The Maluri station is an integrated station for light rapid transit (LRT) and mass rapid transit (MRT) services located on the eastern fringe of Kuala Lumpur near and named after Taman Maluri (Malay; English: Maluri Garden), a residential housing estate. The station is located along Jalan Cheras (Cheras Road) opposite the AEON-JUSCO Taman Maluri shopping centre. Beside the station is the Kerayong River.

The station comprises an elevated LRT station serving the LRT Ampang Line (formerly known as STAR, and the Ampang and Sri Petaling Lines) which was opened in 1996, and the underground MRT station of the MRT Sungai Buloh-Kajang Line which was opened on 17 July 2017. The two stations are connected via a paid-area-to-paid-area elevated pedestrian linkway.

Under the station naming rights granted by Mass Rapid Transit Corporation Sdn Bhd (MRT Corp), the MRT station is called the Aeon-Maluri MRT Station.

The older elevated station serves the LRT Ampang Line which is built according to the standard design of the Ampang Line elevated stations.

It comprises two side platforms flanking the double elevated tracks, above a concourse level where the fare gates are located. Both platforms can be reached from the concourse level via stairways and escalators. There were no elevators, and hence, the station was not disabled-friendly until they were fitted in 2015.

The MRT station is one of the seven underground stations of the MRT Sungai Buloh-Kajang Line. The underground station is built directly beneath Jalan Cheras. The station has two underground levels - a concourse level with fare gates, customer service office, toilets and machinery rooms - and a platform below with an island platform configuration.

The theme given for the design of the station is "New Generation" and features colourful panels on the exterior and interior walls of the station.

Maluri MRT station is the last underground station (towards Kajang).
