The figures, translated

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.

Combined fuel use is 7.8 L/100 km: about 23 litres for 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $120.90 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,250 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Who rents the Malibu

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Living with the Malibu

As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. The EPA lists 453 litres for luggage, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.

Drive it on your own roads

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 and see how it fits your life. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.

Picking a year and a trim

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Compare the L with the other trims of the same year before you decide.

What it costs to run

A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. 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.
