Bezza more fuel-efficient than Axia? Top 5 most efficient cars under RM 100k 01

For most car buyers in Malaysia, fuel consumption is one of the key factors in their buying decision, which is why we subject every car to the WapCar fuel consumption test. To date, we’ve tested well over 40 cars and you can check out the full Ratings list here.

That list, however, includes cars of all types and segments. In this article, we’re narrowing the focus to cars that are priced under RM 100k.

5. Perodua Axia 1.0 AV, fuel consumption - 6.5-litre/100 km

window.googletag = window.googletag || {cmd: []}; googletag.cmd = googletag.cmd || []; googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.defineSlot('/22557728108/my_article_fourthp_under_pc', [ 728, 90 ], 'div-gpt-ad-1685525140735-0').addService(googletag.pubads()); googletag.pubads().enableSingleRequest(); googletag.pubads().collapseEmptyDivs(); googletag.enableServices(); });
googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1685525140735-0'); });

After driving for 113.3 km and refuelling 7.323 litres, a calculated fuel consumption of 6.5-litre/100 km was obtained.

Two fuel consumption tests were conducted for the Toyota Vios. The first test returned 6.0 l/100km from a 103.9 km trip (50% city, 50% highway) and refuelling 6.229 litres.

Similarly to the Toyota Vios and Honda City, we’ve conducted the fuel consumption test twice on the Nissan Almera.

Fuel consumption result from one test. After several tests, a figure of 5.8-litre/100km was obtained.

2020 Perodua Bezza 1.3 Review

And thus concludes the list of the most fuel-efficient cars we’ve tested so far that are priced under RM 100k.

We'd like to note that the Perodua Myvi wasn't tested according to the WapCar Ratings standard and was disqualified. We expect that the Myvi would have made it to this list otherwise as owners have reported figures of around 6 to 6.5-litre/100 km.
