GM has announced that the next-generation 2016 Chevy Mailbu is going to debut at the upcoming New York Auto Show. GM says that the new Malibu has been “designed to deliver more efficiency, connectivity and advanced safety features than ever.”
The new Malibu will switch to a new platform and its wheelbase has been stretched nearly four inches to give it more rear legroom and interior space. The 2016 Malibu will also be 300 pounds lighter than the current model thanks to a higher-strength steel structure.

“Malibu’s gorgeous styling is the result of a masterful understanding of proportions,” said Ed Welburn, General Motors’ vice president of Global Design. “The roofline has been stretched rearward giving a more sleek profile, while the front wheels have moved forward and front and rear overhangs have been reduced. Along with the sculpted body side, these cues help Malibu appear more dynamic and sophisticated.”
