Collision replacement car: 2018 Chevrolet Malibu LS in Java

The 2018 Chevrolet Malibu LS: Collision replacement car

If you need a car while yours is off the road, the 2018 Chevrolet Malibu LS is one option; this page explains the car and how booking works. When your adjuster approves a rental, we can bill your insurance company directly. After a collision, your insurer may pay for the rental once your adjuster approves it.

The Malibu and Java

Selby, Lowry and Sitka are the closest places to Java on our list.

Specs, explained

The 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. 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 7.8 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 23 litres. Driving 300 km costs roughly $36.27 at our price setting.

Who rents the Malibu

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

How big it is

As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Its 368 litre trunk is enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Can you rent one?

Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Your request can name this exact car; the offer confirms what we can give you. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.

Booking with CarmaCars

It begins with your request, sent online in a few minutes, with no payment. The offer comes from a person, not a robot, and it carries the full price. Approving the offer and paying it confirms the booking.

You can check any car's calendar before you send a request. One booking runs up to 365 days, and a longer stay renews with a new agreement. The shortest notice we accept before a pickup is 2 hours.

Who can rent

We need every driver to be at least 18, with an Ontario G2 or G licence. Drivers below 26 pay a fee each day of the rental, and older drivers pay none. Payment is by a card in your name, shown with your licence at pickup.

Damage to the car is handled one of three ways: OPCF 27 on your policy, a credit card's rental car benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. We hold the deposit shortly before pickup and release it after the return. We check your licence and identity before we confirm, the same way for every renter.

Over to you
