The 2021 Chevrolet Malibu Premier for buyers

No 2021 Chevrolet Malibu Premier is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. This page sets out the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu Premier for buyers, in plain words.

Before you sign for the Malibu

In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. 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. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.

What the figures tell you

The 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. 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.

Fuel use is rated 7.3 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 22 litres. Driving 300 km costs roughly $33.96 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Space, size and seats

Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. In plain terms, its 368 litres of luggage space hold about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

A good match for

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

A longer test drive

Drive the Malibu on your commute before you commit to it. A test week in the Malibu tells you more than any review. Rent the Malibu first, and buy only if it fits your life.

What it costs to run

At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.32 in fuel. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Year and trim

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. Compare the Premier with the other trims of the same year before you decide.
