When minded about keeping it mellow on the road acceleration and speed wise, it does deliver a good gas mileage on long hauls. see full Chevrolet Malibu review
2008 4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
In town is only OK...maybe 22-24 MPG. On the highway on level stretches, 42-43 MPG is very common. 16 gallon fuel tank give you plenty of travel range on the highway. see full Chevrolet Malibu review
