2009 Chevrolet Malibu and Tahoe Hybrid – American Hybrid Cars Reborn

It's not that some of the American hybrid electric vehicles are hot sellers because American buyers are suddenly motivated by some patriotic thoughts of 'buying American' only.It is solely because American auto makers offer you new hybrid cars with comparatively moderate price tags than their competitors such as Toyota and Honda hybrid.

If you are thinking of an affordable family sedan that will save fuel expenses in the long run–think about the 2009 Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid.The all new Chevy Malibu competes head-to-head against the class of 2009 Toyota Camry Hybrid and 2009 Nissan Altima Hybrid.

Why Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid?

In the 2008 model year Chevrolet released its brand new Malibu in the line of its midsize hybrid sedans.The 2009 Malibu Hybrid has undergone a minor facelift.The new17-inch wheels replace the old 16-inch wheels while electronic stability control and a four-cylinder engine paired with a six-speed automatic transmission are now standard for all trims.The powertrain combination gives this Chevrolet hybrid sedan the much needed power boost improving acceleration and fuel economy simultaneously.

The other aspects you should consider while buying a Chevy Malibu Hybrid are–superb exterior and interior styling,spacious cabin with comfy seats,quiet and smooth ride and high scores in crash tests.The basic LS trim comes with power windows,locks and mirrors and anti-lock brakes while stepping up further to LT will get you the audio and cruise controls on the steering wheel along with heated front seats and Bluetooth at a price of $25,375.

Compared to Toyota's 30-kilowatt electric motor kicking in 40 horsepower to help it cruising on electric power only the 2009 Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid's 4-kilowatt electric motor propels it up to a mere 3mph.Though,the Chevy Malibu lacks theperformance of Toyota hybrid with its single mode hybrid system,it still manages a combined 29mpg EPA rating.GM assures improvement by introducing a dual-mode hybrid powertrain in 2010 Chevy Malibu Hybrid.

Why Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid?

For buyers with higher towing needs and greater passenger capacity GM offers the 2009 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid.It is the first full-size hybrid SUV to implement a two-mode hybrid system that slashed fuel consumption up to 50% compared to its regular counterpart.Chevrolet's dual-mode hybrid system proves most efficient especially in stop-and-go driving conditions.

The Tahoe Hybrid depends on a beastly 6.0L V8 with Active Fuel Management technology.Its cylinder deactivation system virtually turns the V8 in to a V4 whenever driving demand is low.There are two 60-kilowatt generators encapsulated inside a specialized transmission to provide additional power.

Aerodynamically designed front facade,a lowered chassis,low rolling-resistance tires and the use of aluminum in the car's hood,tailgate and wheels make Tahoe Hybrid faster achieving a towing capacity of over 6000 pounds.You may consider the other crossover SUVs like GMC Acadia or Buick Enclave–both offering similar mileage and passenger capacity as of Chevy Tahoe Hybrid.But when maximum towing and easy handling are major concerns the 2009 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid is a wise choice.

Conclusion

The American hybrid cars still have miles to go to catch up with their Japanese competitors.But both the 2009 Chevy Malibu and Chevy Tahoe hybrids combine value,creature comfort,vehicle styling and quality to hit a sweet spot in between–which is a main consideration for average car buyers.
