2013 Chevy Malibu Image Leaked!

Well, sort of. This single image was found on General Motors’ own media site yesterday, and gives a very good idea of what the eager crowd can anticipate when Chevy officially pulls the wraps off the 2013 Malibu in Shanghai. A definite contradiction with Chevy’s buttoned-down, teaser-riddled press releases of late, the early release of this image has caught many off guard, but the response seems to be nearly unanimous: a pretty bloody big improvement. Quite a handsome vehicle overall, the car looks to share many of its traits with other GM vehicles; such as the Silverado DNA that’s apparent in the hood, a Buick-like silhouette, and the taillights from a Camaro. However, the final verdict on how well it all comes together may have to wait until we see it from another angle.
