    The 2021 Chevrolet Malibu Premier for buyers

    CarmaCars rents cars; this page helps you judge the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu Premier before you buy one elsewhere. The 2021 Chevrolet Malibu Premier for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.

    Recalls and complaints

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

    What the figures tell you

    Its powertrain is the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

    The EPA rates it at 7.3 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 22 litres. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $11.32. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,100 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

    Best uses

    It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

    Room inside

    A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. With 368 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

    Rent it for a week first

    Rent the Malibu for a week and see how it fits your life. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. If the Malibu is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.

    Year and trim

    A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

    Running costs

    A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. 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.
