2014 Chevrolet Malibu announced

Chevrolet has unveiled a few days ago the 2014 Malibu facelift which will be going on sale this fall. On the outside we can see that the sedan has gained more chrome trim and a more prominent front grille, while on the inside it has a brand new center console sporting two cell phone holders and a longer armrest. We should also mention the new front seats and an updated rear bench featuring better cushion material.

Chevrolet will be offering the 2014 Malibu with a new 4-cylinder, 2.5-liter engine featuring stop/start which should enable the sedan to return 23 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway.
