Quick answer
A 2023 Chevrolet Malibu in good condition with average mileage (about 37,500 miles) is worth roughly $17,700 in a private-party sale — a fair range of $16,300 to $19,100, or about $20,350 at a dealer. 2023 is not on our years-to-avoid list, so condition, history, and maintenance matter more than the model year here.
