Bold Styling
The 2021 Chevrolet Malibu is available in five trim levels, the L, LS, RS, LT, and Premier. The L comes in seven unique paint colors, such as Black Cherry Metallic and Summit White. The chrome accents and black grille on the L are sure to turn heads as you pass drivers.
The LS features 16-inch aluminum wheels, an acoustic laminated windshield, and power outside mirrors. A standard rear spoiler adds to the eye-catching design of the RS. Body-colored heated power-adjustable outside mirrors and 17-inch wheels come standard on the LT. Finally, the Premier upgrades to body-colored heated outside mirrors with integrated indicators for turn signaling.
Power and Performance
You have a couple of options when it comes to the engine that powers the 2021 Malibu. The first is a standard 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers up to 160 horsepower and is found in the L, LS, RS, and LT. The Premier offers a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers a powerful 250 horsepower for more get-up-and-go.
