Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Honda Accord than the Chevrolet Malibu, due to its greater head- and legroom. Offering just a little more front head- and legroom than the Chevrolet Malibu, drivers may find the Honda Accord a little roomier and somewhat more comfortable.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Whether you pick the Chevrolet Malibu or the Honda Accord, it's going to cost you about the same.

Dimensions
The Chevrolet Malibu is about the same width as the Honda Accord. When looking at overall length, the Chevrolet Malibu takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Honda Accord.

Performance
The Chevrolet Malibu has less horsepower than the Honda Accord, so it will probably be somewhat slower.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the engine of the Chevrolet Malibu does a much better job of transmitting power to the wheels than the Honda Accord.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Chevrolet Malibu and the Honda Accord.
