Late night embargo breach: 2008 Chevrolet Malibu

Don’t know what the hell’s going on today but here’s another broken embargo. We solemnly swear that we had nothing to do with the Chevrolet Malibu breach. Don’t believe us? Take a peek-a-boo at Edmunds Insideline, that’s where we got the pics.


Design-wise, apart from Avalanche, Tahoe etc. inspired front end, cant’ say that I ‘m in to it as Chevy designers seem to have borrowed (unsuccessfully if you ask me) styling cues from here and there –eg. the VW Jetta rear window line and the Infiniti G35 tail lamps. The interior on the other hand is simple but nicely conceived.

Based on GM’s Epsilon platform that's used among others, on the Saturn Aura, Opel Vectra and Saab 9-3, Chevy’s "wanna beat the damn Camry" mid-sized sedan will be offered initially with two engines, a base 2.4 litre 4cylinder Ecotec pumping out 164Hp and a 252Hp strong 3.6 V6. We'll have more on the Malibu when GM decides to dis-embargo it officially… Via: Edmunds Insideline
