    The 2017 Chevrolet Malibu LT: before you buy

    We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2017 Chevrolet Malibu LT for sale by us right now. Before you buy the 2017 Chevrolet Malibu LT, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

    Recalls and complaints

    Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

    Reading the spec sheet

    Power: the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo; drive: front-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

    At 7.8 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 23 litres of fuel. For 1,000 km, budget about $120.90 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,250 a year for 15,000 miles.

    Best uses

    It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

    Size and space

    A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. At 453 litres, the trunk fits a family's bags for a long weekend.

    Drive it on your own roads

    Drive the Malibu on your commute before you commit to it. If the Malibu is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Malibu answers the big questions.

    Picking a year and a trim

    Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

    Running costs

    The EPA estimates US$2,250 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.09 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

    The Malibu and Java

    If you need it in Java itself, send a request and we will tell you honestly whether we can help. Java is about 1,639 km from our Toronto location, beyond the area we deliver to.
