Interior Design and Special FeaturesThe 2011 Chevrolet Malibu features a curvaceous dual-cowl dash design up front, emphasized strikingly by a couple of available two-tone interior color options. Control layout is simple and straightforward, and plenty of insulation and the use of acoustically laminated glass contribute to a serene driving experience.The front seats are comfortable and pleasantly supportive. The trunk offers 15.1 cubic feet of capacity.Driving ImpressionsThe four-cylinder engine achieves its frugal efficiency in part due to the use of an electric steering system. This is a good one, and several automobile writers preferred the four-cylinder and its electric-assist steering. Mated to the now-standard six-speed automatic, even the fuel-efficient four-cylinder Malibu delivers enough power and response for most buyers.
