2013 Chevrolet Malibu, the first photo of Motor Trend and video

Below is a video that Motor Trend presents the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu from every angle. First, this sporty looking car is based on the Epsilon platform 2 of the Buick Regal, its wheelbase is 11.4 cm down from the outgoing model. Despite this space in the cockpit is growing due to increased width of 6.9 cm, the car is between the Toyota Camry and Ford Fusion (less spacious) and the Honda Accord and Hyundai Sonata (more spacious). Under the hood we find a 2.5-liter 190 horsepower and 244 Nm of torque or 2.4-liter 180 horsepower and 230 nm associated with the system HSAS 15 horses. Both engines are associated with BVA6. It displays a minimum consumption of 6.19 L/100 km and a maximum of 9.05 L/100 km. The 2.5-liter promises a figure lower than 7.84 L/100 km highway. The rates should be in a range between 23 and 30 K $. Mark Moussa, head of global engineering at GM, is far from closing the door to the RS and SS versions for the Malibu, the first could embark on 2-liter 220 horsepower in the Buick Regal Turbo, the second that of 270 horses of the GS.
