Chevrolet Malibu: Throughout the Years

The Chevy Malibu has been around for so long now, until its likely that you or someone you know has or will own one at some point.

The Malibu has long been a bread-and-butter staple of the Chevrolet brand's midsized car lineup, though it has taken different forms over the years, such as the Malibu MAXX. The Malibu actually began its life as a trim level of the Chevelle, but was eventually promoted to being its own model in the late '70s. Past Malibus were produced in Arlington, Texas among other places, but the current North American Malibu is built at GM Fairfax Assembly in Kansas City, Kansas - where the Cadillac XT4 is also built. We'll see if the Malibu lives on for another generation, especially given sedan vs. SUV sales these days.

All of that said, here's a look at the Malibu, from past to present. Which is your favorite? I like the 2008 Malibu best personally (red car in the middle picture). Its the most similar overall to my Saturn Aura.

Volvo Wagons: Throughout the Years

 

Volvo's wagons are very nice vehicles and a solid alternative to SUVs. Here's how Volvo's wagons have evolved throughout the years. I really like the V90 and I'm usually no big fan of wagons.

Cadillac Escalade: Throughout the Years

Here’s a visual collage of the Cadillac Escalade throughout the years - from 1999 to 2021. For good reference, I also included the Escalade EXT truck. Quite a transformation, but its still king of the hill. The 2021 Escalade in the final picture I saw at McDonald Cadillac in Saginaw, MI.

Bonus: Look at the photos below of the Cadillac Allante, Eldorado and CTS for another visual of how Caddy's design language has evolved throughout the years. The Allante was partially assembled in Italy by Pininfarina and then flown over to Detroit for completion. It was a very expensive model for GM to produce and its quite rare to see one these days.
