The 2011 Chevrolet Malibu pricing won’t be announced until shortly before the car goes on sale. But the 2011 Malibu should not see major increases over 2010 prices and is likely to return with a four-level lineup that consists of the entry-level LS model, volume-selling 1LT and 2LT models, and the top-of-the-line LTZ model.
   Expect 2011 Chevrolet Malibu LS pricing to start around $23,000, not including options. (All prices in this review include the manufacturer’s mandated destination fee; Chevy’s destination fee for 2010 was $720.) As for 2010, the 2011 Malibu LS probably will come only with the four-cylinder engine and four-speed automatic transmission.
   Expect the 2011 Chevrolet Malibu LTZ to be priced from about $27,850. Leather upholstery – available in two-tone – is standard. So is Bluetooth, heated front seats, leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, eight-way power driver’s seat, power front passenger seat, heated mirrors, and remote engine start. Many of these features are options on Malibu 1LT and 2LT models.
