The 2021–2025 Malibu uses the same key setup, so everything on this page applies to those years too. The full picture is on the Chevrolet Malibu key guide.
2024 Chevrolet Malibu: key facts
- Key type
- Smart / proximity key
- Push-to-start
- Yes
- Transponder chip
- Varies by trim — we confirm by VIN
- Programming
- OBD
- All keys lost
- We can originate new keys on site
Catalog coverage of the 46E chip ends around 2021, and aftermarket HYQ4ES fobs for 2021+ Chevrolets are sold with NXP Hitag Pro ID49 chips — the exact changeover year is not well documented, so we confirm from the FCC ID on the fob. Malibu's final model year is 2025.
Same key system as the 2021–2025 Malibu
Chevrolet kept the Malibu's key system unchanged across 2021–2025, so everything about replacing a 2024 key — blanks, programming, and what happens if every key is lost — matches the rest of that run. The full year-by-year breakdown lives in our Chevrolet Malibu key guide.
What drives the price is the key type, whether you still have a working key, and where the car is parked. There's more on Chevrolet programming in general on our Chevrolet key page.
