Chevy steps deeper into the land of the affordable mainstream hybrid
Why it Matters
In just the past few weeks, gas prices have risen dramatically, and if you’re a commuter all that coin spent at the pump can become a headache. For that reason and others, more shoppers are considering one of the many hybrid models hitting the streets, and Chevy’s hoping they’ll look at the Malibu version when it hits lots this month. Based on the award-winning redesigned midsize sedan, the Malibu Hybrid returns and estimated 32 mpg highway and starts at just $22,790, making this mainstream Chevy an affordable and efficient alternative to statement-making vehicles like the Prius.
