2016 Chevrolet Malibu Review - 1.5L and 2.0L Turbo Engines

[@bryantmatthews9275]

The 1.5 has no take off but speed isn't bad once it get rolling the 2.0 turbo is beast

[@Llggd]

That 2.0 turbo surprised me in my 2004 Grand Prix gtp comp g. He had no chance trying to pass me up a 3 mile steep grade though. His small turbo 4 banger was struggling why my supercharged V6 kept chugging away past 120mph 😆

[@ramirovigil4634]

I own a 16 malibu Premier 2.0 with 69,000 miles on it i have to say it's a great car!! And most deffently a sleeper.

[@bmwmsport11]

55% of teenagers don't wear seat belts in the passenger seat? That's outrageous. Everybody has to wear the seatbelt in the passenger or else I'll pull over in the middle of nowhere and kick them out.

[@MrTheHillfolk]

I always wore mine, still do. I know how I drive lol like a nut!! It's just drilled into me.... I usually reach for it by instinct even when moving my car 20ft in the driveway ;)

[@mcspikesky]

+iibrahim264 Beest way to not have injuries in your car is to not wear your seatbelt and die outright. Seatbelts big cause of broken collarbones and bruises.

[@0RichBoy0]

+bmwmsport11 I had to yell at my friend to get her to wear it and it's a convertible too. Damn kids these days!

[@antiatrophy72890]

good for you! seriously. I thought I was the only one that forced my passengers to wear a seatbelt. I would always tell them that if we got in an accident there head hitting the windshield would make a huge mess.

[@Emilthehun]

I was a teenager who didn't have a seatbelt on. Went straight through the windshield and stent 3 years recovering. Also did buy the "underwhelming 1.5t" Malibu fully loaded. And yes its underwhelming. But an awesome car to drive. And it will do a 100 mph.. eventually

"yeah it's underwhelming" 😂😂 I died

[@EngineeringExplained]

I mean all things considered, it's totally fine. I wouldn't say the acceleration of any base model mid-size is thrilling. And for those who want it, the 2.0 twin-scroll is solid.

[@Protect1n2]

Just got the 2018 w the 1.5 and I thought it was underwhelming as well. I do think I can optimize it in manual mode a bit more, but I did buy it for the wife. I’m curious if there will be many aftermarket turbo enhancements other mods come out for the 1.5...hmm

[@endtimeswriter]

I was not even aware the Malibu was still in production till I saw a coworker with one. His has the 1.5 liter but it has really good room especially the trunk and the back seats that fold down. It's considered a mid size car but looks like a full size one. The Premier is definitely what I have my eyes on with that 2.0 liter putting out 250 hp it will do very nice for a road trip anywhere and still get great mpg.

[@Me-eb3wv]

It’s not in production anymore

[@nithishjvj8736]

From a country that has the least to do with Chevy and man we missed this masterpiece

[@jacobbakko3679]

I have the 2016 with a 1.5. It is definitely slow, coming from a 2011 Chrysler 300 v6 and a 95 thunderbird V8. That said, it’s the most comfortable and best handling carbIve had. And the infotainment works great.

[@paktype]

So the 1.5 liter turbo is "underwhelming". That tears it for me.

[@wrotenwasp]

+paktype Aren't motorcycles engines about that size? That car has to weigh about 3500 pounds. That turbo must be working it's ass off, especially when you have 4 people in the car and a trunk full of luggage. What's next, a 1.0 L with a turbo with 50 pounds of boost?

Then they usually claim it is who is mistaken and I must be at least 6'4" or something absurd like that.

[@edgarserrano8867]

Perfect description of the car, I have a the premier one, it is very nice looking car and fully loaded for safety and entertainment, it is very powerful and have a nice ride, doing 85 mph and engine speed only around 2100-2200 rpm, passing on the highway is easy, minimum noise in the cab, excellent job chevy.

I just picked up a 2016 Buick Regal. Just as you stated in the Malibu, I'm very happy with how the controls are laid out. The physical buttons for important things is well appreciated. Also the manual shift mode for the Trans is fun but get rid of the shift denied! If I want to shift into the next gear under 2000 rpm let me do it, make the denial limited strictly to conditions that would damage things.

How is 27 MPG city a good rating, especially for a 1.5 made in 2015?

[@Tuppoo94]

+Dick Pickles Because it's a pretty big car?

[@ShipWreckAndHaloFan]

Tuppoo94 Stil. 27 MPG is almost pickup truck territory, seems strange

[@Tuppoo94]

Dick Pickles Pickup trucks get that on the highway, not in the city.

[@OSTKCabal]

+Dick Pickles Umm. I think you need to look at those numbers again. An average truck or mid-to-large SUV is going to be extremely lucky to get 27MPG in pure highway cruising. The new Malibu gets that in stop-and-go city traffic, and up to 37MPG on the highway.

[@43854586]

+Dick Pickles Horsepower is horsepower. It doesn't matter if the power is coming from a 3.5 liter or a 1.5. The cars use turbochargers to make up for their lack of displacement. Thus when they're off turbo boost, they should consume that of a 1.5, when they're on turbo boost, more like a 3.5. You can't get power from nothing, gasoline has 32.4 megajoules of energy in 1 liter, it takes X amount of fuel + oxygen to make y amount of horsepower.

[@sasjadevries]

3:40 really? you could just connect the seatbelts before you sit down, so that you sort of sit on top of them. And is there any guarantee the teens won't find out the immobilisers in GM cars are easy to hack? They were just using resistance sensors in the lock (a pot meter could be used to hack it), and I don't think they've changed it. (The immobiliser is the things that differentiate the keys, it just has to be like that since the shape of the key is the same)

[@OSTKCabal]

+sasja de vries ...or they could buckle the seatbelt.

[@jean-daniellabranche8764]

I was wondering about fuel shutoff, an engine crankshaft is on hydrodynamic bearings. Meaning it has to spin to get subricated. The startup and shutoff of the engine is where you get the wear of these bearings. Using the shutoff technology at every redlights multiply by a huge factor the "normal" amount of start-stop cycles of an engine causing a faster wear of the components. Am I wrong or are the manufacturers using a different technology to avoid the phenomenon?

[@jean-daniellabranche8764]

Lubricated instead of subricated

[@EddyMolina]

Do you have a review on the 2017 model?

[@brunoignaciogi]

remember the time when we say 301+ views? 360p it the new thing!

[@TCGuy02]

I don't know much about turbo setups, but can you explain the term "open wastegate" on a turbocharged engine? If you pull the hose off the wastegate wouldn't it be considered a "closed wastegate"? Or does "open wastegate" have a different meaning?

[@FerpiliciousProducts]

So an open wastegate is essentially a closed wastegate. It allows the exhaust gas to pass through the exhaust wheel allowing your turbo to spin longer (creates excess heat not a good idea). The reason it's called open is cause the wastegate hose is open, not the wastegate. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but that's essentially the setup. You can also run an external wastegate and not have it recirc, which would essentially be an open wastegate in the literal sense. They're super loud, had the setup on my DSM.

[@TCGuy02]

Also, if you run an open wastegate, beside it creating too much heat, can you blow your engine from too much boost since the wastegate is not letting out excess gas? Or does it act somewhat like anti-lag to keep the turbo spinning and make you stay at a set boost pressure?

[@FerpiliciousProducts]

+TC Guy it can go either way. Odds are your turbo would go before your motor. You can easily push out more psi, although you aren't tuned for it and asking for trouble.

[@ahastar1141]

I honestly think if the numbers are this bad, there should almost be a transmission I mobilizer that won't allow the driver to shift out of park unless they have their seat belt buckled and all the passengers the car sense do as well. Yes there are emergency situations where having this feature may not be good, but I think in 95% of cases this would be an effective strategy to make sure people are buckling up

[@DylanGalman]

Hey Jason, I had a request, if you would be able to make a video for me and other viewers about how synchronizers work... I don't know much about them unfortunately, but I heard that in order to do something called "double clutch," you need synchros. If you would make a video about what double clutching is and what it does and what synchros are and what they do, I would highly appreciate it!

something I do find funny is I had a Plymouth breeze, I had to sell it and miss it once in a while. it was a 1997, 5 speed manual, 2.0L, 4 doors, and when I sold the vehicle it had about 205K miles (I believe it still works for the new owners). In PA I could get 36 to 40 MPG but if I wanted to I could spin the wheels free in first and chirp in second. so not a speed demon, but my dad and I would get giggles with how it is 19 years old now and got actual mileage equal to or higher than most hybrid's EPA estimates (which seem to be typically 25% higher than what it actually ends up being). I am hoping hybrids get smart as they get better but I thought I would mention that some vehicles were made well enough that when cared for could have some fun, get good mileage, and since they are a decade or so old they are usually cheap to get ahold of

[@IIGrayfoxII]

37 USMPG highway from a 1.5? What a sad attempt GM, what a sad attempt. my old civic hatchback which was a 1.8 did 37USMPG on the highway. The Malibu needs a ECU update to make it alittle more aggressive on fuel economy.

[@evanganske9240]

Actually, it is a 1.5L Turbocharged I4 that makes 184LB-FT of torque (pretty much double the power of a piece of junk Civic). Not to mention that the 2016 Malibu is one of the longest cars in the mid-size sedan segment and is nearly twice the length of a Civic Hatch...

[@IIGrayfoxII]

+Evan Ganske\ since when is 194" pretty much twice as much as 167"? or 184lb/ft pretty much twice as much as 129lb/ft? My hatch had plenty of leg room in the back, not to mention it could carry large heavy objects with ease

[@IIGrayfoxII]

[@warrenwinslow4266]

Perhaps it should be a personal choice. The assholes legislating seat belts also legislated tiny cars. Why is there no full sized car?

[@R777-RLM]

I'll bet Chevy is excited about this car. They get to charge mid-size car prices and save money using an engine from a Geo Metro, except unfortunately it wasn't designed by Suzuki. These small hardworking, more complex turbo engines sound great, but they Don't have the longevity and reliability of a larger NA 4 cylinder or especially a small smooth V6. My own Jetta 1.8L Turbo has had more problems than any NA gas engine car I've owned, and the best mileage it has gotten was 26mpg. I could have bought a Camry V6 for the cost of maintenance and repairs on the Jetta. I'm all for advancement, but there are better ways. Also what did Chevy save by cutting out all those holes on the suspension control arms, 1/2 pound, leave them solid and retain greater strength.

[@OSTKCabal]

+ron mortensen You're comparing a German engine to an American engine. They're very, very different in their build quality and reliability; specifically because the VW Jetta is a small, low-cost German sedan that isn't particularly known for long-term reliability or dependability. Small turbocharged engines is the direction we're headed, like it or not. I don't see them as an issue at all.

[@AdolfHitler-xp1nx]

+OSTKCabal "Small turbocharged engines is the direction we're headed, like it or not." speak for yourself im throwing a supercharger on my 01 540i sportwagon for 8k all in 538hp and 484lb ft from the otherwise stock 4.4l v8 also stock i get 15mpg if you want to bend over and let "progress" have its way with you then that's your choice lmao

[@OSTKCabal]

+Adolf Hitler Alright, Hitler. I, for one, quite enjoy the way small turbocharged engines drive. Having the torque available at significantly lower RPMs is certainly nice for city driving.

[@AdolfHitler-xp1nx]

OSTKCabal i have no problem with small turbocharged engines it is the way forward for reduced emissions and whatnot im a keen driver though so i prefer what gives me the power right now not in 1 second even 1/2 a second of lag is pretty MEH in my book i guess ive been spoiled by my current collection of vehicles which all have relatively big engines and are NA i get turbos can make really good power (and a nice noise too i like the anti-lag multi gunshot variety) the forward march of turbo progress is good for me though since 2 of my cars are investments and the more new cars that are turbo the more $$$ my investments will grow so yeah in that case TURBOS FOR EVERYONE :D

[@R777-RLM]

+Adolf Hitler I've studied cars for 36 years, and I remember how auto reliability suffered back in the late 70's and 80's due to, reduced emissions, and increased MPG requirements. A larger NA engine should at least be offered.

Is there anything Chevy has done to solve the heat problem of the turbo ? Will the turbo melt the engine in a long run ?

[@zuleimavaldez6377]

almost as fast as my v6 makes 0_60. in 6.1 seconds amaizing

[@worldhello1234]

@2:43 They don't want to because they don't expect bad things to happen. They take a calculated risk but the more important point is the freedom to do that.

[@JeffBazell]

So glad you mentioned seat belts and teens. Horrible stats.

[@lt1_sam78]

Is there going to be a V6 option?

[@EngineeringExplained]

+Vrykolakas X 2.0T option.

[@oliver24x]

I would be happy with a 1.5 with a turbo that has 160 HP... xD

[@ahastar1141]

Wtf is going on with teens these days. I mean is it "cool" not to wear one or are teens just lazy? You know what else is cool? Graduating college, landing your first big job, getting married, having kids, and retiring. It literally takes a 5 second to do and is well worth it

[@obviousyl]

More rants please!!

[@bassistdc]

Not a Camry clone in styling like the previous model. I'd prefer a v6 option. I don't like turbo charging.

Really bums me out my '96 chevy pickup doesnt have "bluetooth" or a computer screen in the dash. No GPS. Amazing I can get from point A to point B. Same with my 2005 Impala SS. No bluetooth or computer screen.....what will I do?

[@UnlimitedProduction1]

Yeah it's a nice feature to have but not necessary. Still it's a nice car. What do you think about Impalas? I'm in the market for a car and was looking into an Impala actually

[@worldhello1234]

It is necessary if you are a convenient hipster instead of a hillbilly. =)

[@wrotenwasp]

I like that! Funny guy. What could possibly give you the impression that I'm a hillbilly? Couldn't be my picture could it?

[@iGamer97]

What happened to the 5.7L diesel and the 305 V8? :/ mine has a v8

[@kingfishersingh2813]

do you have a chevy ss/ holden commodore ss?

[@iGamer97]

Malibu Classic Wagon

[@kingfishersingh2813]

+HaconBacon what year?

[@iGamer97]

1980, my comment was made as a joke. They share nothing in common apart from the chevy emblem :) . New midsize vehicles don't come with V8's because 4-cyl makes the same power.

[@kingfishersingh2813]

+HaconBacon ok, i suspected you were joking, have a nice day :)

[@unintentionallyfire]

Eh a lot of European mid-size sedans have 1.6/1.5 engines, bit I do think generally they are a bit smaller than the US mid-size sedans (VW make a European Passat and a USDM focused Passat).
