Perodua's expansion of its export business now includes Bangladesh, with the Malaysian carmaker inking a partnership with ex-Proton partners PHP Motors. For now, the range includes four models: the Aruz, Axia, Bezza, and Myvi. Managing Director of PHP Motors, Mohammed Akhter Pravez, added that the company will be assembling the models in their Chattogram factory, while working on bringing the full range of Perodua models to Bangladesh. The named models will begin sales there by the end of this m

At long last, the all-new 2023 Perodua Axia has officially been launched. Following a slurry of teases (and leaks), we now have official prices as well as confirmed spec sheets of the 4 variants on offer. As you may already know, the 2023 Axia is more expensive, courtesy of improved equipment and features across the range. Check out the following table to see how the variants stack up. Price start from RM 38,600 for the entry-level Axia 1.0 G variant and rise to RM 49,500 for the top-spec Axia 1

When it comes to entry-level cars, Perodua is no doubt the expert in cars that serve the people. The all-new D74A 2023 Perodua Axia is no exception but at the same time it has provided a pretty high benchmark for Malaysia’s most affordable car.

The Axia Electric is the latest version (3.0) of the company’s retrofit packages which started with MyKar 1.0 back in 2020, which you might remember was a peculiar composite-bodied prototype with a janky interior, based on a second-generation (G

Up till a couple of years ago, it was perfectly fine for the Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA) to publish sales breakdown by model, but the newly-enforced Competition Act 2010 forbids MAA from doing so, claiming that it prevents cartel-like behaviour among car manufacturers. As such, some brands like Mercedes-Benz no longer share such data, while BMW only share on a quarterly basis. The list of best-selling models in Malaysia is no longer publicly available, at least not from MAA, but this

In the recent years, we have welcomed some new three-cylinder engine cars to the world – the Nissan Almera 1.0 turbo, Honda City 1.0 turbo (Thailand), Proton X50, and more excitingly, the Toyota GR Yaris. Even Christian von Koenigsegg has channelled his genius into developing a 600 HP three-cylinder engine. With these developments however, some of us still remain very sceptical of them. We will never forget the underpowered three pots in tiny cars like the Perodua Kancil and Perodua Kelisa. Sure
