Life has always been unfair for Norfarrah Syahirah Shaari, who was born without arms. Completing simple daily tasks that most of us take for granted, she has to complete it using only her legs. Still, not having a pair of arms has not stopped the spunky 32-year old from Perak from living an independent life. Recently, Norfarrah made a name for herself when it was reported that she has been voluntarily sewing protective gowns for medical frontliners battling Covid-19. Yes, she threads a needle wi
This RM 200m plant is why Perodua will continue using 4-speed automatics for many more years to come
Don’t expect Perodua to ditch its aging but proven 4-speed torque converter automatic transmissions anytime soon. Even as the rest of the world is trending towards CVT-type automatic transmission for city cars, Perodua’s tried and tested Akashi Kikai 4-speed automatic transmissions will continue to be sold in Malaysia for many more years to come. There’s a simple reason to that. Perodua’s customers are happy with what’s offered to them right now, so why bother changing something that’s not broke
Nearly 70 percent of Perodua owners prefer to have their cars maintained by an authorised Perodua service centre, making one of the highest, if not the highest for any automotive brand in the country. Speaking at a press conference yesterday for Perodua's 2019 business review, President and CEO Dato' Zainal Abidin Ahmad said the figure is two percent higher than the Perodua’s forecast. Last year, Perodua’s network of service centres received over 2,347,000 cars, an 8.3 percent increase over last
Considering that the Perodua Axia is already the most affordable car in Malaysia, is there a reason why you should buy the Axia second-hand? The Perodua Axia is well-known for being the entry-level car to get. At its debut, it comfortably succeeded its predecessors the Perodua Viva and Perodua Kancil without preamble thanks to the many built-in features that seem to cater to most Malaysian's needs. Yes, if ever there is an “all-Malaysian-car” it would be the Axia as Perodua has done a good job i
The Perodua Alza is a 7-seater MPV that was introduced here back in 2009, which makes it one of the oldest new cars you can purchase today. Despite being 11 years old, Perodua won’t be pulling the plug on the Alza just yet, as the company recently reiterated that it won’t be discontinued any time soon. Developing a brand-new Alza isn’t Perodua’s top priority at the moment, as the MPV market is slowing down and Perodua's main focus is SUVs. The Alza has also been Perodua’s slowest-selling model,
So, we’ve bought a Perodua Ativa for a long-term review. Having booked the car in January 2021 (way before the virtual launch), we’re one of the early customers to receive the car. All along, we've been pestering the showroom to expedite the delivery, and we're very happy that it's finally here. What did we order? We’ve opted for the AV variant with a two-tone paint job, featuring the “Pearl Delima Red” body colour and black roof. No “Gear Up” kit here, since we prefer to keep things simple and
Perodua Bezza gallery The Perodua Bezza is the company’s first-ever sedan and it competes against the Proton Saga. Let’s take a look and see how much owners are expected to pay in terms of maintenance and insurance cost for the Perodua Bezza over a 5-year period. The first service for the Perodua Bezza 1.3 costs RM 177.70, performed at the 10,000 km mark. Unlike automatic variants of the Proton Saga that requires its Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) to be replaced at every 60,000-km interval,
(Model | Gallery) Malaysians can obtain their driving license at the age of 17 and most of us are behind the wheel almost immediately after. With over 116,000 km worth of tarmac across the country and the limited modes of public transportations, motor vehicles are still the primary way of getting around in Malaysia. Cars have and always will be, a luxury. Unfortunately, for many families, it has turned to a necessity. It is their means of getting to work, sending their children to school or even
(2019 Perodua Aruz Prices & Specs | Gallery) With roughly 25,000 units sold to date since its introduction back in January, the Perodua Aruz has proven itself to be a popular model. This is despite the fact that the Perodua Aruz is currently Perodua's most expensive model on sale right now, priced from RM 72,900. Exterior – Looks like the Toyota Rush Perodua Aruz looks like Toyota Rush, eh? At a glance, it's tough trying to differentiate the Perodua Aruz from the Toyota Rush, but there are some
The question that many of you guys have been waiting for is almost here – how well does the upcoming 2021 Perodua D55L drive? Keep in mind that this review was done at Perodua's Rawang test track, but no photos were allowed. Apart from opening bookings a week ago, Perodua has only revealed estimated prices of the D55L. The D55L range kicks off with the X variant, priced from RM 62,500, while the H variant is price from RM 67,300. As for the range-topping AV variant, its estimated price is RM 73,
Perodua has uploaded a pretty adorable 3D-animated video to show off its vehicles’ safety features on their YouTube channel. The video also possibly hinted that there might be something in store for the Axia Style. We can easily admire the colourful animation as a Bezza swerves round a roadworks obstacle to demonstrate its ABS and EBD or even how smooth the Aruz moves up the hill so effortlessly due to HSA. But something interesting comes along as the Axia Style appears in the video. Perodua's l
You can say that you want about Perodua. Good if you like the company, but the company couldn’t be bothered if you think lowly of its budget cars anyway. Since launching the first Kancil in 1994, the company has developed a laser-like focus on its customers, giving them what they want, which turns out to be just very regular cars that are cheap to buy, cheap to run, cars that go about their duties with zero drama. Perodua ended September by recording its highest ever monthly sales of 25,035 unit
Once Japan’s No.1 selling car, the Honda Jazz (sold as Fit in Japan) is now languishing in Japan’s sales charts. On certain months, it even bumped off the top-5 list, which is now dominated by Toyota. The new TNGA platform Toyota Yaris (not available outside of Australia, Europe, Japan) is now the No.1 selling car in Japan, followed by the Toyota Raize (twin of Daihatsu Rocky, donor car for upcoming Perodua D55L), Corolla, and Harrier. In certain months, the even the Toyota Alphard sells more th
If you’ve ever car-pooled with a Perodua Myvi Advance owner you would be left in awe of their ability to go through tolls without needing to lift a finger. The built-in SmartTag reader is the most thoughtful device ever to be included in a car and it has further given the Myvi a huge lead as the best value-for-money car in our market. I know what you’re thinking, when you purchase a SmartTag device, we were given a holder to attach the device to our screens. But the trend of breaking wind shield
With the on-going Covid-19 putting a damper on businesses, you would expect that a budget car brand like Perodua, whose range of lower priced A- and B-segment cars are bought mostly by lower income B40 group consumers, will be affected more than higher range brands. Actually the opposite is true. While the government’s temporary suspension of sales tax have artistically boosted market demand, Perodua dealers are reporting a higher number of customers downgrading from Japanese brands to a Perodua
NVH stands for Noise, Vibration, and Harshness – a term we use to interpret the refinement of a car. The lower the NVH, the more refined and comfortable a car is. So, what’s the Perodua Ativa’s NVH level? Before we start, we'd like to note that this is based on both objective measurements and subjective impressions as it is rather difficult to quantify the refinement of a car. With that out of the way, let's dive in. Noise - Feels quieter than the numbers suggest Starting with the “N” part of NV
If you’ve been following our website or YouTube channel, you would know that we have just bought a Perodua Ativa. We’re not the first customer to receive the car but we’ve got it early enough to still be able to turn heads at the traffic light. The head-turning effect will wear out eventually, so we’re enjoying its as much as we can for the time being. In our earlier post and YouTube video, there’s one thing we forgot to mention as pointed out by one of our readers – the chronology of booking, p
(Perodua Axia 2019 | Gallery) New Perodua Axia 2019 is an A-segment hatchback that was introduced in Malaysian back in 2014. Now for 2019, it has been upgraded with electronic stability control and autonomous emergency braking (ASA 2.0) - the cheapest new car in Malaysia these features. How Much Is the new Perodua Axia 2019? Prices start from RM 24,090 for the base ‘driving school’ E manual. Being a ‘driving school’ spec means that this is as barebones as it gets; forget niceties like a radio or
The Toyota Raize has been making quite some moves in Japan. It even overtook the Corolla to be the best-selling car in the Land of the Rising Sun. We can’t wait to see how the little crossover turns out when it comes over to Malaysia as the Perodua D55L. But the Raize isn’t just stirring up Malaysian hearts and attracting Japanese buyers, it also triggered some executives down at Honda. Unlike Toyota which had been churning out new SUVs and crossovers like the Corolla Cross and Yaris Cross latel
Both the Perodua Bezza and Proton Saga are Malaysia’s cheapest sedans, but which one is cheaper to maintain? If you were to make a simple comparison based Proton's quoted prices for its maintenance plan, the Saga's total maintenance cost over a 5-year/100,000 km period is cheaper than the Bezza by about RM 140. The Perodua Bezza will cost RM 3,149 to maintain while the Proton Saga costs a slightly cheaper RM 3,008. That's a neglibible difference over a five-year/100,000 km period. However, keep
(2020 Perodua Bezza Spec and Prices | Gallery) | (2019 Proton Saga Spec and Prices | Gallery) As Perodua recently unveiled the updated 2020 Bezza, the burning question on everyone’s mind is simple - should I pick the new Bezza or the equally-new Proton Saga? Fuel efficiency - Bezza is king, naturally Since its introduction back in 2016, the Perodua Bezza has cemented its fuel efficiency capabilities, thanks to its featherlight body, fuel-sipping engines, and slippery aerodynamics. According to P
Malaysia’s number one car manufacturer recently held their full-year review, sharing their 2019 performance and what to expect from them in the near future. Which model sold the most? As expected, the Perodua Myvi (81,966) continues to lead the sales chart, followed by the Axia (67,267), Bezza (45,656), Aruz (30,115), and Alza (15,337). In total, Perodua sold 240,341 cars in 2019 – gaining almost a 40% share of the Malaysian market (TIV 604,775 units). While we move into 2020, Perodua said that
Later this year, Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia will be returning to the MPV segment with its first-ever budget MPV – the Xpander. The last MPV that Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia sold here was the Grandis. Breaking the Toyota Avanza and Daihatsu Xenia’s duopoly Since the Xpander’s introduction in Indonesia - the world's largest budget MPV market - back in 2017, it has proved to be a rather significant model for Mitsubishi – it is the first car ever to break the Toyota Avanza and Daihatsu Xenia’s duopol
Before you brush this off as yet another criticism against our own domestic products, let us make it clear that the Perodua Myvi is probably the best point A to point B car on sale right now. As a daily car, the Perodua Myvi is close to perfection. It does its job so well that it’s quite hard to justify paying more for a Honda Jazz – does the Jazz have a built-in Smart Tag, or AEB? Guessed so. The Honda Jazz’s Ultra Seats is nice to have but how often do you even fold the rear seats? So what’s t
Coming from a family with several Perodua cars, I was looking forward to driving the 2021 Perodua Ativa. There was a lot to look forward to in terms of the powertrain, safety features, and platform. The price isn’t too bad either, being a bit pricier than the Perodua Myvi. How good is the new Perodua Ativa? Let me walk you through my experience. Exterior - An adorable thing The Perodua Ativa strikes a good balance between adorable and aggressive. There is a sense of cheerful youthfulness to the
Before we start the story, allow us to clarify: No, the Proton Exora and Perodua Aruz are not in the same segment. The Exora is an MPV while the Aruz is an SUV. But the reason we’re comparing both cars together is because they’re similarly priced (the Aruz from RM 72,900, Exora from RM 59,800; before SST exemption) and they sit 7. If you’re wondering that the Perodua Alza would be a better comparison to the Exora, allow us to explain that though the Alza sits 7, it is more of a 5+2 setup rather

No matter the reason, repainting your car to a new colour is something we have to declare to the Road Transport Department (JPJ). So, what are the procedures to do so?

In the first two months of 2021, the Hyundai Motor Group (HMG)’s domestic cars market share in Korea, including that of Kia, reached 78.5 percent. After including imported cars, the combined market share of Hyundai and Kia in Korea stands at 65.4 percent. In 2015, when there was more competition from other domestic manufacturers like Renault-Samsung, GM Korea, and Ssangyong, HMG’s domestic car market share stood 12 percent lower, at 66.5 percent.
