The 2016 Chevrolet Malibu LT for buyers

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2016 Chevrolet Malibu LT for sale by us right now. The 2016 Chevrolet Malibu LT for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.

Recalls and complaints

In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

What the figures tell you

The powertrain here is the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive and a 6-speed automatic. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Its combined rating is 7.8 L/100 km, which means roughly 23 litres for 300 km. A 300 km weekend costs about $36.27 in energy at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,250 a year for 15,000 miles.

Size and space

As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. It is 4.92 m long. Check the size of a tight parking spot. The EPA measures its luggage space at 368 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Good uses for the Malibu

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

A longer test drive

Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Drive the Malibu on your commute before you commit to it. Rent the Malibu for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

Running costs

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $120.90 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,250 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

Which one to look for

If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

A note on Knobs

If you need it in Knobs itself, send a request and we will tell you honestly whether we can help. Knobs is about 692 km from our Toronto location, beyond the area we deliver to.
