Chevrolet confirmed that the all-new 2008 Malibu will be unveiled in January at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.

The two-tone interiors demonstrates a new level of refinement in the extremely competitive mid-size car segment.

“The next-generation Chevrolet Malibu's interior showcases the precision and detailed execution that will differentiate it among the mid-size car segment,” said Ed Peper, Chevrolet General Manager.

“The 2008 Chevy Malibu will offer a number of striking and progressive interiors that use premium materials to demonstrate quality and value not seen before in this segment.”

A sketch of the new model was revealed back in August by TheGMSource.com.

It was created by artist Chris Pauwels and based on some spy shots by Brenda Priddy.
