The Malibu line of cars from Chevrolet have been in production since 1964 with a small break in the mid 1980's through to the mid 1990's.

The first generation model was available as a sedan, hardtop, convertible or even a station wagon, a tradition they kept until the re-release in the mid 1990's.

The 1997 revival of the Malibu car saw less of a sporty looking versatile platform and more of a generic family car style car.

Most generations of the car were only available with automatic transmissions though the range of engines were usually vast for customers to choose from.

The 2018 Chevrolet Malibu is an example of the most recent generation (the 9th) of redesign and is built on the same platform as the Buick Regal and Cadillac XT4.

Buyers of the this 9th generation model have the option of a hybrid drive-train that features 2 electric motors and a CVT transmission.

The 2018 Malibu hybrid is not a plug-in so it works by capturing the lost energy from braking and using that to assist acceleration.

This owner's manual opens up to a clickable contents page that takes you to the page you need quickly after the cover page.

An "In Brief" chapter is great for quickly finding the name of the part of the car that is causing you problems, very useful if you have recently purchased your Malibu.
