    The figures, translated

    The 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo, paired with an automatic (CVT), drives it. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

    Combined fuel use is 7.3 L/100 km: about 22 litres for 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $113.20 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

    Who rents the Malibu

    It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

    What the Malibu is like

    Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. EPA lists 368 litres of luggage space, enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

    A longer test drive

    Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. A week with the Malibu answers more than any brochure. Rent the Malibu for a week and see how it fits your life.

    Narrowing it down

    Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.

    Running costs

    Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
