    Buying the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu Premier

    CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu Premier; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Thinking about the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu Premier? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.

    Before you sign for the Malibu

    A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. 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.

    Under the hood

    The powertrain to know here is the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. 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. A 300 km weekend costs about $33.96 in energy at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

    Inside and out

    Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. The EPA measures its luggage space at 368 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

    A good match for

    It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

    A longer test drive

    Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent the Malibu for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

    Running costs

    At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.32 in fuel. 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.

    Choosing the right one

    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. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.

    A note on Ruby

    Ruby is about 1,005 km from our Toronto location, beyond the area we deliver to. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Ruby.
