Chevy steps deeper into the land of the affordable mainstream hybrid

What We Think

Given that our Editors’ Choice Award for Best New Midsize Sedan recently went to the 2008 Chevrolet Malibu, it’s clear that we’re fans of GM’s newest Camry-fighter. This newest iteration has style and substance in excess, and is a true shining star for the Chevrolet brand. The Hybrid model, however, is less impressive and looks to be more of a tool with which GM is pumping up its eco-friendly campaign than a bona fide gas-sipping alternative. Regardless, improved fuel economy and cleaner emissions are to be applauded, as is the affordable price.
