My wife was quite sad after I told her the Malibu has be canceled. She currently drives a 2017 Malibu Premier. The 2017 Premier came equipped with the 2.0 liter turbo LTG engine (hmm, what other car comes with this engine?) and a 9-speed transmission. It weighs ~3,300 lbs. The car has been reliable, comfortable to drive, and handles well due to the light weight. Fun fact: It is both faster 0-60 and 1/4 mile than my old 1988 Trans Am WS6 5.7L. I have caught many people driving much more expensive cars by surprise at the stop light while driving it. It will spin the front wheels in 1st and 2nd gear from a stop. You actually have to pedal it a bit to maintain traction before going full throttle.
