While American sedans keep dropping like flies, Chevrolet continues to sell the Malibu in Canada, though the end is near for this once popular midsize model. When it comes to engine selection, LS, RS and LT models feature a turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder producing 160 horsepower. The top-line Premier model houses a turbocharged 2.0-litre mill rated at 250 horsepower. Unlike some competitors that offer AWD, the Malibu comes with FWD only.
