What are the functions of the buttons in the 2014 Malibu?
2 Answers
The following is an introduction to the function buttons in the 2014 Malibu: 1. "OFF" button: Represents turning off. 2. "ESP": Body stability system. 3. Button with an "S" inside a gear: This is the sport mode button, similar to the "S" gear (sport mode) in Volkswagen cars, which is referred to as the power mode in Chevrolet's explanation. Additional information: 1. Exterior: The external design is inspired by Chevrolet's classic legendary sports cars, the Corvette and Camaro, strongly reflecting a sporty style full of American power. 2. Powertrain: The 2.0L model uses an all-aluminum engine, while the 2.4L model is equipped with a SIDI direct injection engine (with plans to introduce a direct injection + turbocharged engine in the future).
Driving a 2014 Malibu daily for commuting, those function buttons are super convenient. The buttons on the left side of the steering wheel handle cruise control—set the speed and you don’t even need to touch the throttle on the highway, reducing fatigue. On the right are the audio volume keys and phone buttons, allowing you to answer Bluetooth calls without taking your hands off the wheel, making it much safer. The air conditioning section on the center console features temperature knobs and airflow control—one tap into auto mode cools things down in summer, and it even supports dual-zone temperature control to keep the wife and kids from complaining about the heat. The seat heater warms your backside in winter with just a press, making early-morning rush hours way more comfortable. The door buttons manage window adjustments and side mirror tweaks—fine-tuning them while reversing gives a clear rear view. The info button near the instrument cluster toggles fuel economy displays, helping me save on gas. These little touches make daily driving hassle-free—pretty thoughtful design.
