    Thinking of buying the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu RS?

    We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2021 Chevrolet Malibu RS for sale by us right now. Before you buy the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu RS, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

    A buyer's checks

    Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA has 90 owner complaints on file, mostly about unknown or other, electrical system and power train. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

    The figures, translated

    Power: the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo; drive: 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.

    By the EPA's combined rating of 7.3 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 22 litres. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $33.96 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

    When the Malibu makes sense

    It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

    Space, size and seats

    It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. With 368 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

    Try before you buy

    A week with the Malibu answers more than any brochure. If the Malibu is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent the Malibu for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

    Year and trim

    A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Compare the RS with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.

    Running costs

    Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.32 in fuel. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

    Java and the Malibu

    We have no location in Java; CarmaCars rents from Toronto, about 1,072 km away. We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Java starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here.
