    Thinking of buying the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu LT?

    We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2021 Chevrolet Malibu LT for sale by us right now. Here is the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu LT for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

    A buyer's checks

    A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Owners filed 90 complaints with NHTSA, most often about unknown or other, electrical system and power train; have those parts checked. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

    Specs, explained

    The 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo, paired with an automatic (CVT), drives it. 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. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $33.96 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

    Space and size

    As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Luggage space is 368 litres, enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

    Who it is for

    It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

    Try before you buy

    Rent first, buy later: a week with the Malibu answers the big questions. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week with the Malibu answers more than any brochure.

    Money matters

    Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $113.20 at our price setting. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.32 in fuel.

    Which one to look for

    If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.

    The Malibu and Java

    Java is about 3,178 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Java.
