2013 Chevrolet Malibu Earns Five Stars From NHTSA

Competition in the midsize sedan segment is heating up, with redesigned entries from Chevrolet, Honda, Ford and Nissan for 2013. The Chevrolet Malibu was recently crash-ested by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and earned the agency's top honors: an overall score of five stars.

The 2013 Nissan Altima was tested last week and also earned overall score of five stars. The new-for-2013 Honda Accord and Ford Fusion have yet to be tested.

This isn't your father's Chevy Malibu!

i've yet to see one on the road yet....seen about 20 new Altimas tho...

Keep it up GM, you're closing the gap on the Japanese brands and it's driving all to make better/safer cars! Glad to see you in the thick of things! I hope you've revised engine/drivetrain precision! Styling has never been an issue however!
