- Hey Guys! This is my honest review of the 2024 Chevy Malibu LT! In this video I talk about what my first impressions were driving the Malibu for the first few days and my likes and dislikes about the car. I go through the 2024 Malibu's interior, features and drive it around giving it honest feedback on how it stands as America's last economy sedan!
Got my 2022 1LT and absolutley love it from day 1
I have the Chevrolet Malibu Premier. It's a higher trim and little bigger engine. I love my Malibu Premier! I love Chevrolet period. Thanks for sharing.
@@waynesingleton3566 thanks for watching and sharing your feedback too!
I bought the 2.0 liter full trim and it's surprisingly great for the value
Just bought mine yesterday, silver 2022 love it!
Love my LS model. Ive had mine for about a month. It has blind spot monitor. Bought a $5 sunglass holder on amazon. Stereo had android auto, so i hook up youtube music and its wireless, never have to get my phone out. I love my bu!!
We are shopping for a new car. My wife loves the Malibu. We just made the last payment on our used 2016 Cruise. We overheated on Monday halfway to our vacation destination. We had to stay at a Days hotel and the car was $ 1,258. to repair. I read up on the Cruse and overheating seems to be a big problem with them. I’ve had Impala’s since 1967. Love Chevy to death. Had two Pontiac’s also but still G.M. I rode my 1999 Tracker to 139.000 then gave it away. The engine was still great. My 2003 Impala was the best ever. That big3.8 six just preformed wonderfully until I retired. 111.000 was the odometer when I parked her. It sat for three years and had to give it away. That car was absolutely perfect and didn’t deserve a death like I gave her. My gf bought the Cruse and my baby just sat……😢hopefully some kid grabbed her?? That engine has gone to 300.000 on some cars. Best engine Chevy ever built! Chevy Rocks!
I have a 2016 Malibu and they haven’t changed the dash board at all. The console is the same as well. The only thing that has changed is the price.
Gotta have that leg room in the Chevys
I’m thinking about getting one of these because it seems simple and I like the look; however, everyone online seems to say it’s “unreliable”, which makes me worried.
Good review of an under-appreciated car.
@@WNYfellow thank you!!
Just bought ine. Has blind spot monitor on the RS
Honestly a shame it doesn't have blind spot monitor because it's so nice on a bike just seeing that little light pop up just to give you a feeling that maybe people will see you just a little bit more
I know it’s scary out there for sure man you gotta ride defensively at all times unfortunately. 🏍️💨
1LT does have blind spot monitor
This is currently the only American FWD sedan still in production and it’s planned to end production this November. Compare that to the 1980s when many such vehicles entered production and they continued until the late 2010s when the options were reduced to only this model. Sadly, this may be everyone’s last chance to get such a vehicle brand new. Because many foreign brands offer a large selection of cheap sedans and many Americans prefer SUVs over sedans, the odds of any American brand ever investing in a new sedan ever again are slim to none, except for the 4-door sedan variant of the Ford Mustang which Ford has officially considered but that’ll almost certainly be RWD-only. So this is it, everyone’s last chance to get a brand new American FWD sedan before the window is closed forever, thus marking the end of an era.
Wow! That's a very informative and interesting comment! I agree with everything you said and appreciate you taking the time to add your piece of advice and knowledge!
@@BrannAutoMedia When there’s excessively limited options for a type of car, it’s way too easy to pay extra attention in detail like this and explain them to car enthusiasts.
@@BrannAutoMedia BTW, this only includes ICE-powered models. Not only that, only vehicles with a proper sedan body are counted. So, for example, while the upcoming Dodge Charger will be ICE-powered and not just electric, it will be a liftback with a tailgate unlike its predecessor so it won’t be a true sedan anymore. After the Malibu is discontinued, the only American ICE-powered true sedans in production will be the Cadillac CT4 and CT5.
@@BrannAutoMedia I almost forgot, there are several American sedans that are sold only in foreign markets, such as the Ford Mondeo, Lincoln Zephyr, Buick Regal etc. and all of those particular models are FWD. But obviously, they don’t count because they’re not available to buy here.
I have a 2022 only 5,000 miles on it going to try to keep it as close to mint as possible. Hand washed and waxed at home.Never been touched by a mom & pop mechanic dealer serviced with Ac Delco parts only. Well oil/filter because so far that's all it's had done.
My 22 malibu has been great ...i change oil every 4k and have already done a drain and fill on cvt
I bought a 24 RS recently. Really comfortable and I still like the looks of it even though the style is somewhat obsolete. Nice to be back in a sedan after owning a few cramped subcompact suv’s
thanks I was just about ready to switch to the "subcompact SUV" glad I didn't
Listen to The Beast- Power Metal e.p. Turn it up- Turn it loud!
I have a 20 LT and it looks exactly the same except I have the better led rear lights. Lol
Just ordered my 2024 midnight edition. Can't wait. Looking into some basic mods. Any recommendations? Thinking side skirts. Spoiler
No sunglass holder. No good place to put your phone. I still bought one. 6k off
I noticed that too! Was kind of disappointed about that as well!
@@BrannAutoMedia the paint is nice. I got a red RS for my daughter. She is getting great gas mileage and live the way it drives.
Where'd you put your phone and any pointers on haggling 6k off the price?
Has it on the LS too. Just got 1.
My 2022 LS doesn't have it, but mine came with a spare tire, which was nice.
Since it’s been largely unchanged for the last few years, where does it fall in the category of reliability?
Been driving my Malibu LS for almost 3 years now. Over 18k miles and the car gave me zero issues. No maintenance required other than regular oil change.
@@joro7304 Thank you! It seems like a great value.
I bought a used '21 malibu LT. I'm very perplex with the small turbo engine and the CVT to keep it beyond 100K. But, I went to a GM dealer for an oil change and ask the service guy if they have trouble with these. He replied these cars are "ultra-reliable" and they've never replaced an engine or a trans. I took it with a grain of salt but he had no reason to fool me since I didn't buy the car there and it's no longer made.
nice,,, does it have those fake shifts on the cvt ?
My '21 doesn't have fake shifts and works great. No comparison to a Nissan CVT, day and night.
I heard that the 1.5 L Turbo engines are bad
If you want racing car, yes. But for a normal commuter car with regular maintenance, no.
