The 2018 Chevrolet Malibu Premier for buyers

No 2018 Chevrolet Malibu Premier is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Before you buy the 2018 Chevrolet Malibu Premier, here is what the figures say and what to look at.

Before you sign for the Malibu

A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. There are 6 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

What the specs mean

It is powered by the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Fuel use is rated 7.8 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 23 litres. Every 100 km costs about $12.09 in fuel at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,250 a year for 15,000 miles.

What the Malibu is like

As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. The trunk holds 368 litres by the EPA's count: about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Who rents the Malibu

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.

Rent it for a week first

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 with the Malibu answers more than any brochure.

Money matters

The EPA estimates US$2,250 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.09 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $120.90 at our price setting.

Choosing the right one

Compare the Premier with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
