The manufacturer recommends regular gas for each Malibu except the Premier trim with the Turbo. If that is what you have, the manufacturer recommends using premium to achieve peak performance. Regular gas will work on all gasoline powered engines. The Turbo also has a bigger fuel tank, 15.8 versus 13 gallons for the non turbo. Of course, if you have the hybrid you will require a charging station periodically as well
