But imagine my surprise when I drove the car gently, with an eye toward better fuel economy: The Malibu Hybrid returned an impressive 35 mpg — that's 3 mpg better than its EPA ratings (24 city, 32 highway).

The Malibu is the first desirable midsize Chevrolet in decades. And a mild hybrid at a mild price is one more reason to put the Malibu on your shopping list.

More good stuff about the Malibu (this is also my first thread!).

And the reviews just keep on coming.

This car is everything it's cracked up to be, and that bodes well for the next version (2011 if memory serves?).

I would have been more suprised if this had been written by someone in Seattle, and not just printed in a local paper. People here seem to hate domestics so much.

Why shouldn't they? domestic brands have worked very hard over the past 30 years to make sure that they are hated.
