This intermediate sedan needs no introduction. With many different versions available, it has a pretty broad appeal. Drivers should keep an eye out for the 2013 model in early 2012, as it will feature the first major modifications made to the Malibu in recent times. An Eco version will be offered to please buyers who want to make a greener choice. In the meantime, bargain-hunters may find good deals on the current model.
