who prefer the fun of driving a manual-transmission car will be better served by a Honda Accord, Kia Optima or Ford Fusion.
