It's the second time I rent an American car, the previous time it was a Mustang Ecoboost in D.C. Next time that I go to North America it will have to be a V8 before we fully transition to E.Vs
Yeah, I noticed going through the wikipedia page that it is made in Ontario. American car, made in Canada, based an older German platform (Mercedes E-Class W211).
lol the Malibus on the driver door have a huge sticker with an American flag saying Proudly made from the heart of USA (or something like that). A true American car.
Yeah the Charger and Chrysler 300 are based on the E Class and I believe partly on the older S Class too which may explain why they handle actually really well and a lot better than other non luxury brands. lol The Charger/Chrysler 300 have a unique ability to look really big on the outside but on the inside they are not that big relative to their exterior sizes - the Malibu is actually bigger at the back despite looking smaller on the outside. Not sure what happened to all the exterior size
