What’s New in the 2019 Chevy Malibu?

Freshened Exterior

The much-praised exterior styling of the Chevrolet Malibu is elevated by a few bold new flourishes for the 2019 model year. The freshened exterior of the 2019 Chevy Malibu makes this handsome vehicle even better looking and includes both three new paint options and a variety of updated details and features.

The new paint options for the Chevy Malibu include:

• Pacific Blue Metallic
• Northsky Blue Metallic
• Shadow Gray Metallic

The other exterior design changes include a new front fascia, new headlights, and new grille options. The top Premier trim also adds new LED headlights, helping you to see better at night as well as stand out on the road. These headlights are not available on any of the other trims, but that doesn’t mean the lower trims were neglected. All of the trims of the new Chevy Malibu do have new taillights with a sharp dual-element design, and both Malibu LT and Premier trims come standard with bright LED taillights (an optional feature on the Malibu Hybrid).

In addition to the refreshed styling, there is a notable change to an exterior feature for the 2019 Chevy Malibu – the buttons for the Keyless Open feature are no longer on the rear doors. However, if you need to access the back seat, the keyfob can still be used to remotely unlock all four doors at once.

If you’re in the market for a new Chevy, then it is time to take the refreshed 2019 Chevy Malibu out for a test drive!

Smoother Powertrain

There is only one change to the powertrain of the 2019 Chevy Malibu, but it’s an important one. The old six-speed automatic transmission that was previously found on Chevy Malibu models with the 1.5L engine has been replaced with a new continuously variable transmission (CVT). This transmission allows for smoother power delivery and greater efficiency. Once you get behind the wheel, you will immediately notice the lack of shifts as you smoothly accelerate, and you will likely find yourself spending less on gas as well.

A Thrilling New Package of Features

The most exciting change to the packages offered on the Chevy Malibu is the addition of the new RS package. This package further enhances the looks of the car with some sporty design elements and race-inspired features. These include:

• New 18-inch wheels
• Sporty black grille design
• Black bowtie badges
• Rear spoiler
• Dual exhaust
• Leather-wrapped gear lever and steering wheel
• Black cloth upholstery
• Standard 8-inch touchscreen

If you’re looking for an exciting new Chevrolet vehicle to cruise the streets of Indianapolis, the 2019 Chevy Malibu RS might just be your speed.

Enhanced Interior

The interior of the 2019 Chevy Malibu now has several design changes and new features. The new Dark Atmosphere and Light Wheat color combination is sure to be popular among drivers with a bold sense of style. However, you will find more than just style changes inside this midsize sedan.

The various new features include available heated rear outboard seats on the Chevy Malibu Premier trim level, keeping your backseat passengers comfortable through the winter. The old Chevrolet MyLink infotainment system has also been replaced with the new Chevrolet Infotainment 3 system, which may be the most important change to the cabin. Infotainment 3 brings the latest in smartphone integration, giving you more features at your fingertips.
