2004 4dr Hatch 200-horsepower 3.5L V6
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Amazing fuel economy for a mid-sized peppy V6 engine. Good compromise of more than adequate power and well-above average fuel economy. Reviewers have noted the tranny is tweaked to favour fuel economy over towing ability -- perfect for most drivers. see full Chevrolet Malibu review
