You assessment is perhaps a bit harsh, but I don&#x27;t think it deserves the downvotes. The Chevy Malibu is not a small car. In Europe the design was sold as Opel Vectra&#x2F;Signum which was actually a &quot;large family car&quot; by European standards. It&#x27;s the  largest sedan that GM sold under the European Opel&#x2F;Vauxhall badges; to get a bigger car, you got a minivan.
