    Efficient Power and Balanced Performance

    Under the hood, the 2025 Chevrolet Malibu FWD 1LT is powered by an ECOTEC 1.5L I-4 direct injection DOHC VVT intercooled turbo engine delivering 163 horsepower at 5700 rpm and 184 lb-ft of torque at 2500-3000 rpm. Paired with a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) and a 5.10 final drive ratio, this Front-Wheel Drive powertrain balances responsive acceleration with excellent efficiency, achieving an EPA-estimated 28 MPG city and 36 MPG highway. The chassis features an independent MacPherson strut front suspension and a 4-link rear suspension, complemented by gas-pressurized shock absorbers and front and rear anti-roll bars for a smooth ride. Braking control is provided by 4-wheel disc antilock Duralife brakes with StabiliTrak electronic stability control and all-speed traction control. Rolling on 19-inch machined aluminum wheels with painted accents and 245/40R19 all-season blackwall tires, this sedan balances ride quality with confident handling.
