CarmaCars rents cars; this page helps you judge the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu LT before you buy one elsewhere. Thinking about the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu LT? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.

What to check on the Malibu

A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

Reading the spec sheet

The 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo is what moves it, 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.

It is rated at 7.3 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 22 litres. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $33.96 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,100 a year for 15,000 miles.

A good match for

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

Living with the Malibu

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. Its 368 litres of luggage space fit about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Try before you buy

Try the Malibu on your commute, then decide. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Rent the Malibu first, and buy only if it fits your life.

Picking a year and a trim

Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Compare the LT with the other trims of the same year before you decide.

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.32 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
