When you are in the market for a new vehicle, you might feel overwhelmed by all of the information out there about many different models. That is why doing comparisons can be so helpful, because it allows you to put two models that appear similar up side by side to examine their differences and decide which one will offer more of the features and capabilities you are looking for. This comparison looks at the base models of the 2018 Buick Regal Sportback vs 2018 Chevrolet Malibu.
While the Malibu has a lower price point and higher fuel economy estimates, the Regal Sportback offers more room for passengers and cargo and has more convenience features equipped than the Malibu does, making it the better option for car shoppers overall. The Regal Sportback comes standard with features like a compass, voice recognition technology, a built-in programmable garage door opener, and LED brake lights. None of these features are available on the base trim of the 2018 Chevy Malibu. Let's take a closer look at some of the key differences between these two models!
