This is from the 2014 Year end sales thread I had started that shows what the midsize market was like in 2014 (and the Malibu's place in it)

I'm surprise the Kia optima didn't sell more than the Malibu. Thanx for the graft.

Not a fan of the way they incorporated the saddle brown in that interior. Something looks off. Maybe darker carpet would look better, it just seems a little monotone with random bits of saddle brown here & there.

Looks like I overestimated the marketshare for the Accord, Camry, and Altima. Turns out they've only got 48.1% instead of the upper 50's that I was thinking.

The fact that Malibu's market share is now lower than Sonata's is embarrassing. The 8th gen is simply an embarrassment to the company.

It just shows you how competitive this segment is. I think the current Malibu is attractive, but as the numbers suggest, good looks isn't the only thing that will make a model sell.

Wonder if the person approving the 8th gen design still has their job...
