    The 2021 Chevrolet Malibu LS: before you buy

    We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2021 Chevrolet Malibu LS for sale by us right now. This page sets out the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu LS for buyers, in plain words.

    What to check on the Malibu

    There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Owners filed 90 complaints with NHTSA, most often about unknown or other, electrical system and power train; have those parts checked.

    The figures, translated

    Its powertrain is the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive. 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.

    By the EPA's combined rating of 7.3 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 22 litres. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $11.32 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,100 a year for 15,000 miles.

    Practical details

    As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. Its 368 litres of luggage space fit about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

    Who the Malibu suits

    It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

    Try before you buy

    Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Malibu answers the big questions.

    Running costs

    Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.32 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

    Year and trim

    If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
