    The 2021 Chevrolet Malibu RS: before you buy

    CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu RS for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before you buy the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu RS, here is what the figures say and what to look at.

    What to check on the Malibu

    There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Owners filed 90 complaints with NHTSA, most often about unknown or other, electrical system and power train; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

    The figures, translated

    The 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo is what moves it, 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.

    The EPA rates it at 7.3 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 22 litres. In energy, every 100 km costs about $11.32 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

    Space, size and seats

    As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. At 368 litres, the trunk fits about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

    Best uses

    It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

    Try before you buy

    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. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.

    Running costs

    Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

    Year and trim

    Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.

    A note on Ruby

    Ruby is about 249 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Ruby.
