    The 2021 Chevrolet Malibu RS: before you buy

    CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu RS; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. This page puts the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu RS in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.

    Before you sign for the Malibu

    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.

    Under the hood

    Under the hood: the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo and 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 combined figure, 7.3 L/100 km, means roughly 22 litres for 300 km. Every 100 km costs about $11.32 in fuel at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

    Size and space

    As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Its 368 litres of luggage space fit about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

    Who the Malibu suits

    It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

    Try before you buy

    Rent the Malibu for a week and see how it fits your life. Rent the Malibu for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.

    What it costs to run

    A 1,000 km month costs roughly $113.20 at our price setting. 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.

    Narrowing it down

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