This Year's Model Updates:

Like the regular Chevrolet Malibu, the hybrid version is all-new for 2008.

Pros:
  • Stylish inside and out, comfortable seats, good fit and finish, smooth ride, hushed cabin.
Cons:
  • Electric motor provides negligible fuel economy benefits, mediocre acceleration, hit-or-miss cabin materials, no rear center armrest, lifeless steering, high emissions rating for a hybrid car.

  • Not Worth 2 Cents - 2008 Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid
    By -

    This car is terrible. It is poorly designed, unreliable, and awful to drive. There is no internal mechanisms to repair a moderately damaged tire: no donut, no jack, no wrench, no spare. The trunk space is minimal and sub-par at best. Good luck fitting anything in it- it requires the packing skills of an engineer. The car stalls upon starting and stopping, and the alert screen below the dash frequently displays false alarms of tire pressure, etc. If youre looking for a cheap car, even this is not worth the hassle. Buy a 1992 Camry, it is far likely to be better designed than this.
