North America is already enjoying deliveries of the 2013 Chevy Malibu sedan, and first impressions have been excellent. The midsize sedan will also be sold in Australia, but under the Holden badge.
A number of engineering vehicles have already arrived in Australia, signaling the launch is nearing. These vehicles will serve evaluation purposes and will be tested for months both in the city and on the wide open roads, before the car is given the go-ahead for the 2013 launch.

“Our engineers have paid close attention to the vehicle’s driving dynamics, ride and handling, suspension and comfort so Malibu will be sure to meet the discerning needs of drivers in this competitive segment,” Holden Director of Integration and Safety, Ian Butler said. “This is a fantastic global car but of course we want to make sure that it goes on sale with plenty of Holden input to ensure it suits Australia's unique and varied road conditions.”
