2014$7,829$7,571 – $8,055

The Chevrolet Malibu's current nationwide average price is $15,429, and its lowest point over the past year was $15,429. Recently, prices have come down for the 2023, 2024, and 2025 models, making now a good time to shop recent model years.

Is the Chevrolet Malibu a good car?

Yes — the Chevrolet Malibu is a solid used-car choice if you want a roomy, comfortable sedan with easy-to-use tech and strong value. The all-generations owner rating is 4.3/5 across every model year in the data.

Owners repeatedly praise the Malibu for its smooth ride, comfort, and good fuel economy. They also like the spacious cabin and user-friendly technology, which make it an easy car to live with every day.

Expert reviews rate the 2017 and 2016 models among the highest across all years.

The main tradeoffs in recent expert-tested years are the standard engine's modest acceleration, a cabin that can feel less refined than some rivals, and road noise that can be noticeable in some versions.

33.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.

Are Chevrolet Malibu models reliable?

Owners consistently describe the Malibu as comfortable, efficient, and easy to live with, and expert reviews echo that it delivers a practical, well-rounded driving experience. Across the lineup, the Malibu also earns praise for its smooth ride, roomy cabin, and user-friendly features.

  • Owners rate the Chevrolet Malibu between 4 and 5 out of 5 stars across all model years in the data.

For used buyers, long-term ownership risk is best managed by choosing a later model year with a strong history report and a well-kept service record.

What should I look for when buying a used Chevrolet Malibu?

  • Fuel efficiency: 46 mpg in combined driving

Which Chevrolet Malibu trim should I buy?

The 2017 Chevrolet Malibu offers these trims:

  • Malibu L: The entry trim starts the lineup and gives you the Malibu's core sedan formula at the lowest price point.
  • LS: A step up from the base model, this trim sits in the middle of the lineup for shoppers who want a balance of value and equipment.
  • LT: This is the best-value trim for many buyers, since it sits in the sweet spot between affordability and added features.
  • Hybrid: This trim adds hybrid efficiency and is the choice for shoppers who want the Malibu's fuel-saving side.
  • Premier: The top trim adds the 2.0-liter turbo engine, the 9-speed automatic, and the most upscale equipment, making it the pick for buyers who want the strongest performance and the fullest feature set.

What Chevrolet Malibu do most buyers choose?

The Chevrolet Malibu years with the most listings are 2024, 2023, and 2025.
