    Thinking of buying the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu RS?

    No 2021 Chevrolet Malibu RS is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Before you buy the 2021 Chevrolet Malibu RS, here is what the figures say and what to look at.

    Recalls and complaints

    Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done.

    Under the hood

    The engine is the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT). 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. At our price setting, it costs about $11.32 to drive 100 km. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,100 a year for 15,000 miles.

    Best uses

    It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

    Inside and out

    A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. In plain terms, its 368 litres of luggage space hold about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

    A longer test drive

    Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.

    Year and trim

    Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.

    What it costs to run

    Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
