That was so Cool weh we found this car on Internet , 2012 CHEVROLET MALIBU SPY SHOTS,
General Motors is completing up the progress of the 2012 Chevrolet Malibu (to be marketed as Epica in other markets), and this almost-done prototype gives us a very good glimpse as to what's in store for the all-new 'Bu.
2012 CHEVROLET MALIBU SPY SHOTS,
The Malibu will ride on the shortened version of GM's Epsilon II podium – the architecture that underpins both the Buick Regal along with LaCrosse – though our spies note that the new car seems to be a bit more time and larger than the model currently on sale. Chevy's signature Bowtie grille is definitely nicely incorporated into a decidedly LaCrosse-inspired front end, but most of us aren't quite sure how we feel about the Camaro-like taillamps and longer rear deck. Still, we'll wait until the camouflage is definitely stripped away in advance of making final judgments.
Following Korea's cause with the Hyundai Sonata, GM is definitely expected to only offer four-cylinder powertrains in the 2012 Malibu, hence look for the two a naturally aspirated COUPLE OF. 4-liter and turbocharged 2. 0-liter engine to be on tap. Additionally, a hybrid configuration is reportedly in the works, as is all-wheel drive.
Production is scheduled to kick off at the end of this year, so we're wagering that the Malibu will officially debut at the New York Auto Show next month. Click through our high-res image gallery below to see the latest set of spy shots on your own.
